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. If you don't play Monopoly that way you're playing it wrong. StabMasterArson posted:try this OP This is mesmerizing, I can't stop staring at it.

Pththya-lyi posted:The original board game spaces were named after streets in Atlantic City, New Jersey. you're playing a weird british version because you're weird and british You have ruined my game. I am British, and always thought Monopoly was a game originally played by women in the parlour after dinner parties as they compared cake recipes, while the gentlemen smoked cigars and drank expensive port in the lounge. The most British of games. Then it spread to be a universal game, as men were better at buying and selling houses. I can never play Monopoly again.

Either everyone but one dude winds up bakrupt or you set an arbitrary time limit and the winner is the one with the most money. It's a very lovely game because it was meant as a Georgist educational tool which was designed to show how land ownership and renting turn people into massive assholes, not an actual fun thing to play.

Is there any 3 player plus board game that is actually fun to play and not some snoozefest where you take a dive so you can do something else with the cool people who did the same thing? Maybe hungry hungry hippos, but that's all I can think of.

My family plays monopoly all the time when we have a big holiday get together, and we almost always finish the game. We also play catan and other poo poo, and part of the reason we play is to be assholes to each other in a way that won't cause permanent bad blood. Otherwise we'd just be sitting around, drinking heavily, and debating politics and religion, and at least 1 person will end up getting super pissed and stop talking to someone for a year or something. At least if it's during a game, you can blame the game.

Rutibex posted:Agricola! The best 16th century farming game you will ever play! its actually really good Excited to play this with my cousin and her husband. Its next on our list. I was looking at houses with my wife and I saw a copy of Ghettopoly in this house. Mind, this house was in the middle of a huge renovation and was from like 1910, so had all of these fancy book cases and stuff to stage the rooms that were done. Yet in this one room, on top of the book case, was a dusty copy of Ghettopoly. Like...what the hell is that doing there? Everything looked all regal and fancy and then a piece of poo poo knock off of a piece of poo poo game. Weird. So yeah, Agricola!

if you seriously enjoy settlers of catan or agricola then kill ur self and your famil for real both are like a tiny step up from monopoly but some how manage to be even dullerer. do you like being able to trade a sheep or maybe put down a poo poo little bit of wood that somehow represents a road and then repeat that for 30 minutes? congrats on having a broken brain theres so many other games out there that have depth and also manage to not have the worlds driest lovely theme so you might have a hope in hell of getting a friend to agree to play your nerdy dumb cardboard bullshit there is literally no reason to buy any of those games

Took a while for everyone to figure out the game but now we are all in the swing of it. Still haven't touched the advanced decks yet, the basic cards have more then enough variety. Unlike Monopoly a game of Agricola has a predetermined end point and it's rare if it goes over an hour an a half for 5 people. Nemesis Of Moles posted:if you seriously enjoy settlers of catan or agricola then kill ur self and your famil for real you are obviously mentally handicapped if you think that Agricola is in the same league as monopoly. what is it that you recommend?
