Components

Money Cards – These cards will prominently feature a monetary value and nothing else. These will primarily go into your bank pile.

Property Cards – These cards resemble the property cards from the original game, though they have been edited to fit the game mechanics.

Action Cards – These cards can be added to your bank pile at the value shown or played to perform an action…either one or the other, not both. Action cards that are placed into the bank pile cannot be later used as an action card.

 

Setup & Gameplay

Shuffle the deck, making sure that you’ve removed the quick reference cards first. Deal five to each player. The deck is placed in the center of the table and players decide who goes first.

The goal of the game is to make three complete property card sets. A set is when you have all of the properties of one color, like owning both Boardwalk and Park Place.

At the beginning of your turn, draw two cards. After that, you can play up to three cards, doing any of the following:

1) Put a money card or an action card into your bank pile.

2) Put down a property card in front of you.

3) Play an action card.

 

Paying Rent – Some action cards require other players to pay rent. When this happens, players must either pay with the money in their bank pile or by giving up their own property cards using the values listed on them. Since you’re trying to complete sets, you’ll want to keep money in your bank so that you don’t have to give up property cards. There’s no giving change in this game, so if all you have is a “5″ card to pay a rent of “3″, then that’s too bad, so sad.

Players continue doing the above until one person gets three complete sets, then game over.
