The type of gaming in this part is about the board game monopoly
This is what the board looks like
Monopoly is a board game made by the Parker Brothers. The game is named after the economic concept of monopoly, the domination of a market.The Monopoly game board consists of forty spaces containing twenty-eight properties (twenty-two colored streets, four railroads and two utilities), three Chance spaces, three Community Chest spaces, a Luxury Tax space, an Income Tax space, and the four corner squares: GO, Jail/Just Visiting, Free Parking, and the Go to Jail square.
Other items included in the standard edition are:
Ø A Title for each property. A Title Deed is given to a player to signify ownership who has bought it with their saved money, and specifies purchase price, mortgage value, the cost of building houses and hotels on that property, and the various rent prices depending on how developed the property is. Properties include:
v 22 streets, divided into 8 color groups of two or three streets. A player must own all of a color group (commonly mistaken for being called a monopoly) in order to build houses or hotels. If a player wants to mortgage one property of a color-group, not only must any houses or hotels be removed from that property, but from the others in the color-group as well.
v 4 railways. Players collect $25 rent if they own one station, $50 if they own two, $100 if they own three and $200 if they own all four. These are usually replaced by railway stations in non-U.S. editions of Monopoly.
v 2 utilities. Rent is four times dice value if player owns one utility, but 10 times dice value if player owns both. Hotels and houses cannot be built on utilities or stations.
Ø A supply of paper money. The supply of money is theoretically unlimited; if the bank runs out of money the players must make do with other markers, or calculate on paper. Each players get 2 - 500 $ bills, 2 – 100 $ bills, 2 – 50 $bills, 5 – 20 $ bills, 5 – 10 $ bills, 5 – 5 $ bills and 5 – 1 $ bills.
Ø 32 plastic houses and 12 plastic hotels.
Ø A deck of 16 Chance cards and a deck of 16 Community Chest cards. Players draw these cards when they land on the corresponding squares of the track, and follow the instructions printed on them.
History
The history of Monopoly can be traced back to 1904, when a Quaker woman named Elizabeth (Lizzie) J. Magie Phillips created a game through which she hoped to be able to explain the single tax theory of Henry George. Her game, The Landlord's Game, was commercially published in 1924. By the 1970s, the game's early history had been lost, and the idea that it had been created solely by Charles Darrow had become popular folklore. This was stated in the 1974 book The Monopoly Book: Strategy and Tactics of the World's Most Popular Game, by Maxine Brady, and in the instructions of the game itself.
The Future
I think that the future for this amazing board game is a more advance, more difficult and funner game.
