007 James Bond: Live and Let Die

About

From the back of the box: “James Bond has been captured and left in a pond full of alligators. In an attempt to escape, 007 steals one of the villain Kananga’s boats. Can you complete the escape? Find out in this thrilling boat chase through the Louisiana bayou with Kananga’s men in hot pursuit.” This game was designed for two players aged eight and up. Extremely rare collector's item, to my knowledge only published in England due to copyright problems. This simple game (Ages 8 and up) is part of the then successful James Bond franchise of Victory Games. It was an attempt to create a simple 2-player game which would also appeal to kids (in contrast to their more complex efforts like the faulted "James Bond Assault Game"). It is basically the race from the movie "Live and let Die" - James Bond uses a motorboat to escape the evil henchmen of Kananga. Simple Action-System with small stand-up-boats and an abstract and slightly boring (small) board. Not a total waste of time - it actually works as a fast 2-player game.
