If you’re present-hunting for your mystically inclined friends or family, check out the Gift of Enlightenment, a cool new board game about spiritual transformation. Though that might sound as fun as Monopoly for Accountants, this colorful, whimsical set doesn’t take itself too seriously, but seriously enough. It does seem initially odd to be melding group play with inner work, the beautiful set itself wins you over pretty quickly: It includes aura cards, crystals, and an all-wood die and cards say things like: “Your possessions obsess you! Go to Missing Out” or “A dream inspires you! Move 7 spaces.” The winner is the first to traverse the path––a winding trail over a chakra-illuminated figure––to enlightenment; the prize is scoring wise advice in the included booklet. If you then find yourself jumping up and down yelling “You lose, sucka!” that might be your cue to return to the beginning of the evolving process, Do not pass Go, Do not collect $200. For two to six players, ages 14 and up. $40, giftofenlightenment.com
