Description

The original hand made editions of the Monopoly game had been localized for the cities or areas in which it was played, and Parker Brothers has continued this practice. Their version of Monopoly has been produced for international markets, with the place names being localized for cities including London and Paris and for countries including the Netherlands and Germany, among others. By 1982, Parker Brothers stated that the game "has been translated into over 15 languages...". [184] In 2009, Hasbro reported that Monopoly is officially published in 27 languages, and has been licensed by them in 81 countries. [185] In 2013, Hasbro stated that the game is now available in 43 languages and 111 countries.

Hasbro announced in March 2021 that it plans to update the Community Chest cards with ones that will be more socially aware, inviting fans of the game to vote on the new versions. [33] In April 2022, Hasbro announced another poll. This vote would see the reintroduction of one previously retired token in exchange for an existing token. [34] The result of this will see the Thimble token return and the T-Rex phased out by fall 2022. [35] Board [ edit ] The original 1935 Monopoly board patent Glenn, Jim; Denton, Carey (2003).

Twenty-two streets divided into eight color groups of two or three streets; a player must own all of a color group to build houses or hotels. Once achieved, color group properties must be improved or "broken down" evenly. See the section on Rules.Play the Hasbro classic Monopoly game by yourself, with family and friends or players around the world on your mobile or tablet! A US patent was granted in 1904 but in the autumn of 1902 an article describing the game was published in The Single Tax Review. See THE LANDLORDS' GAME a b Glonnegger, Erwin (1999). Das Spiele-Buch (Erweiterte Neuauflageed.). Drei Magier Verlag. p.115. ISBN 3-9806792-0-9. After the Thuns learned the game, they began teaching its rules to their fraternity brothers at Williams College around 1926. [28] Daniel W. Layman, in turn, learned the game from the Thun brothers (who later tried to sell copies of the game commercially, but were advised by an attorney that the game could not be patented, as they were not its inventors). [28] [38] Layman later returned to his hometown of Indianapolis, Indiana, and began playing the game with friends there, ultimately producing hand-made versions of the board based on streets of that city. [30] Layman then commercially produced and sold the game, starting in 1932, with a friend in Indianapolis, who owned a company called Electronic Laboratories. [39] This game was sold under the name The Fascinating Game of Finance (later shortened to Finance). [40] Layman soon sold his rights to the game, which was then licensed, produced and marketed by Knapp Electric. [41] The published board featured four railroads (one per side), Chance and Community Chest cards and spaces, and properties grouped by symbol, rather than color. [42] [43] [44] Also in 1932, one edition of The Landlord's Game was published by the Adgame Company with a new set of rules called Prosperity, also by Magie. [45] When you land on a property that is owned by another player, the owner collects rent from you in accordance with the list printed on its Title Deed card. If the property is mortgaged, no rent can be collected. When a property is mortgaged, its Title Deed card is placed face down in front of the owner.

In 1998, Winning Moves procured the Monopoly license from Hasbro and created new UK city and regional editions [56] with sponsored squares. Initially, in December 1998, the game was sold in just a few W H Smith stores, but demand was high, with almost 50,000 games sold in the four weeks before Christmas. Winning Moves still produces new city and regional editions annually.The game has also inspired official spin-offs, such as the board game Advance to Boardwalk from 1985. There have been six card games: Water Works from 1972, Free Parking from 1988, Express Monopoly from 1993, Monopoly: The Card Game from 1999, Monopoly Deal from 2008 and Monopoly Millionaire Deal from 2012. Finally, there have been two dice games: Don't Go to Jail from 1991 and an update, Monopoly Express, (2006–2007). A second product line of games and licenses exists in Monopoly Junior, first published in 1990. In the late 1980s, official editions of Monopoly appeared for the Master System, Commodore 64, and Commodore 128. [187] A television game show, produced by King World Productions, was attempted in the summer of 1990, but lasted for only 12 episodes. In 1991–1992, official versions appeared for the Apple Macintosh and Nintendo's NES, SNES, and Game Boy. [188] In 1995, as Hasbro (which had taken over Kenner Parker Tonka in 1991) was preparing to launch Hasbro Interactive as a new brand, they chose Monopoly and Trivial Pursuit to be their first two CD-ROM games. [189] The Monopoly CD-ROM game also allowed for play over the Internet. [190] CD-ROM versions of the officially licensed Star Wars and FIFA World Cup '98 editions also were released. [191] Later CD-ROM exclusive spin-offs, Monopoly Casino and Monopoly Tycoon, were also produced under license. Any player, including the one who declined the option to buy it at the printed price, may bid. Bidding may start at any price. If you buy one house, you may put it on any one of those properties. The next house you buy must be erected on one of the unimproved properties of this or any other complete colour-group you may own. The price you must pay the Bank for each house is shown on your Title Deed card for the property on which you erect the house. The owner still collects double rent from an opponent who lands on the unimproved properties of there complete colour-group.
