INSTRUCTIONS

 

 

Players: 1

Age: 0+

 

 

 

 

Objective:

Navigate through the path of life;

go anywhere that feels right.

Even if it doesn’t make sense,

keep on playing.


 

 

 

 

Pieces:

Yourself

1 Die

 

 

 

 

 

 

Gameplay:

1. Choose a path

that feels right

so you’ll never be lost,

just wandering.

2. Roll the dice.

Feel free to

scratch the coating off,

redraw your own,

and start again.

3. Collect hopes and dreams

until your mind becomes

the night sky, shimmering with

constellations of aspirations.

4. When you move three spaces

just to land on a space that says,

“Go back fifteen,”

continue forward.

5. Appreciate every move.

The journey is more important

than the end.


 

 

Warning:

There will be aches that

band aids cannot mend.
