Life Paths

The game board features four distinct life paths: Learn It (Education), Earn It (Career/Business), Love It (Family/Relationships), and Live It (Adventure/Travel). Players can choose which paths to pursue and when to switch between them, influencing their game experience and outcomes.

Life Cards and Events

Life Cards introduce unexpected events, opportunities, and challenges. These cards can provide financial gains, losses, or opportunities to earn additional Life Points through experiences. Always follow the instructions on the card and use the LIFEPod for any required transactions.

Using the LIFEPod Electronic Unit

The LIFEPod is central to gameplay, managing all financial aspects and tracking player progress. It automatically calculates salaries, payments, and Life Points. Each player's game credit card stores their financial data. When prompted by a board space or Life Card, insert your card into the LIFEPod and follow the on-screen instructions to complete transactions or record events.

Once the game ends, each player inserts their credit card into the LIFEPod one final time. The LIFEPod will calculate each player's total Life Points, combining their accumulated wealth and life experiences. The player with the highest total Life Points wins the game.
