Comments from the Creator

Begin to understand the "mystique" of why family and friends are drawn together over and over to enjoy the never ending fun and challenge of searching for their personal fortune.

This board game had 3 design goals:

1. To never play the same way twice;

2. To have non stop action that keeps players interested in every move;

3. To always have a chance at winning the game.

By inter-twining investing and betting and being able to use a low, medium, or high risk strategy at any time, I was able to accomplish my 3 design goals. The Fortune Seeker player can play "blackjack" at the Casino, bet on horses at the Race Track, buy stock in the Stock Market, and buy property in Real Estate. You must accumulate a $10,000,000+ fortune to win the game. This generally takes between 1 to 3 hours.

The game was developed over a period of 8 years and published in November 1996. It was tested by age groups from 15 to 56 who had a variety of backgrounds and education. During all testing, it was exciting to see each group's enthusiasm and support for the project. All kept encouraging me to proceed because they had fun and were entertained by all the dynamics of this large 38" by 24" board. We have now sold over 800 copies and the feedback continues to be consistent from all age groups - this game is fun and entertaining!

Besides the games unpredictability, what I like most about the game is the nonstop interaction between the players. The comments that come from peoples mouths are as unique as the game itself. I am quite confident that you will enjoy this game. There were no compromises. From the game pieces to the artwork, all is the highest quality possible. Your family and friends will enjoy this game for years to come.

You are a Fortune Seeker! Fulfill your destiny!
