Pompeii: The Board Game!

This popped up on my TweetDeck this morning:

Can you escape the inferno? In the year 79 A.D., the beautiful city of Pompeii sits at the foot of Mount Vesuvius. For years, the lovely town has attracted the best of Rome's citizens, and it is famous for both its businesses and luxuries. But a terrible secret lies deep beneath the slopes of the mighty mountain. A secret that will unleash unspeakable horrors on the fateful afternoon of August 24th. Come to beautiful Pompeii with this exciting game you will use cards to attract your Roman friends and relatives to the town. But hidden in the deck is the dreaded Vesuvius card Once this card is drawn, the volcano will erupt, raining fire onto the unsuspecting city Now you must struggle to escape the doomed city, rushing to avoid the constant streams of lava that threaten to engulf your people Will you be able to save them all? The player with the most survivors will be the winner.

How many people do you think you could save?! And would watching Dr Who 'Fires of Pompeii' help?
