Top of &age

0elect as /anker a player who will also make a good .uctioneer. . /anker who plays in the game must keep their personal funds separate from those of the /ank. 1hen more than fi(e persons play, the /anker may elect to act only as /anker and .uctioneer.

THE BANK
/esides the /ank-s money, the /ank holds the Title #eeds, and the houses and hotels prior to purchase by the players. The /ank pays salaries and bonuses. 2t sells and auctions properties and hands out the proper Title #eed cards when purchased by a player, it also sells houses and hotels to the players and loans money when required on mortgages. The /ank collects all ta3es, fines, loans and interest, and the price of all properties which it sells and auctions. The /ank 4ne(er goes broke.4 2f the /ank runs out of money, the /anker may issue as much as needed by writing on any ordinary paper.

THE PLAY
0tarting with the /anker, each player in turn throws the dice. The player with the highest total starts the play. &lace your token on the corner marked 4GO4, then throw the dice and mo(e your token (in the direction of the arrow) the number of spaces indicated by the dice. .fter you ha(e completed your play, the turn passes to the left. The tokens remain on the spaces occupied and proceed from that point on the player-s ne3t turn. Two or more tokens may rest on the same space at the same time. #epending on the space your token reaches, you may be entitled to buy real estate or other properties, or be obliged to pay rent, pay ta3es, draw a !hance or !ommunity !hest card, 5o To 6ail, or etc... 2f you throw doubles, you mo(e your token as usual, the sum of the two dice, and are subject to any pri(ileges or penalties pertaining to the space on which you land. 7etaining the dice, throw again and mo(e your token as before. 2f you throw doubles three times in succession, mo(e your token immediately to the space marked 4In Jail4.

GO
'ach time a player-s token lands on or passes o(er GO, whether by throwing the dice or drawing a card, the /anker pays that player a )2++ salary. The $200 is paid only once each time around the board. However, if a player passing GO on the throw of the dice lands 2 spaces beyond it on ommunity hest, or ! spaces beyond it on hance, and draws the "Advance to GO" card, they collect $200 for passing #$ the first time, and another $200 for %dvancing to it the second time by the instructions on the card.

BUYING PROPERTY
1hene(er you land on an unowned property you may buy that property from the /ank at its printed price. 8ou recei(e the Title #eed card showing ownership. &lace the title deed card face up in front of you. 2f you do not wish to buy the property, the /ank sells it at through an auction to the highest bidder. The high bidder pays the /ank the amount of the bid in cash and recei(es the Title #eed card for that property.

%ny player, including the one who declined the option to buy it at the printed price, may bid. &idding may start at any price.

PAYING RENT
1hen you land on a property that is owned by another player, the owner collects rent from you in accordance with the list printed on its Title #eed card. 'f the property is mortgaged, no rent can be collected. (hen a property is mortgaged, its Title )eed card is placed face down in front of the owner. 2t is an ad(antage to hold all the Title #eed cards in a color9group $i.e., /oardwalk and &ark &lace, or !onnecticut, :ermont and ;riental .(enues% because the owner may then charge double rent for unimpro(ed properties in that colour9group. This rule applies to unmortgaged properties e(en if another property in that colour9group is mortgaged. 2t is e(en more ad(antageous to ha(e houses or hotels on properties because rents are much higher than for unimpro(ed properties. The owner may not collect the rent if they fail to ask for it before the second player following throws the dice.

CHANCE AND COMMUNITY CHEST

1hen you land on either of these spaces, take the top card from the deck indicated, follow the instructions and return the card face down to the bottom of the deck. The 4Get Out of Jail !ee4 card is held until used and then returned to the bottom of the deck. 2f the player who draws it does not wish to use it, then they may sell it, at any time, to another player at a price agreeable to both.

Houses and Hotels may be sold back to the /ank at any time for one9half the price paid for them. .ll houses on one colour9group may be sold at once, or they may be sold one house at a time $one hotel equals fi(e houses%, e(enly, in re(erse of the manner in which they were erected.

MORTGAGES
Animpro(ed properties can be mortgaged through the /ank at any time. /efore an impro(ed property can be mortgaged, all the buildings on all the properties of its colour9group must be sold back to the /ank at half price.

This cash is gi(en to the creditor. 2f you ha(e mortgaged property you also turn this property o(er to your creditor but the new owner must at once pay the /ank the amount of interest on the loan, which is 1+< of the (alue of the property. The new owner who does this may then, at their option, pay the principal or hold the property until some later turn, then lift the mortgage. 2f they hold property in this way until a later turn, they must pay the interest again upon lifting the mortgage. 0hould you owe the /ank, instead of another player, more than you can pay $because of ta3es or penalties% e(en by selling off buildings and mortgaging property, you must turn o(er all assets to the /ank. 2n this case, the /ank immediately sells by auction all property so taken, e3cept buildings. . bankrupt player must immediately retire from the game.
