Guide Review - 1313 Dead End Drive

Rich Aunt Agatha is dead, and 16 of her potential heirs have gathered for the reading of her will. To collect anything, they must escape from the treacherous, trap-filled mansion before the stroke of midnight. If no one gets out, the Pet Pals Retirement Home stands to win the entire fortune.

The scoring is clever; the will has a photo of each heir and they start with a pre-determined number of money bags. When an heir is eliminated by a trap, his or her money slides down to the next survivor. Only when an heir escapes do they collect any money. At the end, the player who has earned the most cash -- usually by eliminating rivals! -- wins the game.
