The gently caress are these places names?! Oranges are the best yes only they are called Vine Street, Marlborough Street and Bow Street. You can also kick some arse by trading for the low value properties early i.e. Old Kent Road and Whitechapel Road whilst everyone else is fighting for the rest its an underrated tactic, hotel that poo poo up and slowly slowly catchy monkey. Lol if you do not choose either race car or top hat.

London monopoly is correct monopoly I can't even begin to describe how wrong the OPs board is e.g. the stations should be King's Cross, Marylebone, Fenchurch St. and Liverpool Street and the top value property on the board is clearly Mayfair.

I love how they made a new version of Monopoly that's about buying and selling corporations instead of real estate, it's the most accurate reflection of what modern monopolies really are

Only shows you how lovely Capitalism is if you're landing on a hotel in Mayfair. If you own that hotel, you probably think Capitalism is pretty rad. Just like real life.

The best way to play Monopoly is too wait until whoever is in the lead has almost won and then flip the board

One tip for free is don't play my mum at monopoly. She grew up in the east end of London and i think at the time that's all they had for entertainment and also she comes from a long line of wheeler dealers so its in her blood. Some tricks she employs include bailing out people with loans under the condition that all visits to their property are subsequently rent free. This is devastatingly useful later in the game.
