Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to a board game and more particularly to an educational board game designed to educate players about religious subject matter based upon real life situations.

Such board games are known to be either recreational or educational. For example, the Monopoly® game is a well-known recreational board game. Educational board games are also known. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 6,454,263 discloses a board game which educates players on nutrition. Still other educational board games are known for educating players on religious subject matter. Examples of educational religious board games are disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,295,834 and 5,224,862. These games educate players with respect to the Bible. However, none of these games are based upon real life situations. Thus, there is a need for a board game which educates players from a religious standpoint based on real life situations.
- The present invention relates to an educational board game and in particular to an educational board game which teaches religious subject matter based upon real life situations. The board game includes a game board, a plurality of games pieces, game money, a deck of prayer cards, a deck of evangelism cards, a Bible, a timer and a spindle or dice. The game board is divided into a number of game spaces. The game spaces include three categories of real life situations.
Category 1 situations require players landing on those game spaces to draw a prayer card. The prayer cards require one of the other players to pray for the current player. Category 2 game spaces require the player to draw an evangelism card. The evangelism card requires another player to encourage the current player.Category 3 game spaces allow the player to draw either a prayer or an evangelism card. The first player to reach salvation, the end game space, wins. Since all of the games spaces are based on real life situations, players are educated to seek assistance and prayer from other players for different real life situations. - These and other advantages of the present invention will be readily understood with reference to the following specification and attached drawing wherein:
- FIG. 1 is a diagram of a game board for use with the present invention.

The game also includes a timer, game pieces, for example, angel wing tokens, game money and Bible (not shown).
- Referring to FIG. 1, the game board, generally identified with the reference20, is a generally rectangular game board having a number of game spaces, generally identified with the reference number 22. As shown, the game spaces 22 are provided along all four sides of the game board 20. In addition, a row of game of game spaces, generally identified with the
reference number 24, may be provided toward the center of the game board 20. - The organization and juxtaposition of the game spaces illustrated in FIG. 1 is exemplary. Other configurations are considered to be within the broad scope of the present invention.
- In addition to the game spaces22, a first
rectangular area 26 is designated on the game board 20 forprayer cards 27 and a secondrectangular area 28 is designated forevangelism cards 29. Theprayer cards 27 are illustrated in FIGS. 2A and 2B.

reference number 100, and a finish game space, identified with thereference number 140. The game can be played by two (2) to seven (7) players. Most of the game spaces 22 around the game board 20 represent real life situations. An object of the game is to present players with real life situations and educate the player from a religious standpoint to seek encouragement or prayer from other players. - The real life situations are divided into 3 categories. Category 1 situations require a player to draw a
prayer card 27 from the prayer card deck. Category 2 situations require a player to draw anevangelism card 29 from the evangelism card deck. Category 3 situations require a player to draw either aprayer 27 orevangelism card 29. - The
