From the game box: "Have you got what it takes to be an American Idol? Find out in this fast paced, fun packed game that will teach you all the highs and lows of becoming an Idol." Idols is a game based on the popular TV show where unknown people can become idols by showing their singing skills. With Idols - The Game you can show others your true capacity. Each player takes a couple of his cd's with him to play this game. The board has a track with 60 spaces. Each round the players move their pawn by using a roll & die mechanic. Several spaces trigger actions. There is a space when you can choose a song from a cd and the player if choice has to guess the title of this song; if he fails his pawn goes a determined number of spaces back. There are also spaces where you have to continue the lyrics of a song or where you have the sing a couple of lines. The player who is first to reach space nr. 60 on the board wins. Each Idol game is based on the region of origin, with music reflective of the competitors on that show.
