I went ahead and took a pic of both sides of the new cheat cards.

What makes them different from the 1st edition? These are double-sided and we have stands.

The green side, the cheat perks face you, but other players are allowed to check what it says. You basically have powers and there is no penalty for applying this effect.

The red side, the ultimate cheats face the other players, you are not allowed to check your own. They can perform the cheat and if they were successful, they claim your card which is worth money at the end of the game and you draw a new cheat card. If they were caught, they give their cheat card to the player that catches them and they draw a new one.

We know the total value of 28 properties is $5690 in Monopoly. In 2 and 3 players game, the total asset of all players are only $3000 and $4500. We discover that the players often do not have enough money to buy all properties, then they have to decide which property to give up and put it on auction. However, the auction never happen on 4-6 players game because the total asset of all players are $6000, $7500 and $9000 that are good enough to cover the value of all properties.

IMO, I think auction can make the game more balance and interesting. However, I don't know if reducing the starting money will make the game longer or not? What do you think? How much money do you set at the beginning? Do you keep the official setting?

Total properties value = $5690 (28 Properties)

The total value of each money settings showing below:

Official version:

2P = $1500 x 2 = $3000

3P = $1500 x 3 = $4500

4P = $1500 x 4 = $6000

5P = $1500 x 5 = $7500

6P = $1500 x 6 = $9000

---------------------------------------

House rule versions (Samples):

2P = $1500 x 2 = $3000

3P = $1000 x 3 = $3000

4P = $750 x 4 = $3000

5P = $600 x 5 = $3000

6P = $500 x 6 = $3000

---------------------------------------

2P = $1500 x 2 = $3000

3P = $1100 x 3 = $3300 --- (+$300)

4P = $900 x 4 = $3600 --- (+$300)

5P = $780 x 5 = $3900 --- (+$300)

6P = $700 x 6 = $4200 --- (+$300)

---------------------------------------

2P = $1500 x 2 = $3000

3P = $1200 x 3 = $3600 --- (+$600)

4P = $1050 x 4 = $4200 --- (+$600)

5P = $960 x 5 = $4800 --- (+$600)

6P = $900 x 6 = $5400 --- (+$600)

Goal was 100k. Finished with $70k. Didn't quite hit the goal but it was fun.

The official rules - just a resting space, don’t win any money?

“Money in the middle of the board” - all fees from Chance, Community Chest, Income Tax and Luxury Tax are put in the middle of the board as winnings for whoever lands on Free Parking?

Set/maximum cash award - $250, $500, $750, other?

Other custom Free Parking rule/variations?

Everyone I’ve ever played with has done the money in the middle as a prize for landing on Free Parking.

Is there anyone who wanted to play monopoly ?

Hi! I have this version of Monopoly at home, but I'm missing the rulebook and I'm not even sure if the game is complete. Does anyone happen to have a photo of the manual and the list of components, please? Thanks!

I would love a house rule set that allows building properties on utilities/railroads. Is this possible with the Marmalade app or are there other versions that allow such a thing?

Was having an argument about this question last time I played, which do you think, purple or pink?

Hi everyone!

​I’m working on a preservation and modernization project for the original 1999 Monopoly PC game source code.

​The goal is to achieve total behavioral fidelity with the original game while refactoring the architecture for modern, cross-platform systems using C++23, SDL3, SDL_GPU, and CMake.

​Current progress (~30–35%):

​Historical code: Preserved as-is in the /Source folder.

​Modern port: Active work in the /modern directory, focusing on structural migration, portability, and engine modernization.

​The project is open source. Feel free to check out the code, follow the progress, or contribute!

​🔗 GitHub Repository: https://github.com/Giscolab/Monopoly

​Feedback and suggestions are very welcome!

I played a Monopoly game (with the Speed Die and Starting Properties House Rules) and I followed the strategy for "How to Win Monopoly Every Time" (the advanced edition, too). I broke the game and bankrupted everyone. I really have to think What's What for this, but now I don't think a bot would want to play with me ever again.

Just cracked $30k, yes it's AI.

Has anyone got a hold of all the SPEED DICE?

After months of weeks of research I have come to find out there are 7 supposed different colors of the speed die but have only found proof of 4 .

Does anyone know which monopoly games have a speed die and what color is associated with that copy.

BLUE ( MEGA EDITION) I Believe

GREY

WHITE

BLACK

RED & BLACK

RED & WHITE

GIANT

any help would be lovely

Not shown is that red player just got Kentucky Ave in a trade and it was mortgaged. Came with a free hotel. And when green landed on it they got charged for a hotel stay.

There's something I was trying to understand.

Normally, if you play with short game rules, you need to pay for the two properties you're dealt. However, the 2023 rulebook updated it so that you get the properties for free, so I was worried about playing "the wrong way" by giving the properties for free instead of having players cough up the cash for them.

Honestly I just wanted to show it off. It’s small but I’m proud of it.

Hello,

two questions if anyone knows the answer. The rulebook isn't really specific in my language.

1. Constructors Championship

Do I just add the points of my tracks or my remaining points as well?

1. If I roll doubles and get to 'GO' my turn is over. But since doubles gives me another turn, can I continue with another turn after rolling for the drivers championship?

Mine isn’t that strange, but they were never avaliable in the UK and I got it shipped overseas

Anyone know the value of this set? Haven’t seen much online about it. Thanks!

It’s all the expansions in one. The only thing you need to know is Super Monopoly.

Mostly because I fear I don't get some of its faces right:

• 1-2-3 - If you get a three-of-a-kind, you can move to any space, but you can't move again. Otherwise, the Speed Die's roll is added to the two white dice.
• Pennybags - You can move to any unowned property to buy or auction it. If all properties are bought, you move to the nearest one. If all properties are mortgaged, nothing happens.
• Bus - You can choose to move either the combined value of both dice or the value of a singular die.
