Nah, you gotta check the bank price anyway to buy it and people get greedy, knowing exactly where you need to land. Honestly never crossed my mind someone could ever sneak by
No, no-- the *real* challenge is embezzling money from the bank without getting caught. 😀 NOTE: this only applies when playing the actual, physical game.
@@aturchomicz821 As a girl who has been to school social therapy and speech therapy, I can confirm Uno is a game in elementary social therapy. I'm in middle now and I somehow still remember playing Uno in third grade. Wtf...
The only thing equal to it, the game risk. Where you play with your family and start teaming up against each other. (Please note that peace treaties could go down with a simple roll of the dice and some money under the table).
The only thing that comes close is a game of sorry with the family. If you haven’t told them every problem you have with them at the start of the game then you can be damn well sure that you will have by the end.

Psychologists literally use monopoly to research the effects money has on the human psyche. What's worse is that the test results are usually relatively accurate to real life.
Monopoly was originally an activism "game" to just serve as a one time simulation about how capitalism screws people over, but then someone stole the rules, etc.
Hippity hoppity your friendship is in shambles and you no longer contact each other because of the absolute betrayal and deceit in the one game of Monopoly
@Dcard Dcardian Bonus points for the evolution coming from a company buying the rights for dirt cheap, then changing everything. Truly, Monopoly is crystalized capitalism.
Was thinking the same thing. What are the fucking odds of getting so continuously fucked for 46 minutes? Lmao. I'm pretty competitive at Monopoly and i would be intensely raging in that situation.
@@leviewings4689 i feel this when my brother doesn't land on any of my properties 3 laps at a time for every game we played in the last 5 FUCKING YEARS!!! EVEN WHEN HE WAS A CHILD!!!!
@@dancorps1388 No, not playing the auction rule is one of the big reasons games take too fucking long, it ensures that all the properties get put in play quickly and adds a strategic layer. Do I guarantee my purchase and pay the asking price, or send it to auction and risk being outbid, but potentially pay much less?
@@dancorps1388 No, it is meant to make the game last a reasonable amount of time as any player only has to step on a property once for anyone to buy it. The point of making it start cheaper is so that poor players can still try to get properties provided the rich leave them alone.
To be fair the auctions were done wrong. You don't have to start mortgaging your property until you actually win the auction. That way even if you have no money you can at least try and push the price up
From the old Monopoly PC game I had the auctions were done by the money you had on hand so you necessarily had to mortgage in order to bid a higher price. That's how it was in the board game rules too as far as I recall.
@@70astralaxe So I just checked what the official rules are. The official game rules do not say at all how an auction should be run. However at the US & World Championships (apparently that's a thing) you can bid any amount you wish, even to the point of making yourself bankrupt by winning an auction you cannot afford.
@@reddragon3132 I can actually see that being useful. Know that you dead last and if x player get this property they flat out win? Bet 2 trillion dollars.
@@reddragon3132 Apparently if you win the Monopoly World Championship, you win $20,580 in prize money, because that's how much is in a current Monopoly set. The more you know.
@@asmallphd9648 Right, it's even better: Rich parents, male, white and from the western World? You won! Poor Parents, female, black *or* from the third world? Yeah, sorry, you lost.

There's a lot to invest in RTGame Monopoly collabs. All the friendships he could bid farewell to! On an unrelated note I finally found another Hilda fan in the wild fuck yeaaa
Ive been torn in half by the love of my two favorite irish RU-vidrs and now not just one but both of them are singing country roads, oh no, god have mercy on my soul. On a serious note RT you should sing ring of fire to get even at Kevin
yes, and then the company who now owns monopoly stole the original from the owners (who hadn't trademarked it) and removed the ability to become communist
Daniel the main reason you lost is because you choose the duck, wich is a low tier character. If you picked the T-Rex, a high tier pick, then things would have gone differently.
Yeah, from what I've heard, it was made to denounce capitalism or something like that, but, quite ironically, people thought it would make a great game that could bring money so it became a classic that everyone is supposed to have played at least once.
@@ianmiller8399 It was more about economic rent and land value taxation. Basically the message was to showcase how someone who is ahead in money/property has an unfair advantage over their competitors. Monopoly showed that quite handily.
Don't feel bad, Daniel. My friend played a stock exchange game for her math class and it was basically "pay cut 50%, jury duty" and it just kept adding on to that.
You should do a Let’s Play of Minecraft 1.14 with your Twitch Subs. Edit: Or Titanfall on your own(the campaign), or just go play Pandemic Express. That one lets you make parties.
Kaden Rackley Cause when you own half the board and continue to skip over the other person’s property, you feel untouchable, and you feel like Capitalism itself is coursing through your veins. Needless to say it’s really fun :)
Why does no one understand the basics of auctioning? If your opponent has less money than the price of the property, it is always cheaper to auction and outbid them! Glad they figured it out later in the video.
It was first made by a socialist in the early 20th century but she was manipulated into selling it to them and they changed the rules to make it more capitalist. (very oversimplified)
