Monopoly is a board game currently published by Hasbro. In the game, players roll two six-sided dice to move around the game board, buying and trading properties, and developing them with houses and hotels. Players collect rent from their opponents, with the goal being to drive them into bankruptcy. Money can also be gained or lost through Chance and Community Chest cards, and tax squares; players can end up in jail, which they cannot move from until they have met one of several conditions. The game has numerous house rules, and hundreds of different editions exist, as well as many spin-offs and related media. Monopoly has become a part of international popular culture, having been licensed locally in more than 103 countries and printed in more than 37 languages.
There are many versions of Monopoly including some weird versions and variations of the game, including Star wars, Lord of the rings, Pokemon, Monopoly Plus, Cheaters edition, Marvel, monopoly empire, super mario, target edition, ms. monopoly, national parks, christmas, spiderman, stranger things, electronic banking and more.
Monopoly is derived from The Landlord's Game created by Lizzie Magie in the United States in 1903 as a way to demonstrate that an economy which rewards wealth creation is better than one where monopolists work under few constraints, and to promote the economic theories of Henry George-in particular his ideas about taxation. It was first published by Parker Brothers in 1935 until that firm was eventually absorbed into Hasbro in 1991. The game is named after the economic concept of monopoly-the domination of a market by a single entity.

    @@paulcooverjr.6947 Mortgaging a property has its own rule set. 1. You can't mortgage a property if any of the properties in that group have houses or hotels. This is the way I've always seen it played but the official rules indicate you can still mortgage a property if the other properties still have ONE house. Since there can only be a one house variance between the least and most improved properties in the set, you couldn't have a hotel on Park Place while Boardwalk is mortgaged. The most you could have is one house on Park Place. 2. If you have more than one house on the properties you must sell all the hotels and houses (at half price) back to the bank until you reach the one house variance or get rid of them all (depending on how you interpret the rules). 3. When you mortgage a property the Bank gives you half the face value. Boardwalk is worth $400 so the Bank gives you $200. This is considered a loan. 4. You must turn your card upside-down for each mortgaged property, to prove to everyone it is mortgaged. 5. You still own the property but it is mortgaged. 6. If someone lands on the mortgaged property, they don't pay you rent. In the real world mortgages don't work this way but in the game they do. Eventually you may want to un-mortgage the properties. 1. You pay half the value + 10% interest to the Bank. Basically 60% of the value of the property to cover the loan and the interest. 2. You flip that card right-side up. It's a real boy again. 3. If you cause someone to go bankrupt and take all their properties, you will pay an immediate 10% on each mortgaged property you collect from them. It will cost you another 10% (interest) when you decide to un-mortgage the property. 4. If you own all properties in that color set you can start building houses/hotels normally.

    Something I've learned is to try and monopolize the railroads. Hitting the middle isn't common, but having your opponents be at risk every roll leaves you having a bunch of cash on hand. Also having someone draw the chance card that states a player has to advance to a railroad but had to pay twice the rent if it's already owned also gives you a lot of support, leaving you 400 bucks richer

    I love to get the railroads if possible. You will sometimes see players roll doubles and keep landing on railroads along the way. Even at 200 bucks, this will chip away at their funds nicely. My favorite groups to score will still be the orange and light blues since they are extremely probably places for people land, but the railroads mixed in with some sold coverage of the board just doom for your opponents. Especially when they get an ill timed card forcing them to them.

    The railroads are good late game as well because of their value as mortgageable properties which retain their full rent price on every unmortgaged property. In a 1v1 unmortgaging the railroads is a really safe way to put property back on the board which can be liquidated at little cost again

    And always remember: if the game box runs out of houses that is supposed to happen, do not use random junk to represent more. The game is finely balanced and buying out all the houses is a strategy for preventing other people from buying them. (Which also means typically you shouldn't buy hotels)

    One other gotcha related to houses: keep a close eye on the available supply. There often aren't enough to go around, leaving some people unable to build. It may be wise to build houses on a poor color just to prevent opponents from building on theirs. Also sometimes you may not want to upgrade to hotels because those houses will go back into the supply pool.

    A good thing to add, in the original version of monopoly (table top/board) there is a limited number of hotells and houses that you can own. Making it a good strategy to never convert houses to hotells because after a while you might take away the option entirely to buy houses or hotells from other players.

The only other thing I owned was the railroad next to it. I made them into hotels. Since everyone else was buying a lot of things they were broke so they mortages a lotta the lots. Those who built houses did it on the yellow and brown ones which weren’t as common to land on. When it was the finale two 90% of the map was mortaged so it was hard for my oppanang to make money so eventually they became bankrupt! Tysm!

    Also, never forget that you can "make no mistakes and still lose". Monopoly is a probabilistic game. You can own the orange properties and build up your houses and it's possible no one ever lands on them, while you always land on your opponent's undeveloped properties slowly giving them the resources to win. These strategies do not guarantee you a win every game. They will just massively increase your win rate over a large amount of games.

    Yes, unluckiness can be the deciding factor... Another important strategy not covered here is that in the end, winning Monopoly is not about enriching yourself; It is really about bankrupting you opponents. This is also how many people similarly do everything right and still lose. Put simply: In Monopoly, all of your amassed riches can be taken away in a couple of moves, but bankrupt one of your opponents, and that bankruptcy puts them out of the game for good. 👍

    You might be able to simplify the first two tips together - take your jail/go sides, rotate them ccw 90°, call that your attack and defence halves. If you're starting on an attack edge, be aggressive wherever you might land. The sides might be a bit far back considering the average 7 roll not being enough to clear one edge, but consider that doubles grant extra rolls, and therefore greater travel, and you'll probably even out. Also, general monopoly tip, not necessarily for winning: set a lap limit. Most value at the end wins. Don't play to domination, that's how games drag on.

    Properties from Go and Jail are the most probable locations to land on. There's plenty of game functions that drag players to both Go and Jail, so when they roll from either of those places, 6 and 8 are second most common numbers to come up. (7 is the most likely with two dice, but Community Chest and Chance are always the 7th space.) Why the light blues and oranges are two on the highest interaction locations to own.

    It's true that 3 houses is usually the sweet spot. But even 2 houses can be painful to hit from the reds on. Also, i'd personally be inclined to split the board more up and down, instead of diagonally from jail. That is, i would include the light blues and exclude the yellows from the frequently hit properties. People often hit the light blues coming around go. Also, virginia, st james, and tennesse are good for extra houses for people rolling doubles coming out of jail. On the other hand, st charles, illinois, and boardwalk are card targets. Of course, the railroads are awesome to own, though houses cannot be built on them.

    Try my new rule. TAKEOVER. Land on an opponent's property, then when the opponent asks you to pay rent, Pay the Listed price of that Property PLUS Double Rent TO THE BANK instead to the owner. You can snatch their property ALONG WITH THEIR HOUSES/HOTELS. This not only takes down stubborn traders(by potentially destroying their set and their chances of building houses), but also players who move later can gain properties, gaining them a better start instead of starting their game in a disadvantage. The downside of this is this is very likely to be more expensive than Auctions, so players will have to think twice before attempting it.

    One thing I don't like with the official rules is that you can buy houses anytime. I think it's ridiculous that when someone rolls doubles and gets closer to your property than you'd otherwise expect, that all of a sudden you can interrupt their turn and buy houses. So, I came up with the reasonable house rule that you can ONLY buy houses on your turn and then ONLY before you roll the dice.

    Very informative for new players, me and my friends have been going back and forth in monopoly for years every week so it's nothing new to us and we're all aware of everything covered but the basics are very important to understand nonetheless. Our biggest problem is trades, because we know all the best and worst to own we rarely ever make a deal to start with and it gets very complex trying to figure out who is coming out on top. One very important thing I think was missed is the limit on houses in a game, buying them without going to hotels drastically handicaps your opponents so if they try and make a deal with you and there's only 9 houses left make sure the deal is on your turn or you'll be stuck with a worthless set while they're rolling out construction. Going to hotels has proven to be me more harmful then good in 90% of scenarios especially if there's not enough houses to remove the hotels if you're in a tight spot.

    I feel that one of the most important things is mastering negotiation. For example, If I was trying to trade Boardwalk to get the Orange monopoly, I would mention how much I paid for Boardwalk in comparison to the orange which I'm receiving. But even if I was on the opposite side, I would mention that my houses cost much more than the orange property, hence why I will not accept the deal without gaining money or extra property that I would then mortgage. Also, I like to buy random properties early in the game that I know could become very valuable later on. For example, I would offer $500 for st. James knowing that if I wait, the price will go way up. So I kind of treat it like the stock market, Buy Low Sell high. I've been almost undefeated recently in my very competitive family monopoly game as of late, so I hope some of these strategies help you guys out

    I played this game like 80 times, and only like the last 4 times did I read the directions myself and learn how it is ACTUALLY meant to be played , which made all the difference to make this turn from a luck-dominant game to a strategy-dominant game. Instantly I became super interested and watched videos like this. However, none of them even talk about the most fundamental part which basically makes or ruins the game, which is the original part of auctioning properties. IMO auctioning properties to make your enemies broke is even more important than focusing on which ones you get overall to begin with. Since you can easily trade the 'bad' properties after for the good ones if you got a lot more because you played them auction-wise... I always auction stuff not based on how much I think something is worth, but based on how much I think my opponent will pay for it, then once they... pay for it. I clean house by buying everything else on the cheap... I watched this video because I was hoping for tips on how your average human values stuff, and how to maximize how much they pay for something, so I can take advantage of this point. But like I said, I've only played like 4 games since learning the REAL rules, and am eager to murder my opponents even more =).

    True. Strategy can be separated into static and dynamic. Knowing "which squares to own" is static and doesn't change from one game to the next, and it will basically come down to luck if you're playing other players that did their research. Auctions and deals are dynamic and hence far more interesting.

    Sometimes, when I’m bored, I go in my backyard and pretend I am a rock. That was until last week when I decided to go be a rock on a particularly nice day. Because it was so nice my brother also came outside,looking a little angry, he was pacing around and picked up a rock, throwing it at a tree. It made a satisfying hollow thunk and bounced off into the crunchy leaves. I shifted my eyes toward him, remaining still, and watched him repeat this process several times. He ran out of rocks to throw and began walking back to the house but on his way, he finally noticed me. “Fkn rock”, he said and attempted to kick me. I am much heavier than the average rock however so I didn’t move at all. Now he was determined to move me so he crouched down and picked me up with both hands before spinning around several times and launching me towards the tree. I only had time to exclaim “WTF” before hitting the tree at 273 m/s. sadly I died on impact, but at least the weather was nice

    I agree with the math and the base strategy in this video, however I do feel like there is somethings you are not considering. There is a limit of 32 houses. Therefore the browns are cheap to build on, can drain up to 8 houses out of the total thus in my opinion making them pretty desirable. Monopoly yes, is about beating your opponents but also out surviving them, which I think this video doesn’t consider enough :)

I do like the idea of odds on dice and prioritizing property Jail side. I'll use that in concert with causing a No hotels housing shortage game.

    Monopoly is a fun game, but the major problem with it is you pretty much know who will win the game after you go around 2-3 times. After that, you just spend 2-3 hours making it official. Less than 50% of the time, ime, is the ultimate winner not obvious early on. I guess my ultimate point is strategy really only comes into play if you and another player are even after the first 2-3 times around the board. Therefore, there is nothing you can do to win monopoly "every time". Luck is the deciding factor in 50% or more of games.

    I will point out that if you get the Brown you can easily drain your opponents cash. They may not hit often but they are cheap to build, are right after Go, and get unexpectedly expensive with a couple Hotels. Every time I win (which is most games I play) I have these two. EDIT: 9:15 - This also gives you a safe haven between two Monopolies and safe landings are SO valuable.

They often can be something that opponents undervalue in trades (sometimes one of the few developable monopolies I can get opponents to trade) Additionally, I’ve found that a rainbow of properties in my hand allows me to help control the tempo and decide when I want to offer a trade (eg when I’ve got the cash (or ability to get cash via mtg)) that works out in my favor.

    I made trades that wound up with me buying the whole ghetto (the first side past Go.) I had plenty of cash, so I immediately erected a hotel on both monopolies, plus I owned all four railroads. That move right there beat my opponents into submission. They were trying to save their cash to develop on the blue, green, and yellow properties but knew they couldn't get past me. They all conceded. Wimps.

    The railroads are the most underrated properties in my opinion. Firstly, they’re easier to trade for because most people undervalue them. I’ll tell someone that i’ll only do a certain trade if they throw in their railroad, making it seem like it’s just a throwaway property. Secondly, they’re landed on very often. It’s the only monopoly with 4 spaces on the board(2 of which are on the “jail side”, and one of them being in that 5-9 range right out of jail). There’s also 3 chance cards that send you to a railroad(2 of which make you pay double what’s owed). The next highest is just 1 chance card. One time i had a single person land on 3 in a row! Thirdly, it gives you a safe space to land on on every side of the board. And Fourth, they require very little setup. They don’t require you to buy houses but they still pay a lot of money for how often they’re landed on. They’re the best way to make money early because of this, making it easier to buy houses later, and making it harder for your opponents to buy them later too. A lot of games, getting the railroads early can make the other monopolies not even matter. I can build houses on my bad properties and my opponents can’t build houses on their good properties.

    I think railroads are the strongest. No setup makes them so strong post trades, and makes you get money really fast to setum houses on other places. They are not a winning condition by themselves, but make the game 100% times easier

    A cool spin to the game would be a natural disaster event for any time someone lands on a railway. Use a random number generator and that spot gets hit. The property(house and card) is forced to be disowned by that person, but they get fully reimbursed for original value. The next person who lands on that property can buy it.

    I go for st charles because it has a landing card and is also the most landed on properties (atleast on the monopoly mobile app, idk if it is truly random), I get the light blues because they are cheap houses and a single person landing on them when they are built allows you to get your maroons to 3 if not 4 houses which can start ruining peoples games. I also always get the two browns. 4-500 for hotels and they are landed on 4-5 times per game. Also yes, they do bankrupt people, although only once they are already doomed to lose.

    Interesting overview of the strategy...in my experiences playing this game: owning the Orange, Red and Green properties were how I won most of the time. If I didn't get at least 2 of those 3 sets, I never won, so I find it interesting that you say to never buy the green properties, but it's all probability and how you broke down the game board makes a lot of sense from strictly a mathematics point of view. There's always going to be variables though and I should mention that I've never played a game of Monopoly where people actually auctioned off properties...it was either buy the property or it went back to the bank until someone else landed on it lol

    Most home games are like that. (And don't get me started about piles of money in the middle of the board waiting for someone to land on "Free Parking" like it's winning the lottery.) But play in a tournament run by a game store or the like and you will find that people are fanatical about strictly following the rules, including auctions. Usually, the only house rules in those tournaments are things which don't affect the game (such as food/drink rules), cost to play (if any), etc.

    The Greens are very poor (the worst?). They are not landed upon often. People often skip them completely when landing on go to jail. They are also very expensive to build on. There are no cards that send people to them (or send them to a spot that sets them up to land on the greens). The "Go back three spaces" chance card doesn't help the greens either. The Blues get a pass because they pay out at an inflated rate and there is "advance to Boardwalk" that boosts them. Orange and reds are pure money though!

  • @DreamDragonStar

    A good strategy to use when playing monopoly is to get monopolies on the oranges and reds, then build a couple of houses on each of these properties. You have now created what I like to call 'death corner' which your opponents will struggle to get through without landing on one of your properties, allowing you to quickly build up cash to upgrade your properties. This results in a vicious cycle where every time somebody lands on one of your properties you can use the rent money to build more houses and maybe even hotels meaning they have to pay even more money next time they land there. Speaking of which, don't build hotels. Use houses instead. If you put 3 or 4 houses on each of your properties, you can easily cause a housing shortage, forcing other players to go straight to building hotels if they want a good amount of rent, which can be tough if they don't have loads of money. By doing this, you can collect tons of money while losing very little since the other players most likely won't have enough money to build masses of hotels to collect cash effectively. Just don't go too crazy with these strategies though, because if you do your friends might just get mad and quit the game before it's even over.

    I found splitting the board and playing to 7 helpful tips I had not thought of before. I sort of always played to the second row, but that was more because the properties have a good cost to payback ratio. The 3rd row gets expensive and the 4th row is impossible. Nobody ever wins with Park Place.

    My personal strat is to get 4 stations asap. They pay 200 and you ALWAYS have a chance of landing on them (except in jail if you play by the use the double you roll rule. But I suppose on your same turn from that double if you allow to roll again there still is a chance of landing on a station). Not only that but A total of 800 dollars for the equivalent value of 1 maybe 2 houses on a property is pretty good
