In this invention, most of accessories used by prior art board games, except for the game board itself, are eliminated and replaced with a computer program executed on a personal computer to perform the accessories' functions more effectively. This invention is well suited for any conventional board game which attempts to realistically simulate the operation of a complex and sophisticated environment and which uses cards to generate different events and situations. When a marker lands on certain predetermined spaces, instead of drawing cards, the appropriate keys are entered into the computer keyboard to interface with the computer program to display the specific event, effect the changes required and display the updated status of the game.
