Ghettopoly

Posted by Chris

The story of the true origins of Monopoly, which I covered here the other day, gets recounted in today’s Guardian in the course of an article on the highly dubious game “Ghettopoly” of which the object is “to become the richest playa through stealing, cheating and fencing stolen properties.” Hasbro, the current owners (or should that be “owners”?) of the rights to Monopoly are threatening legal action.
