The Game of Real Life

The Game of Real Life is a parody of Milton Bradley's The Game of Life. Instead of trying to get the most money, in The Game of Real Life your character is trying to get the most Happiness. Happiness wins the game!
There are different ways to get Happiness: Playing with a puppy, falling in love, catching autumn leaves as they fall and SEX and DRUGS. Sex and Drugs are a choice. So you might get Happiness or you might lose Health. It is a roll of the die.
The Game of Real Life is a role-playing game. So, before you start down the path of Real Life each player flips a coin to see if they are playing a male or female character. Then each player rolls a die to determine how healthy that character is. HP are Health Points. Run out of HP and you are out of the game!
