Operating Instructions (How to Play)

The objective of Monopoly is to be the last player remaining with money, by driving all other players into bankruptcy. Players move around the game board, buying and developing properties, and collecting rent from opponents who land on their properties.

Player Turn Sequence:

1. Roll the Dice: The player rolls two dice and moves their token clockwise around the board the corresponding number of spaces.

2. Action Based on Space: The action taken depends on the space landed on:

   • Ihe onwunwe nke enweghị onye nwe ya: The player may buy the property from the Bank for its printed price. If they decline, the property is auctioned off to the highest bidder.
   • Ngwongwo Nwe: The player must pay rent to the property owner.
   • Ohere ma ọ bụ Igbe Obodo: Draw the top card from the respective pile and follow its instructions.
   • Oghere ụtụ isi: Kwụọ ụtụ isi egosiri na Bank.
   • Go to Jail: Move your token directly to the "In Jail" space.
   • Ịdọba ụgbọala efu: Ọ nweghị ihe emere.
   • Go: Collect M200 from the Bank when passing or landing on "GO".

3. Ugboro abụọ: If a player rolls doubles, they take their turn as usual and then roll again. Rolling doubles three times in a row sends the player to Jail.

4. Ọgwụgwụ nke ntụgharị: Once all actions are completed, the turn passes to the next player to the left.

Game Rules (Key Mechanics)

Buying and Developing Property:

• Monopolies: To build Houses or Hotels, you must own all properties of a color group (a monopoly).

• Houses: Once you own a monopoly, you can buy Houses from the Bank and place them on your properties. You must build evenly across the color group.

• Ụlọ oriri na ọṅụṅụ: After building four Houses on each property in a color group, you can upgrade them to a Hotel.

• Rent: Rent increases significantly with Houses and Hotels.

Mortgaging Property:

• If you need money, you can mortgage properties to the Bank. You cannot collect rent on mortgaged properties.

• To unmortgage a property, you must pay the mortgage value plus 10% interest.

Bankruptcy:

• If you owe more money than you can pay, even after selling all your buildings and mortgaging all your properties, you are bankrupt and out of the game.

• All your properties are turned over to the player you owe money to, or to the Bank if you owe the Bank.
