monopoly is a good game for teaching/learning about how horrible capitalism is... and yall have played the role of exploitative bankers/CEOs to a T here!

Apparently, Monopoly wasn't MEANT to be a good game. It was designed by someone to highlight the issues in the economic system, and they gave it a completely different name. However, some guy saw it and thought it could make some money, rebranded it and after a few years, a classic was made. It can definitely be fun with the right attitude and the right people, but it's really easily turned into the instigator it was intended to be.

Its a horrible game for several reasons, some of the main ones are. a. someone gets knocked out they are no longer part of the game (modern games avoid this). b. the end of the game drag on forever because there are no limits on turns/laps (modern games avoid this) so you can never estimate how long a game will take, this also mean everyone is just sitting around waiting for the one person in the lead to eventually win. c. its all dice and almost zero strategy (modern games avoid this), the first two-three laps will decide a lot of the game, the rest just drags out. edit: making a puzzle of it is the best way to go.

It’s a great game for teaching that even if everyone starts out equal, capitalism will always result in monopoly ownership and everyone else in poverty. Any 9 year old should fully understand the nature of capitalism after playing monopoly 4 times. Without regulation, fair turns to inequality. Everyone being ok turns to masses in ruins. It makes no sense that right wing economics exists when literally children can comprehend it

I realized watching this back that I spend a lot of time on my nitpick-y criticisms, but I really did have a lot of fun doing this puzzle. If I had had this when I was a kid, I definitely would have solved the jigsaw part of it over and over, just like I did with all of the other Puzz3Ds I had. Also, when you see the timer disappear during the assembly, that’s because I accidentally left it running while I took a break, so I lost my official time. But, I was moving the camera around so much that it wouldn’t have been accurate anyway. I estimate that it would take about an hour to assemble if you weren’t also filming.

It would make sense to know that Monopoly was originally invented to spread awareness of how awful it was to own monopolies of land, and that had its patent bought out to make a board game by Parker Brothers, and that company was bought out by Hasbro.

@@jmg999 the original game Monopoly was based off of is called The Landlord's Game and the intent of the creator was to show how harmful it was if property was controlled by monopolistic forces.

When I was about 10 my dad was transferred to Germany and my brothers and I had a game that lasted most of the two week trans-Atlantic troop transport ship voyage. Later, in college we played with the circa 1973 National Lampoon's Miracle Monopoly Cheating Kit. This was not the National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation version, it was a set of additional "house rules" and game add ons. I can remember $1000 and $5000 bills, Chance and Community Chest cards like "Railroad strike bankrupts all railroads", Title Deed cards that greatly increased the value of the cheap light blue properties, and a bridge that allowed you to go over the three green properties in a single move.

I actually have this in my closet. My parents bought a set for me and my brother. The funnest part was putting it together. Never really played it, because I would have to dismantle and put it away.

If you play Monopoly by the rules, it’s a very fun game. It’s the house rules that make it never-ending and frustrating.

It is such a joy watching you construct puzzles. I am hooked on your videos. Really great viewing.

This is sooo cool that it's an actual playable version of Monopoly! And it looks pretty deluxe too - that bank money holder and the house/hotel holders are so neat! I want more 3D puzzles that are playable board games! As for Monopoly being a good game - I think it's fine when played by the rules. I'm not super into auctions or negotiations so it's not my type of game. My husband loved playing it when he was growing up so he knows all the strats and has taught me them when we play together.

Oh wow, seeing everything in its place (especially the Community Chests and the receptacles for the houses and hotels) was really satisfying!

This was a fun video! Thanks for sharing this 3D puzzle. :) Love your new hair cut! I kind of think this was really clever. I've only done one Puzz3D, the Taj Mahal, and it had so little to help you put it together, design wise, so this puzzle would be fun to put together, I think. Monopoly is an okay game. We had our own rules for the most part though I have also heard that if you play by the real rules, it's much less frustrating.

I liked how you put the whole puzzle together like how they are made before being cut.That was cool.Puzz 3D can be very confusing but colorful.I loved the little animals on the fence type pieces.Great video and great ASMR!I like Monopoly in general but it takes a long time when others get bored.

These puzzles can be so frustrating to build (the 3D aspect at least), but also so satisfying. My biggest gripe is the pieces start to pull off and the nubs get weak when you take everything apart, even when you're being extra careful. I begged my parents for the New York puzzle when I was a kid and then never did it (because it's hard!) I have reacquired it in my adult life to finally give it a shot but....yeah all those buildings look the same. I haven't been up for it yet!

It is best played by the rules and most fair and ends quicker if the rules are closely followed. I think for people that struggle to understand the rules, a good option IMO is the video game version of the game, it enforces the rules electronically and seems like it goes by quick.

I think monopoly is a great board game if you play with house rules. I’m talking you can steal, free parking rule, you can make up your own cars so long as no one calls you out. My family has always played with these rules and we’ve had so much fun playing it. We do occasionally play the normal way too

My family love Monopoly! We gave several versions and it's tradition to play on Thanksgiving. My Dad (93) was very good and the skills he learned in the game helped him in real life. 🎉

Tbh, I love when youtubers create a smooth transition for the ad/sponsor, kinda makes me feel like watching it since I didn't see it coming; even if it is a product I'm already familiar with.

This reminds me of watching fishing videos, you wonder why it’s so interesting and you can’t stop yourself. I think it’s because it’s so relaxing.

It’s amazing to me you were able to put that together as a 2D puzzle!

Monopoly is fun when the people who are playing are into it. If one person isn't it can easily make it a miserable experience. So depends on who you are playing with.

I love Puzz-3D's but didn't do as many as I wanted to mainly because I had nothing to do with them once I did htem. The two I did that I really loved (and kept the longest) was R2D2 and New York City. R2D2 was huge, something like 2ft tall and cylindrical (duh). I think I did that one first, back in University and brought it with me across multiple moves. New York City was probably the biggest puzzle I ever did. I got it after 9/11. So the fact that it had the Twin Towers made it extra special at the time. I think it took me a few weeks to do, mainly working after work while I was in California. I kept it assembled (I think I took it in to work at the time and left it on a spare desk for a few months), then moved it with me back to Ottawa. Eventually I gave it to my parents and mom took it in to her high school classroom for a bit and it disappeared after she retired I think.

I saw a lot of Puzz3D ads on tv back in the’90s, but I never got the chance to try one. This video really gave me a sense of what it’s like to put one together and it looks like a lot of fun. I didn’t know they were still being made, but now that I do, I’m definitely going to have to pick one up. And I would absolutely like to see you solve a modern one. 3D.

I just have to say Karen that your content inspired me to purchase a 1000 piece Disney Queen of Hearts Ravensburger puzzle because my dog just had a knee surgery and it is going to be a very long recovery. The first 2 weeks she can only go outside on a leash just to potty and mill around for 5 minutes 4 or 5 times per day. I haven't worked on a puzzle for over 50 years so this is a good activity for being stuck in the house for what seems like eternity! Almost done with that one so I guess I best order another one. Probably getting 'Winged Things' next.

I'm literally currently working on a custom monopoly board themed on my dog!! Monopoly is so much fun and redesigning board games are also fun!! Such perfect timing for a monopoly themed video!!

This board is a nightmare, why did they make this?! You're a true hero for doing this assembly. The center part would have given me new levels of stress.

3D...I did the flat Monopoly puzzle and played a few games on it before putting it on the wall. I grew up alone and my parents hated games except for Bridge and I could never learn it (dyslexia). But I love board games so I have a Monopoly (and a Catopoly) game. Since I played alone, I changed some rules based on the original and it can be played by 2 people in an hour or less. I have shown people and many prefer it. Plus, in my 20s, I had a roommate and we actually played a game in 15 minutes! (Monopoly encourages people to make or change the rules to make it easier.) Thank you for the ASMR!!!

Haven't played Monopoly, 3D or otherwise in approximately 20 years - when my youngest was about 6, lol. I think I've played by the actual rules maybe twice, usually house rules. Usually a time limit. Somebody gave us an "opoly" game styled with local place names for where I live - we haven't opened it yet - I think even the draw of place names we know is not quite enough! I could see from the beginning that the jail was likely to be an issue - glad there was a door, and when you put the house/hotel boxes together they were being tricky - I'm sure that wouldn't get better with play.

So neat Karen thanks for another great video!! Love your haircut it really suits you so lovely.❤

They still do! Made in Montreal, Quebec, Canada and sold worldwide 🥰⚜

The puzzle may have been a used puzzle which is why so many pieces were connected. It is easy to shrinkwrap a box and retape a bag closed to make it look new.

Monopoly sits in the same space that old Atari games do. Where by today's standards they are extremely flawed yet set the groundwork for many games in the future.

That's a great way to look at it 👍🏻

Karen, two things: 1) You have to get the 3,000 piece NYC Puzz 3-D and build it so it’s one massive sheet 😂 2) Have you considered ASMR videos with Puzz 3-D? The parts with no music and just the sound of the foam pieces was so tingly! ❤

1) If we remember correctly, it came in two bags, so two sheets. But still, it would be an impressive feat to achieve! 2) That snapping sound is indeed addictive! Keeps you puzzling for hours 😊

36:43 its really a well thought out design

When I was around 13 yrs old, I was "inventing" board games on my own, using paper, cardboard, and other household items haha. Sadly, I was the only one interested in board games in the house. I don't have friends. So obviously, I was not able to actually enjoy playing them, as board games is supposed to be played by 2 or more people.

I had a monopoly board jigsaw puzzle, no game pieces were included, but the board was certainly playable if you already had the pieces.
