Aunt Millie's Millions
Fall 2007 GamesThe object of the game is to get as much as you can from dear old Aunt Millie's estate. Although it's a bit of a stretch to call this educational, and some might not consider this premise entirely "wholesome," testers were unanimous in calling it fun and capable of inspiring some hilarious creativity from children.
Here's the backstory: Aunt Millie left behind an estate worth millions, and players have to try to win it. Choose to be one of the colorful characters, then set out to stake your claim on the treasures at Aunt Millie's. If you claim something that someone else wants, you must come up with a story as to why your character deserves it more (decisions are made by a player serving as judge). Whoever ends up with the most treasures at the end of the game is the winner.
