  1. I don’t think I have had the chance to play since I was about 10 years old. I always played it at one friend’s house. We would sit on her bed and play it as we sipped Super Big Gulp “Graveyards”… a mix of every soda at the fountain.

  7. I remember playing Life a few years ago when I was babysitting my neighbor’s daughters. We also played Clue too. I played Life whenever I had a couple of friends over after school. The game is more fun when you have more players.

  10. Also, wow, I don’t know how many years it has been since Ihave played LIFE, but loved that game as a child. Nostalgia! About time to open one up and play it again. We don’t have my childhood game anymore, so would be fun to win one. :O)

  11. Let see I’m 51 now and I think I was probably about 10 and me and my sister would play the game. It was one of our favorites.

  14. It has been awhile!! I remember me and my sister playing and we would put all those people in the little cars and just play pretend on the board instead of actually playing the game!

  19. I have many fun and special memories of playing the Game of Life with my step brothers & sisters and now I am making memories with my own children.

  20. We just played Life this week. My teenage daughter’s favorite game. I also played this as a kid. I liked driving the cars full of people up over the hills and ramps.

  21. Wow, I cannot even begin to remember the last time I played. Was ages ago. But I have very vivid memories of playing as a kid. Oh, and that my mom got mad that I chewed on the people!

  22. I haven’t played Life since my son was a child, and he is 26 now. I loved that game. I had it when I was younger and it was one of my favorite games.

  23. The last time I played Life was on the computer. I haven’t played the board game since I was a kid. I remember playing board games with my brothers and sister on Christmas Eve to help pass the time.

  24. It’s been years since I played but now it’s with the newer board game. I remember growing up playing the really old Life Board game and it was one of my favorite games growing up!

  25. We did not play many board games when I was growing up. The Game of Life is one of those games that I always wanted to try playing.

  26. The last time I played Life was when I was around 12…I’m 27 now. I miss those times sitting around the kitchen table playing board games all night with my Mom and my older sister. They were good times. Hopefully when my children get a little older I will be able to recreate that experience with them.

  27. I last played it in Elementary school. Our board tipped over at one point, sending pieces flying and my brother unable to find his pink piece declared, “Where’s my WO-MAN?”. We still laugh about it.

  28. The last time I played this game with with my son at a play date. It was a riot to see the kids deciding over working, school and the careers they picked! This would be great for our home!

  29. I think that the last time I played the Game of Life was about a year ago. I love board games and the way the family is all together when we play them.

  30. I haven’t played in ages, but I still have the Life game I had when I was little (which would make it 20+ years old!)
