5. A game, comprising:
a game board having a path defined thereon;
a first structural component being coupled to the game board, the first structural component including a first actuatable mechanism and a first trigger, the first actuatable mechanism being movably coupled to the first structural component and movable between a first position and a second position, the first trigger being connected to the first actuatable mechanism, the first actuatable mechanism moving from its first position to its second position in response to actuation of the first trigger, the first structural component including a random actuation mechanism operatively coupled to the first trigger so that the actuation of the first trigger randomly results in movement of the first actuatable mechanism; and
a second structural component being coupled to the game board, the second structural component including a second actuatable mechanism and a second trigger, the second actuatable mechanism being mounted for movement between a first position and a second position, the second trigger being connected to the second actuatable mechanism, movement of the first actuatable mechanism to its second position results in the first actuatable mechanism engaging the second trigger and thereby causing movement of the second actuatable mechanism from its first position to its second position.
