The game was created to be a 'practical demonstration of the present system of land grabbing with all its usual outcomes and consequences'. Interesting facts : In 1902 to 1903, Elizabeth Magie designed The Landlord's Game and play tested it in Arden, Delaware. From the 1904 patented version to the published 1906 version, the property names were changed and the rule for increased rent for multiple railroad owned. The published game included Chance cards with quotes attributed to Thomas Jefferson, John Ruskin and Andrew Carnegie. New York City’s Broadway, Fifth Avenue, and Wall Street were the top properties in price and rent. The board featured a track around the outside edge of the board split into blocks representing properties and had their purchase price, and their rental value listed in the block. A win in the anti-monopolist, or Single Tax version and later called by Magie as 'Prosperity Game', was when the player having the lowest monetary amount has double his original stake. The anti-monopolist rules reward all during wealth creation while the monopolist rules had the goal of forming monopolies and forcing opponents out of the game. The set had rules for two different games, anti-monopolist and a monopolist. Features: The Landlord's Game is a realty and taxation game, which is considered to be the direct inspiration for the board game Monopoly.
