Description

With each roll of the dice, move your piece through spaces outlining the major Jewish events in medieval Spain. Pull Explusion or Daily Life cards, as directed by the space you land on. These cards might cause you to be reincarnated (Gilgul space) as a different historical person (Nefesh/Soul cards) or put you in danger of excommunication (Herem space). Along the way, those cards might also earn you tokens for: Torah (learning), Avodah (service), Gemilut Hasadim (showing kindness), and Emunah (faithfulness). Once you have collected 18 tokens (the same number as the Hebrew word for life), go to the 7th Heaven (Aravot) and pick a judgement (Din) card. Sometimes the King of Demons has tricked you into a lower heaven. But often your deeds are judged as Holy - and you WIN!
