Reminder: Monopoly ends when nobody except one person can afford to live on the board.
At that exact moment, property becomes worthless. Money means nothing. The jails are empty. Taxes are meaningless. The hotels all sit abandoned. Nobody passes go. Nobody earns $200. And even if they did there wouldn't be anything left to do with it.
The only thing left to do is restart the game and do it again.
It's unsustainable. It's what we're doing.
@LadyDragonfly Which was part of the point of the original Landlord's Game. Round one is Monopoly, which is terribly unfair and makes almost everyone miserable. Then you play round two, with new rules where you're rewarded for boosting the economy for everyone, and everyone is happier together. Naturally, when the game got bought out and commercialized, they cut out the second round.
@WearsHats @LadyDragonfly NPR had a really nice podcast episode about The Landlord's Game and its creator, Lizzie Magie
