"T" triple the tile.
"T" triple the tile. When a player gets a double he draws a card<br>
which gives different kinds of priviledges. Cards can [be?] kept for<br>
future use. As soon as 1 player fills his card the game is over. Each<br>
player scores for his tiles, and those not finished lose 1 point for <br>
each unfilled space. (This was made up by 2 housewife's.)<br>
He introduced me to <u>Phil Stern</u>, 200 e 27TH (683-3562) who is the <br>
inventor of <u>MONEY CARD</u> (which I previously listed as<br>
<u>AMERICAN EXPRESS MONEY CARD GAME</u>). It was a simple race-type<br>
game with the object of visiting 8 cities. INTERPLAY is brought<br>
about by cards that tell you to visit another player or bring him<br>
to visit you. Also there is "bumping."<br>
Got a catalog, glossies, price list. Shoemack will send review copies.<br>
Back to Felicia. While waiting for <u>Dick Harris</u> I took down the<br>
