The Inventors: The Parker Brothers Game of Crazy Inventions!

Description
OVERVIEW OF MOD:
Note: This game took over 4 hours to port because of the extensive problems I had with the actual board! I will be fixing it at a later date but I'm just happy it is functional!
After I recently bought 'Tabletop Simulator' I was excited for the custom games you can make, so I decided to port over one of my personal favorite underrated board games, 'The Inventors' by Parker Brothers which was released in 1974, I would say that this game is a bit of a mix of 'Monopoly' and 'The Game of Life' in many ways, so be sure to give it a chance, it looks confusing and the instructions are precise and lengthy but it is truly worth it and can make a hectic game in the end! I will be updating this mod with better screen caps of the board along with other stuff! Below is the instructions supplied in the original game! If you are confused about a part just leave a comment below and I will answer it! Have fun!

WARNING: This game is best played with 3-4 people!

LEGAL STUFF:
I did not create the board game/wrote the instructions, however, the port to TableTop Simulator and the conversion of the instructions to use mostly cards and not including the “Claim Clip/ Dice Roller Machine” were done by me! The original game/ instructions were created by Parker Brother, I do not take claim for the game, just the port to TTS. Just have fun!

@astrosoup No problem! Hopefully it still functions correctly, it's been 6 years since I uploaded this.

Wow! I played this game as a small kid, but we destroyed my dad's already old copy. Thanks so much for uploading this!

This brings me back, thank you so much! My board is missing so many pieces IRL.

Just a note I plan on adding the dice tower from the game with the new custom model features so stay tuned!

@Silent-Hunter There are quite a few custom images, ill try to look into it and see if I can find the problem!

This game seems to freeze not only Tabletop Simulator, but Steam as well, and I have to kill X11 and restart it to get rid of the issue.

I'm using Linux, by the way. I think it might be loading too many custom images.

Updated to 1.1! Read the change log to see what I changed!

My pleasure! I am pretty young to have heard of this game given its age so im surprised I got into it as much as I did!

Looks like fun. I'm old enough to have played this in the 70s, but I've never heard of it. Thanks for the upload.
