from the games website: FamilyLore, a new board game that centers around the players’ family history, genealogy, ancestors and traditions, encourages families to bond and share stories together … so every player is a winner. FamilyLore Game is a unique board game for YOUR family. Unique because the game changes and grows as your family plays. FamilyLore Game is based on themes familiar to all families--and to other groups that have a shared history. Players move around the board by answering questions about the family. These questions are organized around 20 themes. Of the 600 Story Cards that are part of the game, 300 have questions to help you get underway. The remaining Story Cards provide players with a chance to write questions unique to them. Serendipity spaces are at each corner of the board. When a player lands on one, s/he takes a Serendipity Card and follows its directions. The first player to complete five trips around the board wins the game. Except, this is a game where everyone who plays wins because every player gets to tell his or her favorite family stories.
