We give The New Game of Life two thumbs up. What a fun way to pass the time and enjoy the day together! We’ve already had to take it to the grandparent’s house so the kids to play it with the Grandparents.Īnd if you follow us on Instagram you already saw it’s a great game for all these SNOW Days with school canceled. It is a hit and I think it will get a lot more gameplay for quite a while to come. And on the other Snow Days or Holidays when we don’t have school. It is a classic that is a great addition to every family board game collection! My boys ask to play it every weekend when we have time.

NEW Life the Game Instructions!įor those that have been looking for the instructions, I found ours, and here are some close-up pictures, so you can remember how to play too!īut overall our family has absolutely loved playing the New Game of Life. Although we did find that we often ran out of $10K bills and had to do a lot of cashing in as the game progressed. And cashing in the money is a lot faster with the smaller option in bills too. The person with the most money wins! Super easy. To finish off the game you turn in all the action cards you earned, sell your house/homes, and get cash for each kid (yeah for child tax credit!). With each subsequent playing getting a little less in bonus pay. It is now simply that the first person to reach the end gets the biggest cash bonus. That’s a silly feature to miss I know, but I do miss the cool mountain passes.Īlso at the ending, you no longer have to guess if you should go to the Millionaire Mansion or not and pray that you have the most money otherwise you lose the game. So I think that was a big mistake in the game change.I would like to see future versions go back to the 2-6 players option.Īnd the cool “mountain” attachments to the board are no longer part of the game.
Right now that isn’t too much of an issue because Miss Jade isn’t old enough to play yet, but as she gets older we all won’t be able to play the game together because our family is too big. Such as only 4 people can play the New Game of Life.
So while the game still takes a good chunk of time to play it doesn’t take as long as the original game used to take.Īlthough we do miss a few features of the original. And a lot of fun action cards and more ways for everyone to gain money throughout the game.Īnd as I mentioned multiple times before the gameplay just goes a lot smoother and faster. There are also a lot more opportunities to get kids and houses in the New Game of Life than in the original as well. Now you all have an equal shot of getting the best paying career and not have to worry about getting the exact number spin to land on the right square. I personally love the idea of how they use cards to pick the careers now. But when they saw the difference in the pay day prices of career vs college career jobs they quickly changed their minds.
So at first, my kids didn’t want to go to college. If you are going to college you pay $100K before you even spin the wheel. That means it is a lot easier to do all the math in the game.Įveryone starts with $200K and before the game even begins you decide if you are going the college route or just starting with a job. Now everything is in the thousands with $10,000 being the lowest, then 50K, 100K, and 500K. Not to mention the rule sheet is a lot easier to breeze through, it is easier to find all the rules for each square too. And it is really simple for my boys to understand. I like the new design of the board and game play actually goes a lot faster. It no longer takes 20 minutes just to get the game started. But the New Game of Life has quite a bit different from the original game.įirst of all the set up is a lot easier and faster. Like I said, this was a favorite of mine and I had played it many times growing up. It was a lot of fun to see the excitement of someone who is playing the Game of Life for the very first time. And let me tell you it is a huge hit with my kids! This is the first experience my boys have had with this game. Well, finally thanks to Hasbro we now have the NEW Game of Life. What’s New with the Game of Life Game Features? I have been wanting to get this game to add to our own family collection for quite a while but for some reason, I just never got around to it. One of my favorites as a kid was The Game of Life.

Plus it is a great time to teach kids how to be good sports, be happy for those who win and be gracious losers as well. Board games are such classics that they always provide great entertainment for the entire family and offer good clean fun. I received The New Game of Life for review purposes. This post was made possible by Hasbro Games.
