Late for the Sky Houston-Opoly Board Game - City Strategy for 2-6 Players

Product Description

Product Description Enjoy this themed monopoly style game with a Houston twist. Fun and educational. Real places represented on game board. Amazon.com Because Texans like to do things in a big way--whether it's hosting the world's largest rodeo or drilling massive oil wells--this new Houston board game gives you the chance to gamble big, win big, or as the fates may have it, lose big. Like Monopoly, this game for two to six players starts with everyone receiving a stash of cash. With a roll of the dice, the players round the board, landing on various landmarks like the Astrodome, the Houston Space Center, or the Houston Zoo. When you land on a property, you can opt to purchase it, trade it, or pay rent. Two kinds of wild cards, Big Fun and Contingency, spice up the competitive action. Anyone who owns large blocks of property can build a skyline, or, when it's fully developed, trade the buildings in for the key to the city. For those poor souls who exhibit poor financial judgment, there's always the option of a mortgage--if the IRS doesn't get them first--to keep their dreams afloat. --Marianne Painter }); From the Manufacturer 3-2-1 Blast Off.
