My thoughts

There's nothing like a classic board game and life is one of our favorites. While its gotten a little bit of a makeover for the new year, Life is still the same game I remember playing when I was a kid. Now it's even easier to get started because as soon as you open the box, you're ready to play. There's no assembly required. The spinner and and all the pieces are already attached to the board. In addition to convenience, this makes it less likely we'll lose the pieces. The object of the game is the same as it always was. As you move around the board you go through life. Go to college, choose a career, have a family, and finally retire. But whether you succeed in this journey through life will depend on the spin of the wheel. The person who has the largest nest egg at the end of the game is the winner.   Life is just as fun as it ever was and my family and I really enjoyed this modernized version.
