The Game of Life, a board game whose title is exactly as it sounds, has been around since the 1960s. While it has seen various updates over the years, the 2005 edition made changes that brought the game more in line with the realities of the time. The player automatically gained a $100,000 (up from $40,000) debt upon graduating from college, and the range of values in the life tiles was reduced to $10,000 to $50,000 from the $50,000 to $250,000 of earlier versions. Still, if you were familiar with the original game, the rules are largely the same and you will have no trouble adapting to 2005 edition. Setup Mix up the 'Life' tiles prior to starting the game.
