I remember my mind being blown years ago when I found out the woman who created the original version did so “to demonstrate that an economy rewarding individuals is better than one where monopolies hold all the wealth.” (Quoting Wikipedia). It was called The Landlord’s Game…
in texas at least when i visit another city they’ll have localized monopoly boards with all the tiles being local landmarks and places. they probably have a board for everywhere
apparently Board Game Geeks lists 155 versions of vanilla Monopoly (reprints, localizations) and about 1000 games with "Monopoly" in the title (Betty Boop Monopoly, 65th anniversary edition Monopoly, anti-Monopoly, etc.)
