    Best game Ever

    Amazing game, my brother pulled a knife on me while playing, my gut is spilling out as I type also I was told that all good games should involve domestic violence, so that is great

    Nice spin on the classic!

    Always have been a lover of the original Game of Life! The fact that they (finally!) introduced pets into the game was a hit with my family! The kids loved that part of it. The ONLY downside was constantly having to pick up ‘life’ cards, instead of traditionally just grabbing a life token; It’s a cute idea to add more to the game but it gets old fast. Other than that it’s a great game and we will always play it every month!

    Great game

    My 10 year old is obsessed with this game lol. If it was up to him we would play the game all day long. I like that my 8 and 10 year can both play and both understand the game as well

    A classic that could use an update

    This game has changed from when I was a child as they’ve tried to update it. The new jobs are fun and the game itself is enjoyable but there were a lot of parts that were frustrating when I was playing with my kids. My kids that took the shortcut and skipped college in the game ended up with more money and winning the game at the end-hard to say college will help them be successful when a game says the opposite!

    My kids love it.

    I remember playing this game as a kid. Now my own children love to play it as well. Even though the version has (obviously) changed from from when I was a kid, we still enjoy playing this when we have family game nights. It is so much fun.

    Still one of my favorites

    This was a game I loved to play as a child. The fact that it has the choice to go down a career path or start your life as an adult and just go straight to having a family is something I think is a great thing to have for kids to know they can make their own decisions whenever they grow up even though they probably won't be the same as when they played the game. I like the fact that my whole family can get together and play. Our children learn that they have to choose some type of career path and that they will have to spend a lot of money for certain things like buying a home or taking vacations. I think there are a lot of lessons to be learned with this game but also a lot of fun to be had. This is one of my family's go to games. We play this often and always have a great time. I'm so glad I get to share this with my children now that I am an adult. Family game nights are always fun when we take this game out.

    Family fun!

    This game is amazing! I have been using this game to get my family together for years and it works every time. It's easy to play and it helps my daughter with math. It shows them the steps in real life and shows you how to make good choices.

    A fun fanily game!

    This game was a favorite of mine as a child and now have taught my daughter and teaching my son how to play! The different paths you can choose, the fact you have an option of career or college, the life tiles you collect along the way is so much fun as well as some friendly competition! We play it quite often at home

    Fun

    We have the pet edition. You start out with a pet. Start at college or career and go to retirement. The game didnt last as long as I thought it would but it was fun for us. I played with my 7 and 4 year old.

    One of our favs

    This was one of my all time favorite games as a child. I was so excited to see it back out, I immediately bought it for us to try as a family. It has easily become my daughter's favorite game as well. It's easy to set up, the electronic money makes it easier and faster to handle the money aspect. The only thing I do miss is how the old board game had hills and such and this one is just flat.
