JAIL! Nothing beats sitting in jail for 3 turns and making money off your own hotels when you have a corner of opposition hotels waiting to drain you

Free Parking. You don’t find that anywhere in Sydney within a few streets of some train stations and hotels. It’s a rarity.

I love GO because I get more money to buy the places I like! No doubt about it!

My favourite place in the world of Monopoly is the historical King’s Cross Station in the original (and best) UK edition of Monopoly. It’s the best place because 1) You have a good chance that people will land at your station due to Chance cards, 2) Players who pass ‘Go’ may be lucky enough to avoid paying income tax, but will often have to pay me instead, and, best of all, 3) When a player lands at the station and pays their toll, you can repeatedly inform them they have just been ‘Railroaded’ (childish, but amusing).

My favourite place is Jail. Non one bothers you and later in the game you don’t have to pay rent to anyone

Fleet Street, as it is red; when I get my car on it, and buy it, I roll better! Red makes you go faster!

The stations, when you have all 4 you can collect double rent and someone almost always lands on them each go round the board. And you don’t even have to put houses on them at great expense. Also, as owner they are such a nice safe place to land on.

Definitely the iron. It brings to mind deep symbolism of grand things like … ironing and housework. The kind of things that gaming helps you forget! And mental images of exciting things like … extreme ironing. The kind of things that gaming is all about. Pushing boundaries, and having fun. That’s iron-man board gaming!
