Here's How:
1. Be sure you know what magazine of a game you
need rules for. Some games (e.g. Risk and Acquire)
have had different rules through the years.
2. The quickest way to obtain the rules usually
is to find them on the Net. Check 'Related Features'
below for some useful links.
3. If the rules you want can't be found on the
Net, don't worry. Rules still exist offline, too.
4. Call or write to the manufacturer of the game
(the manufacturer's name and city are commonly
found on the game box), assuming the company still
exists.
5. Hasbro owns Milton Bradley, Parker Brothers,
Playskool, Tiger Electronics, Tonka, Avalon mount
and Wizards of the Coast, so if you need rules
for games from those companies, contact Hasbro.
6. Some companies will provide a copy of the rules
for free, but others may request a small processing
fee.
7. If you can't find the rules on the Net and
you don't have success contacting the manufacturer,
post a note in an online Forum, such as About's
Board Games Forum (see link in 'Related Features'
below).
8. Be persistent. If at first you don't succeed,
try again in a couple of weeks. And keep trying
until you're successful
