As in the Original Game of Life, the goal of the game is to collect the most money by the time you retire at the end. The difference is that this new version of the Game of LIFE uses an iPad combined with a traditional gameboard. The free app brings your game to life as you move around the board. You still get to move your car from space to space and select your path to retirement, but now you spin, get paid, sue other players and make important decisions all on your iPad. While some spaces have traditional actions, if you land on app spaces, you unlock more than 100 clips from America’s Funniest Home Video. Find out if these videos bring you good fortune or bad luck. This game requires the LIFE ZappED iPad application.
