Many link an increase in Monopoly World crime to the stagnant markets and the lack of incentive in passing go.

The unchanged tax rate is also a problem.
As is the literal role of luck in getting something good from the community.

I agree. What kind of safety net does that offer the residents. Then there's the lack of control over affordable rents and the desire of a lot of land lords to capitalise on the tourist boom. With so many hotels, I'd say you were taking a Chance moving there at all.

My brother used to slide one of his $500 bills under the board (for emergency cash). One game he forgot about it and conceded the game, only to discover it when we were putting it away.

In a game of greedy capitalism, that's almost appropriate.

It goes against the rules, but then they do say that rules are meant to be broken ...

I'm all for modifying the rules to have the option of theft from other players. A community chest card could give you immunity: "Congratulations: Manipulating the Futures market allows you to pilfer $1000 for each player without fear of going to jail"

We can have a Robin Hood token. Steals from the rich to give to the poor.

Ah, but Monopoly is about stealing from the poor to give to the rich. A Sheriff of Nottingham badge token!

If the Robin Hood and Sheriff tokens land on the same space, they get to duel

Arrow to the head! Monopoly is clearly lacking an effective middle ages combat system.

One of Excalibur's Crazy Gang used to say that in emulation of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.
