Review: This is the original version that you are looking for - Short review: Yes, this is the original version of Life that you are looking for. If you want the version that you had as a kid, this is it. Buy it. Long review: I had The Game of Life when I was a kid (in the '70's). I don't know what eventually happened to it, but I do not have it anymore. I bought a new edition of the game a few years ago. It was NOT the same as the old version that I had as a kid. It was a BAD new version. There was too much chance involved, little interaction between players, and the details of what happened to you during the game had little effect on the outcome because there are these dopey little tiles that are worth a huge amount of money that dwarfs any money you might have made during the game. So, although the new version of the game might reflect real life in that what you do during your life has no effect on how it ends, it wasn't very fun. This version that I'm reviewing now is the GREAT old version. You have to actually make decisions that have an effect on the outcome, although there is still quite a bit of chance involved. The box says it's for ages 10 and up, but my 7 and 9 year olds really enjoy it and they're learning a little about insurance, taxes, making money decisions, and, of course, revenge. Contrary to what another reviewer said, I don't notice any difference in the quality of this game versus what I recall of the version of my youth. The buildings look great and the printing on the board is fine. I was excited to see that the print style on the Share the Wealth cards was exactly the same as my childhood version. It is true that there are no images of Art Linkletter on this edition of the game, but if that is extremely important to you, you can probably print some from the internet and tape them to the box. The game takes us about an hour to play with 4 people, two of whom are children who are occasionally somewhat distractible. So although you may disagree with one of the ultimate lessons of this game, that the person who ends life with the most money is the winner, it's really a good game and there are actually other useful lessons about how life works that I didn't really notice as a kid. I gave it four stars for durability only because the money and cards and board will probably start to show some wear after awhile, but that can't be helped. And four stars for educational value because not all of the events that occur are entirely plausible or realistic. But five stars for fun and five stars overall because it is really a great game and because I was so excited to see that future generations will not have only that horrible new version of the game available to them.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great reproduction, great company
*by L***P on January 17, 2015*

Yes, it was worth the high cost of this reproduction(I paid 35 bucks during Xmas, it's cheaper now). Sure, it may not be the exact quality of the original, but i don't really expect that when the original was made 40 years ago in the USA and the repro is made in china. So with that in mind, this is pretty darn nice! Most importantly the game play is the same as I remember, in fact I had to read and retread as we played the instructions because of how nuanced the rules are. I purchased it as a Xmas gift for my 9 year old who was wishing for it and I'm sure he played the new dumbed down version because he seemed surprised and confused by this version. I'm glad I went with this, it has so much more interaction and opportunities to make decisions that will affect the outcome. This really maes it way more fun.The collect/pay spaces are hilariously worded, and so nostalgic! Overall, I think the critics of this version are being too picky, and in reality buying a new game versus searching out and gambling on a vintage used version is way more practical. At least you know you are getting all the pieces and there is a reputable company to contact if you have any Issue. I can vouch for this because our game came with a defective spinner, which was a total fluke as one peg was missing between numbers which was clearly a factory mis-cast. I contacted Winning Moves Games via email and they got right back to me and promptly sent out a new spinner, free of course. So, worth it to buy it new in my opinion. About the only thing I can remember being different is that the buildings and landscapes are secured and no longer fall out and need to be put back in place before each game, which is a clear improvement, unless you enjoyed sliding all of those pieces into place each time with the possibility of loosing them. Even though the weight of the board and quality of the pieces and graphics is not quite as nice, I still felt that this game is of a far superior quality to any of the new versions of classic games I have purchased in recent years, and is worth the extra cost. I am pleased that Winning Moves Games chose to make this reproduction and will certainly buy others made by them in the future. I believe they make the classic Candy Land game which is another one that has been ruined by updated graphics and poor quality.
