Monopoly

Be the last player remaining with money. Drive your opponents into bankruptcy by buying properties, collecting rent, and building houses and hotels.

1. Unfold the board and place it on the table.
2. Each player chooses a token and places it on GO.
3. One player is chosen as the Banker.
4. Each player receives $1,500 divided as: 2x $500, 2x $100, 2x $50, 6x $20, 5x $10, 5x $5, 5x $1.
5. Shuffle the Chance and Community Chest cards and place them on the board.

On each turn:

1. Roll both dice and move your token that many spaces clockwise.
2. Take action based on the space you land on (see below).
3. If you roll doubles, take another turn. Three doubles in a row sends you to Jail.

Landing on Properties

• Unowned property — You may buy it at the listed price. If you don't, it goes to auction.
• Owned property — Pay rent to the owner. Rent increases with houses and hotels.

Special Spaces

• GO — Collect $200 when you pass or land on it.
• Income Tax — Pay $200.
• Chance / Community Chest — Draw a card and follow its instructions.
• Jail — Just visiting (unless sent to jail).
• Go to Jail — Go directly to jail. Do not pass GO.
• Free Parking — Nothing happens (in official rules).
• Luxury Tax — Pay $100.

Once you own all properties in a color group (a monopoly), you can build houses.

• You must build evenly across the color group.
• After 4 houses on each property, you can upgrade to a hotel.
• Houses and hotels dramatically increase the rent other players must pay.

You go to jail if you:

• Land on "Go to Jail"
• Draw a "Go to Jail" card
• Roll doubles three times in a row

To get out of jail:

• Pay $50 at the start of your next turn
• Use a "Get Out of Jail Free" card
• Roll doubles on your next turn (you get 3 attempts)
• After 3 failed attempts, you must pay $50 and move

If you owe more than you can pay, you must:

1. Sell houses and hotels back to the bank at half price.
2. Mortgage properties.
3. If you still can't pay, you are bankrupt and out of the game.

The last player remaining wins!
