How it plays

Spin, move that many spaces and deal with whatever life hands you. Along the way you choose a career from 31 cards, anything from ice cream flavor maker to secret agent, pick vacations such as a ski trip, a safari or snorkeling on a coral reef, and try your luck at Spin to Win. At the end everyone pays debts and counts up.

Setup is nearly instant and the rules are easy, so it suits family evenings with two to four players ages 8 and up. Pull it out when you want a game driven by choices and laughs more than deep strategy.
