Bandu


Bandu is a game where you start with a little rectangular piece and you have to build upon this little piece with various good and bad pieces from a pile in the middle. The person sitting next to you either takes a piece that will benefit them or passes on a piece that will hurt you. You have five beans... you either pay a bean to pass on the piece or accept the piece to add it to your structure. This game is a lot like life where you can pay to get out of rough situations or take what is handed to you and make the most of it.
In the end the person that plans and knows when it is important to pay or to accept the bad piece wins. Its all about the way you structure your life: you could take the bad situations and make the most of it or you can just try to ignore the bad stuff and let it pass by. You may start off with a bad structure but if you plan and build that structure to be solid you may just end up winning.
