Anti-Monopoly gives new meaning to the word Monopoly by pitting free market competitors against ruthless monopolists. If you love traditional Monopoly board games, then this new variant will make you question your perceptions and give a completely new insight into strategy and competition. This is an exciting way to think through the classic gameplay while looking at new dynamics.
In Anti-Monopoly, one has to make a choice between supporting free enterprise or being a monopoly. Each option comes with its own set of rules that defines how the game will be played. The difficulty lies in choosing which path to take and how to play based on the chosen role. Whichever option a player takes-whether it is free market or monopoly route-the game provides a new dimension to the strategy that can be used.
But for an even more dynamic experience, try playing both sides to see how the game shifts when your approach changes. Anti-Monopoly works for any person who wants to add a little fun and something thought-provoking to their game night. Jump into the game and experience this exciting new version of a classic favorite!

We need clarification on rule 10 bullet point 5. It is really unclear as a previous comment explains.

Scott says:
We need clarity on a portion of the rules about "What Monopolists and Competitors can do in a City". Bullet 5 says: monopolists (who own 2 of 3 streets) cannot build on a 3rd street (if not owned) and can only collect the "No Houses" rent. Does that mean, they cannot collect more than "No Houses" on their 2 owned streets or does it mean they get to collect "no house" rent on the other person's street (as part of the monopoly of the city)?

Hilarious game. I've never played a game where you tried to do as bad as you possibly can. You are even suppose to be mean to other players. Very different and funny to learn how to play.

I remember skipping school and going home to play this with my brother. We loved monopoly and thought it was hilarious to play a game that had rules that were completely opposite from the real game. Fun concept for a game.
