Board game - In pursuit of happiness

"In pursuit of happiness" – a game in which you can live a completely new life and become who you've always dreamed of. Start playing as an infant, gradually growing up, learning and getting a job, finding a soulmate and... starting a family, raising grandchildren and cultivating your garden at your dacha. Or live a life full of adventures and danger. It's time to act! Are you ready to reach unprecedented heights and success in your new life?
Before starting the game, participants randomly receive their new identities. They can be a brilliant scientist or a skilled designer, a son of wealthy parents or an ordinary office clerk. The identity cards provide different starting bonuses and one special skill.
On the game board, there are several zones. In the first zone, players lay out their cards, which come in several types: hobbies, purchases, professions, and partners. Players move their tokens around the frame of the board, which is divided into years of life, starting from infancy and ending in old age, but not everyone will be lucky enough to reach it. The board also displays the stress level and cells for various actions.
Players need to place their tokens in action cells (work, study, hobbies, and romantic relationships) that bring useful game resources. In an attempt to gain more benefits in a short time, a player can place several tokens in one cell, but in that case, it is essential to closely monitor the stress level of your character. If the stress scale fills up completely – the player will leave the game.
To win, you need to take everything from this life! Your character earns victory points by fulfilling wishes. Engage in extreme sports, buy a huge mansion by the sea, find your soulmate among the most beautiful models. Or live a calm and measured life, working at an ordinary job, reading books in the evenings, and training your dachshund, worrying about nothing.
