Monopoly board is likely the most well-known board game of all time. Every game room has a copy, and many families will break out an old copy over the Christmas break. I mean, surely everyone already knows how to play Monopoly board?
Monopoly board has been a popular board game for many years, which has led to a lot of different versions and house rules. Players who grew up with them believe many of these to be true.
What is Monopoly?
Monopoly board is a group board game with a business theme. Two dice are used to move around the game board. Players buy and sell sites and then build homes and hotels on them. Gamers try to put their opponents out of business by charging them rent. You can also win or lose money with Tax Squares, Community Chest cards, and Chance cards. Players receive money every time they pass “Go,” but they also run the risk of getting locked up and not being able to leave until they meet one of three conditions. There are house rules, a huge number of different versions, a lot of spin-offs, and media that goes with it. Monopoly is an important part of popular culture around the world. It is licensed in more than 103 countries and published in more than 37 languages.
How to win Monopoly?
The house rules for Monopoly board make the game less fair, which is saying a lot for a game where what you roll already determines most of the outcomes. They also make the already notoriously long board game even longer, taking hours to finish and testing the patience of even the biggest fans.

How Do You Play Monopoly Board?
Let’s go over the rules for the game Monopoly now that you know how to give out money. The game is very addicting, which is partly due to the fact that the rules are very easy to understand.
Monopoly board players start with a certain amount of money and coins. They then move around the board by rolling two dice. A full, step-by-step guide is given below:
- Each person is given $1,500 by the lender, who then rolls the dice to see who goes first.
- The game starts with the man who rolls the highest, and it goes from highest to lowest.
- A person rolls two dice and moves their piece that many places when it’s their turn.
- When a person rolls a double, they roll again and move their piece twice as far.
- A player can buy a place from the bank if they land on one that isn’t theirs.
- Any player who lands on a space owned by another player has to pay the rent shown on the property card.
- Players can buy homes and hotels, put them on their own land, and charge other players rent.
The winner is the player who has the most money at the end and spends it all. That’s not all there is to the game, though. The following are also official Monopoly rules:
- Each player can only buy one home at a time.
- If a person owes rent or money to another player, they can’t move their tokens.
- People get sent to jail if they land on that spot, draw that card, or roll two pairs of dice three times in a row.
- When a player lands on a mortgaged property, they don’t have to pay rent.
- In Monopoly board, if a player lands on an income tax space, they have to pay the bank $200 or 10% of all their assets.

Pick a player to be the banker. This person is in charge of the bank’s money, property cards, hotels and homes, and property. The bank will always have money.
