![]() ![]() Monopoly is a board game where players compete to become the wealthiest by purchasing, developing, and trading property. How to win a Monopoly when you are losing? (Tips and Tricks) Focus on Buying all Orange and Red Properties Getting into Jail is great later in the Game Focus on Chance Cards and Community Chest Cards Try to get hold of the Utilities like Water and Electric Develop Properties(Hotels and Houses) Aggressively Buy Every Single property in a Color Group as Quickly as Possible This can be a killer when you own 20+ houses. Your biggest risk is the “assessed repairs” chance card. This is usually late in the game after one or two players have already gone bankrupt. Only build hotels if you’re doing it to free up houses for yourself to use immediately. This catches people rolling double 3s and 4s while trying to stay in jail.Īlso, learn the housing shortage strategy. I’ll prioritize houses on St James and New York. The likelihood of opponents landing here is huge. Literally only owning these three orange properties. I’ve had games where it seemed I was hanging by a thread but held on to this monopoly with nothing else. The reason is the probability of landing in these properties is very high. I’ll sacrifice a lot in trades to secure orange. But I think you should consider orange as a priority. That's basically all the basic advice I can give you without going into in-depth or advanced strategy. The cost of houses is also very important, with cheaper houses always being better. Generally, the more landed on ones are better, and the less landed on ones are worse. Look up the probabilities properties are landed on. Late game, when major rents are possible to pay for, don't pay, and stay in jail as long as possible. Obviously, the better a monopoly you have (oranges, red, yellow are top tier, greens and dark blues are quite bad, purples aren't really game-winners, and pink/light blue are mediocre), the more money you have to build houses with (and thus the higher your rents are and the more damage you yourself can sustain), the earlier you are landed on (relative board position of all players' pieces at the time of a trade execution), and the more properties you get as leverage, the better.Įarly game, pay to get out of jail immediately. That's quite literally your basic game plan. Use your further acquired properties to collect more monopolies and continue the process. Use those houses to bankrupt your opponents. If you want "fundamental basic pointers", that's the best anyone can give you.īuy everything you land on early in the game.Īttempt to acquire a monopoly through trading or by luck of the dice.īuild as many houses as you can on your acquired monopoly. Getting good at Monopoly takes dozens of hours of work in studying and practice. Sorry this was so long, it’d help out a lot if you guys could leave your thoughts and opinions. And I try and trade away purple, light, and dark blue properties away because they don’t really fit my game plan. If I can get orange that would be nice, but I’d need one of the other three colours I’ve listen to help me get more money, and usually the 4 railroads are underrated (when I play) so getting my hands on all of those are very close to a priority to me. So to summarize my strategy, I like to get my hands on red, yellow, and/or green. Light blue is also low paying but I’ve found sometimes can be rewarding. Purple is I think the worst because they’re the lowest paying properties and there’s only two on the board. I feel like dark blue is a high risk high reward type move, and I’m not usually one for gambling so I try and trade away dark blues to help benefit my strategy. Lastly, I almost always avoid buying the two blues, and purple. I also like to hardball when it comes to trading because I find my opponents are usually always desperate for getting a monopoly, which I can use to my advantage. Usually orange is another great monopoly to attain because if you’re coming out of jail there’s a high chance that your opponent can land there. ![]() I also find that railroads can be very useful only if you can get all 4 of them in your possession. But I personally like to target getting red, yellow, and/or green properties because they have 3 landing spots and I think they offer a fair amount of money if you can get houses up. I’m a pretty competitive person and I was wondering what is the best strategy to win Monopoly? Obviously it requires a bit of luck landing on certain spots on the board and hoping your opponent doesn’t land there first. I just started playing Monopoly not too long ago with my family and friends. Hi guys, I just found this subreddit and I figured it’d be a good place to ask. ![]()
