  • Patent number: 4921249
    Abstract: A board game is disclosed which includes an octagonal-shaped playing board having a plurality of marked spaces along the periphery of the board and a plurality of casino games disposed in the central portion of the board. The plurality of marked spaces define a path of progression during play and include written or graphic indicia corresponding to selective options and directives for the players. The marked spaces having indicia corresponding to selective options either permit a player to purchase and develop "casinos," or "parking lots,", or to purchase and sell "parking lot supplies," "casino games," or "boardwalk supplies." Marked spaces having indicia corresponding to selective directives either permit a player to collect or require a player to pay token money to another player or the "Bank." Players wager token money at the centrally-disposed casino games when that player's playing piece lands on a casino space. Movement of the playing pieces is by chance, viz. a throw of dice.
