This is a roll-and-move game in the style of Monopoly. It has an "Inner Board", similar to Careers, where you roll only one die, rather than two. It has no well-defined end-game conditions: simply play for a set period of time and then total up your assets (cash, businesses and equipment), with the win going to the player with the highest total value. From the back of the box: Between the 1930's and late 80's was the heyday of the Gypo Logger. This was an era when a man, with very little or no formal education could get very rich in a short time, with a lot of backbreaking work, some good luck and with a highball crew working for him. Many more Gypo loggers also went broke in their ventures due to poor planning, unforeseen expenses, plain old 'bad luck' and a multitude of pitfalls which this game only touches the surface of. The term 'Gypo' refers to "haywire" or make do methods that are not necessarily proper--in other words lots of duct tape and haywire is holding everything together and you’re probably not using the right machine or tool anyway but somehow you're still getting the wood out.
