The Game of Life, also known simply as LIFE, is a board game originally created in 1860 by Milton Bradley, as The Checkered Game of Life (and later produced by the Milton Bradley Company of Springfield, Massachusetts). The Game of Life was America's first popular parlor game. The game simulates a person's travels through his or her life, from college to retirement, with jobs, marriage, and possible children along the way. Two to six players can participate in one game. Variations of the game accommodate eight to ten players. The modern version was originally published 100 years later, in 1960. It was created by toy and game designer Reuben Klamer. It is now part of the permanent collection of the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History. The modern game consists of a track on which players travel by spinning a small wheel (in the center of the board) with spaces numbered 1 through 10. The board also contains small mountains, buildings, and other three-dimensional objects. Playing pieces are small, colored, plastic automobiles which come in red, blue, white, yellow, orange, and green; each car has six holes in the top in which blue and/or pink "people pegs" are placed throughout the game as the player "gets married" and has or adopts "children". Some "early modern" editions have eight cars. Each game also includes a setup for a bank, which includes play money (in denominations of $5, 000, $10, 000, $20, 000, $50, 000, and $100, 000. The $500 bills were dropped in the 1980s, as were the $1, 000 bills in 1992.), insurance policies (automobile, life, fire, and/or homeowners' insurance depending on the version), $20, 000 promissory notes and stock certificates. Other tangibles vary with the game version. *** Description sourced from Wikipedia.
