The object of the game is to lose the lard! Each player starts with 20 unwanted pounds of lard and the goal is to lose them. To play the game, pick a strategy -- Healthy Lifestyle or Crash Diet -- and move around the board experiencing all of the ups and downs of the real weight loss journey. The main way you';ll lose weight is by answering fun and challenging questions about calories, nutrition, excercise and trivia. You'll be amazed at how much you know -- and how much you don't know! With 2,000 questions, you'll find your favorite foods, diets and people in The FAT CHANCE Game -- from french fries to fresh fruit, Atkins to Weight Watchers, Oprah to Olive Oyl. Answering questions, however, isn't the only way to budge that scale. You can lose extra pounds on Sweat Stop and Psychic Bonbon spaces ... or you can pack on the pounds if you land on Chow Down or slip into one of the dreaded Oops! Loops -- the vicious cycles of procrastination and justification which lure us all. And, don't forget to steer clear of Heartbreak Plateau -- you'll be stuck in one place for a while, and we all know how frustrating that can be!

Very entertaining and pretty educational
This is a great game. I ordered it for a party but never got around to playing it with my friends. However, I have played it many, many times with my boyfriend (beating him each and every time - hah!), and had lots of fun! The questions (and answers) are very diverse, fun and educational. We have learned a lot from playing the game. The only thing I would add is that some of the questions are very hard to answer if you are younger (say under 30). The game mentions lots of candy, chocolate and other foods that have been discontinued in the late 70s,before our time, so it makes it hard to answer those questions. Nonetheless, I am giving it 5 stars, because it is a very entertaining game and it will keep you playing for hours. Definitely worth it.
