monopoly is only bad because people are too careful with their money. it isn't real money and you should be way more willing to go for broke. take chances.

Try playing backwards. Everyone starts with fully developed properties, and if you land on someone else's square they have to pay you.

Making the game extra fun by pointing out that the free parking thing is just a house rule and it's not a special place at all and yes I have the pages that prove this memorized.

It's very funny how it was originally a game created to illustrate the futility and awfulness of a capitalist system and it's become this game your younger brother always tried to get you to play even though you'd rather eat glass.

monopoly is fine, it's no scrabble but as long as you don't do the dumb free parking house rule it's not awful

It's actually meant to be drawn out and terrible. Quakers used it to illustrate the futility of competing with your fellow man in a capitalist system. Yet somehow people find several hours of circling a board over and over "fun".

Every time I think of monopoly I think of that one guy that powergamed it out and min/maxed a strategy that prevented anyone else from being able to actually play the game by insisting the players follow the rules as written in the rulebook and buying every house but never converting them into Hotels, so that the bank had no houses to sell and no one could improve their property.

Wait, why does the rules prevent you from buying hotels?

the rules say explicitly that there have to be houses in the stock to buy them (no replacement pieces). so if you put four houses on all of your properties, you can prevent players from buying anything other than hotels. since you have to keep properties evenly spaced on a group it means you'd have to buy three hotels immediately which is too expensive to manage
