James Bond Secret Agent 007 Game is a board game released in 1964 for 2–4 players, 45 minutes per game, and ages 8 and up. Its main mechanics are Point to Point Movement.
Each player has three 'agents' who must "spy" at a location indicated by one of the cards in their three-card hand (cards are replaced once played). Points are scored according to a clock on the game board... one o'clock only scores 1 point, 12 o'clock scores 12 points. The hour hand advances one hour for each agent moved during a turn. If your score is between 13 and 63, agents may "rendezvous", (when more than one agent is at a location when it scores, it will double or triple the points scored). The first player to 100 points is the winner.
