You’re Fired!

Once The Donald has all the information he needs, he’ll make his

decision and one of the characters on the losing team will be fi red!
The player using the fi red character will have to perform some sort of

forfeit for his failure. He might have to get his teammates something to

drink, clean up all the dishes in the room, or even confess some dark

secret – like what he really hates about his real life job!
Remember, even if you have been fi red you’re not totally out of the

game. Project Managers are allowed to seek help from fi red characters

once during each episode, so you might be tapped for help often. In

addition, Donald is known to enjoy shaking things up. What better

way to do that than by returning a fi red character to the show? With a

little luck, you could still end up as The Apprentice!

The Donald Says…

At the end of each episode, there is a chance that Donald will decide to

even the playing fi eld. There are many ways he can do this. He might

move characters from one team to the other, fi re an extra player, bring

back a fi red character, or even decide to make someone become the

Project Manager on the next episode – whether they want to be or not!

The Next Episode

After the fi rst episode is fi nished, it’s time to get started on the next

one! This plays just like the fi rst one, starting with the selection of a

new project manager (or the same one, if you want!) and fi nishing

with another trip to The Boardroom. Episode by episode, the season

progresses and characters are removed from the show.

You’re Hired!

Eventually, the game is going to come down to two players – one on

each team – facing off in the fi nal episode of the season. The winner of

that challenge will emerge triumphant and become The Apprentice!

Optional Rule:

Playing With Two Players

Although The Apprentice is designed to be played by between 4 and 12

people, it makes an excellent 2 player game as well.
When playing like this, each player should select between 2 and 6

characters for his team and place their ID badges face up in front of

him, showing the side matching the color of his team. If a character

is fi red, the appropriate ID badge is set aside. If a character changes

teams, the player hands it to his opponent.

RECAUTIONS

Warning

A very small portion of the population have a condition that may cause them

to have epileptic seizures or suffer a momentary loss of consciousness when

viewing certain kinds of fl ashing lights or patterns commonly presented in

our daily environment. These people may experience seizures while watching

some television pictures or playing certain video games. People who have

not had any previous seizures may nonetheless have an undetected epileptic

condition. If you or anyone you may know has experienced symptoms linked

to an epileptic condition (e.g. seizures or loss of awareness), please consult your

physician before playing any video games. We recommend that parents observe

their children while they play video games. If you or your child experience any

of the following symptoms: dizziness, altered vision, eye or muscle twitching,

involuntary movements, loss of awareness, disorientation, or convulsions,

discontinue use of video games and consult your physician.

Image Retention Warning

Some televisions and monitors can be damaged by video game images. This

“image retention” is most commonly caused by test patterns, programming

screens, paused video games, and other unchanging images. In general,

Projection TVs are more vulnerable to this type of damage. Before using your

game system, be sure to review the documentation supplied with your television

or video monitor to determine whether or not you can safely play video games on
