Monopoly Here & Now

World

Monopoly all over the world - again players worldwide voted for this new edition of a global Monopoly. 22 cities are represented on the board with one case each, combined into the familiar color groups of a standard Monopoly. Eiffel Tower, Statue of Liberty, Easter Island Statue and Sphinx are the four exclusive playing pieces.

You travel to those 22 cities and acquire stamps or First-Class stamps for your travel passport. Regular stamps are distributed on the cases– one per city – at the start of the game. Instead of Community cards there are Here & Now cards, you are dealt two at the start and can use them at the start of your turn. You roll and move as usual; on cases with a stamp you buy the stamp or auction it. If you have the stamp of a city in your passport you cash City Tax when another player enters this case. If you have all stamps of a color group, you get a free first-class-stamp and receive double City Tax. If you roll Schlauer Tausch – Clever Exchange you can swap the top stamp in your pass for the top stamp of another player. Additional challenges come from the Here & Now cards and event cards. Whoever is first to completely fill his pass, wins the game.

Monopoly without houses and hotels; the buying and paying mechanism for cases is still around, but the exchange mechanism as a die result has quite some influence on the flow of the game – if possible I will take a stamp, if this reduces the opponent’s chances for a color set, or if the opponent’s stamp is bigger than mine and gives my a chance to finish the game faster, as the passport has no cases to fill, only overall room.
