How To Play Monopoly

Submitted by Ellie L on 08/07/2009

Well, if you haven’t learnt how to play monopoly yet, then that seems impossible. By the time you’ll learn how to play it good, you will won’t want the game to end. To be able to learn to play monopoly, follow some simple steps below:

 

Step 1

Check your monopoly board. It must contain the following: monopoly game board, two dice, play money, Chance and Community Chest cards, Title Deed cards and properties like 32 houses and 12 hotels as well as 11 tokens.

 

Step 2

The game starts by simply laying out the game board with the Chance and Community Chest cards facing down in the spaces provided for them.

 

Step 3

All the chosen tokens of all players must be put on the “Go”. You may choose a token depending on what you want to choose.

 

Step 4

Everyone should agree who will be the Banker; he will take care of all the money, the building and the Title Deed cards.

 

Step 5

The money should be distributed evenly to each player. Everyone should get two $500, $200 and $50 bills, six $20 bills, five $10, $5 and $1 bills so that the total would be $1,500.

 

Step 6

Everyone should decide who will go first by rolling the dice; the one with the highest roll goes first.

 

Step 7

Everyone should alternately roll the dice.

 

Step 8

You can buy a certain property if you can land on it. If you decide not to, the Banker will put it into auction and the player with the highest bid shall buy the property. The bidding shall start with any price.

 

Step 9

In cases like you can land on the property which is owned by other players, you should have to pay a rent. It should be done before anyone throws the dice.

 

Step 10

If you can land on Chance or Community Chest, you will take a card and must follow all the instructions.

 

Step 11

You can keep the dice when you can roll on doubles; this means that you can roll again even if your turn is over.

 

Step 12

If by any chance you can roll doubles three times consecutively, you will go to Jail.

 

Step13

Every time you land on Go or make a pass, you can collect a salary of $200 from the Bank.

 

Step 14

You can win the game by simply accumulating all the properties on the board and destroying the ones which belong to other players.
