Monopoly for Millennials Board Game

Monopoly — the Hasbro version, not the concept — is a fun board game about capitalism. You and some number of your most patient friends take turns rolling dice for the opportunity to buy and trade fictional properties, and then “develop” those properties with “houses” and “hotels,” with the ultimate goal of driving everyone else into bankruptcy. It is like being Jeff Bezos, kind of, but from the comfort of your living room.

In this version of the game, players don't buy up properties — because what IRL millennial can afford to buy houses when they're too busy spending their money on avocado toast, right? Instead the game employs tired stereotypes of younger generations, as players buy "experiences" like going to the Vegan Bistro or crashing on their Friend's Couch. Skip the Boardwalk in favor of a Week-Long Meditation Retreat!

That’s because “Monopoly for Millennials,” the 83-year-old game’s latest incarnation, is not just geared towards 20- and 30-somethings; it seems intent on trolling them. The game box comes packaged complete with a snarky tagline: “Forget real estate. You can’t afford it anyway.” Mr. Monopoly, the game’s iconic mustachioed character, sports a participation medal while holding a latte, wearing headphones, and taking—what else—a selfie. But unlike in the classic version, cash does not win the day in this game. Rather than buying Park Place, you win “Monopoly for Millennials” by collecting experiences, such as going to a meditation retreat or dining at a vegan bistro. As an added touch, the classic game avatars have been updated with generationally appropriate models—like a crying emoji and a hashtag symbol: #ByeFelicia.

Money doesn't always buy a great time, but experiences, whether they're good -- or weird -- last forever. The Monopoly for Millennials game celebrates just that. Instead of collecting as much cash as possible, players are challenged to rack up the most Experiences to win. Travel around the gameboard discovering and visiting cool places to eat, shop, and relax. Interact with other players via Chance and Community Chest cards, (which are super relatable). And players don't pay rent -- they visit one another, earning more Experience points. This board game is a great way to bring a fun and relaxed vibe to a party or casual get-together.

Monopoly is a board game currently published by Hasbro. In the game, players roll two six-sided dice to move around the game board, buying and trading properties, and developing them with houses and hotels. Players collect rent from their opponents, with the goal being to drive them into bankruptcy. Money can also be gained or lost through Chance and Community Chest cards, and tax squares; players can end up in jail, which they cannot move from until they have met one of several conditions. The game has numerous house rules, and hundreds of different editions exist, as well as many spin-offs and related media. Monopoly has become a part of international popular culture, having been licensed locally in more than 103 countries and printed in more than 37 languages.

Monopoly is derived from The Landlord's Game created by Lizzie Magie in the United States in 1903 as a way to demonstrate that an economy which rewards wealth creation is better than one where monopolists work under few constraints,[1] and to promote the economic theories of Henry George—in particular his ideas about taxation.[3] It was first published by Parker Brothers in 1935. The game is named after the economic concept of monopoly—the domination of a market by a single entity.
