There are 4 ways to collect bananas, by landing on a space that is to either grab a bunch from the beach or steal a bunch from another player, with certain action cards, by winning spin to win, or by buying a bunch with 5 banana bucks. The reason for this is that the object of the game is collecting bananas, not completing the trek of the board. The game board is not an ending board with a start and a finish the board does have a start, but then twists and turns without and end. Now that the game is all set up, it is time to play. Not a large salary at 1 banana buck, but such a cool profession. For the record, I chose surf instructor for my career. The careers vary greatly from hula instructor to construction worker to professor, each with a varying salary (between 1 to 3 banana bucks). Next each player picks 2 career cards from the down turned deck. Each player also starts out with 3 banana bucks. The game board is placed flat and all of the spinners are placed on the board, the decks of cards are placed next to the game board and the bananas are appropriately placed on the beach.Įach player, up to 4 players for this game, chooses their minion mover and spin to win token with the corresponding colour. The game includes the game board, a main numbered spinner, mini spinners, 50 action cards, 10 career cards, 4 minion movers game pieces, 4 spin to win tokens, a stack of banana bucks (minion currency) and many bunches of bananas.

The mission of the game is to live the minion life of adventures and to be the first player to gather 5 bunches of bananas this becoming Gru’s favorite minion. This game is so much fun for the whole family. Hasbro has hit a gold mine with The Game of Life Despicable Me version.
