New Board Game, 'Obozo's America: Why Bother Working for a Living?' Released

Contact: Bob Johnson, www.obozosamerica.com, 410-757-4630, rbowiej@comcast.net

 

ANNAPOLIS, Md., Nov. 30 /Standard Newswire/ -- ObozosAmerica.com today announced the release of its new board game, Obozo's America: Why Bother Working for a Living? According to inventor Bob Johnson, the game is a fun fantasy game based on the preposterous notion that a Marxist clown has become President of the United States.

 

Players get an initial grant of $1,000 from Obozo's government, then maneuver along Obozo's Welfare Promenade, getting cash for accumulated out-of-wedlock children, other welfare perks, and involvement in Saturday night crimes (prostitution, armed robbery, gambling, and drugs). Players can also get a job for their live-in on the Government Cakewalk, and if they are caught in crime, experience the Jail Jaunt.

 

Players try to avoid landing on one of the dreaded 'Get a Job' blocks forcing them from Obozo's Welfare Promenade onto the Working Person's Rut.

 

The game includes 50 Welfare Benefit cards, 50 Working Person's Burden cards, and lots of funny money. Sample cards, money, and a PDF of the full board can be seen at www.obozosamerica.com.
