Monopoly

Though initially rejected by the toy firm Parker Brothers, Monopoly has become one of the world’s most popular board games. Players move around the game board buying properties and developing them with houses and hotels. Their opponents then pay rent when they land on these spaces. Players can also pick up “Chance” and “Community Chest” cards, with outcomes ranging from being sent to jail to winning second prize in a beauty contest.
