PLAYED FOR YOU
Monopoly Imperium
WE buy Coca Cola and Yahoo
A new variant of Monopoly, a new version of the classic game - we no longer trade in real estate, but trade in world-famous trademarks, like Coca Cola or Intel or McDonalds.
Each player starts with a tower and two Empire cards, this is the name for the Community cards in this version. In your turn you roll - when you achieved the "Clever Swapper" you can swap the top brand sign in any tower with the top sign in any other tower, but this ends your turn. When you do not want to swap, you use the result of the other die and implement the instructions of the square you reached. On brand name squares where the brand sign is still available you buy the sign or auction it; signs that you acquire by buying or auction you place into your tower. Should the sign already be owned by another player, you pay him the currently visible value of his tower. If you own all brands of one color you get a free Office sign for your tower, but you can also buy one of those Office signs for money. For Water and electricity signs can be bought or auctioned, but earn you now rent. ON a spot "Opposition tower tax" or "Tower Tax" you or one of your opponents must give back the top sign in the tower. Cards drawn on Event and Imperium squares are implemented. You can buy yourself out of gaol and you cannot go bankrupt, but have to give away the topmost sign in your tower to the bank or another player if you cannot pay the bank or another player. If you are first to fill your tower completely, you win.
This is a very attractive variant, also as regards to components, familiar and yet different, and offering the familiar fun for the whole family!
