Toys and Games Reviews of Mille Bornes Card Game
Customer Review: An old game revisited
Summary: 4 Stars
My family and I used to play this game as kids (there were 5 kids) I remember the cards being unique and funny and of course being so young didn't really understand how to play. My older brothers would tell me what to play. I remember how cool it was to have the "Right of Way" or as I remember it, the firetruck card that gave me the right to go without stopping or slowing down and the "driving ace" card that protected me from accidents. I hadn't played this game in 40 years and just remembered it one day and on a whim bought it to play with my own children. As an adult it's a completely different experience. The first game my 11 year old son and I won easily getting the "Right of way" card and "Puncture proof tires" card. Yeah! great fun. The next game my 14 year old daughter and my wife ganged up on us ruthlessly. I didn't any special cards and they got all of them. I couldn't find any Go cards and when I was hit with an out of gas card there were no remedy cards to be found... This is when I realized that this is probably the reason we stopped playing it all those years ago. Too many hurt feelings. Just as soon as I'd find a remedy card my daughter would trounce me with another accident or flat tire or out of gas card. It was more of a relief just to forfeit the game than to subject myself to more punishment.
Description of Mille Bornes Card Game
You're in a cross--country auto rally through France, and it's filled with real--life traffic hazards. You've run out of gas--do you have a Gasoline card' You've got a flat tire--have you got a spare' Use the deck's special cards to overcome hazards and put obstacles in your opponents' path. Stop them with a Red Light, impose a Speed Limit, cause a Breakdown. But watch out--they're trying to do the same to you! Contains: 106 playing cards, illustrated rules and score sheets. Play with 2, 3, 4 or 6 of your friends.You're cruising along at 100 mph, bolstered by an extra tank of gas, when suddenly your opponent cuts you off with a flat-tire card. You slam to a halt, sidelined until you draw a spare tire. It's a 1,000-mile race along an imaginary road; your goal is to arrive first, avoiding the hazards--flat tires, accidents, empty gas tanks--while inflicting them on your opponents and collecting the spares and repairs that will speed you on. The oddly absorbing Mille Bornes (French for 1,000 milestones and pronounced "meel born") has easy-to-follow rules of the road: green means go; red means stop; obey the speed limit at all times. You might even pick up a few words in French. Nostalgics beware: Anyone who owned an earlier version of the game will miss the acid-green plastic cardholder and the oversize cards. Mille Bornes is for two to six players.
