Monopoly City

With Hasbro's Monopoly City gameplay retains flavour from the original Monopoly but has been made significantly more complex. Traditional properties have been replaced by “districts” mapped to the real estate in the centre of the board.

Once owned by a player a Monopoly City district may be developed with up to eight blocks of buildings with possession of a complete color suite not being required to build. The number of blocks that may be built during any turn is limited to 1, 2 or 3 by the outcome of a button press to a battery powered gadget called a "Trading Unit".

A skyscraper for example may be built when a full colour suite is owned which doubles the rent payable for all districts of that specific colour. Once two stations have been built a player landing in a district with a station may choose to end their move at another station. The four traditional railroad spaces have been replaced by four planning permission spaces.

Each of the planning permission spaces offers a binary choice to build anywhere either a specified hazard that makes opponent’s residential blocks unrentable. The gadget also times auctions of unowned property initiated by landing upon an auction square. The Chance cards of the Monolopy City board game remain but community chest squares have been replaced by chance squares.
