Recession Board Game
How the Recession is time well spent for Jobless Actor
An unemployed actor has stayed busy by putting his free time to use by creating his own board game. Robert Stone wanted to capture the difficulties of the current economic climate and so called his game 'The Recession'.
He began the project in November and is now looking to manufacture and market his concept. The 47 year old said "It can be difficult for and actor at the best of times but the recession makes the old adage of being a broke actor even more real, I didn't want to be sat twiddling my thumbs, so I decided to put my skills as a sign writer to good use for the graphics for the game".

The Recession game looks at the realities of managing money and the danger of unemployment, but Mr Stone says it is accessible to all ages. Mr Stone added "The game might have negative connotations but it's a lot of fun and kids that play might prevent another recession happening in the future"
