Depending on where you land, you pick up cards that outline, with humour and wisdom, the ingredients of emotional maturity - and ask you to share insights from your own life. As we play, we’re entertained, amusingly educated and subtly invited to continue to try to grow up - a goal that, as the game kindly implies, none of us ever quite master completely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstructions:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStart the game from the bottom left-hand square, marked number 1, and go to the top left-hand square, marked number 100.
