Gameplay (Operating Instructions)

The game proceeds in turns, with players rolling dice and moving their tokens around the board. The objective is to be the last player remaining with money and properties, driving all other players into bankruptcy.

1. Començant un torn: The player rolls both dice and moves their token clockwise the number of spaces indicated by the dice.
2. Aterratge en un espai:
   • Propietat sense propietari: If you land on an unowned property, you may buy it from the bank for the price printed on the board. If you choose not to buy it, the property is auctioned off to the highest bidder.
   • Propietat: If you land on a property owned by another player, you must pay them rent according to the Title Deed card. Rent increases if the owner has Monorail Stops or Stations on the property.
   • Chance o Caixa comunitària: Draw the top card from the respective pile and follow its instructions.
   • Anar: Passing or landing on "GO" allows you to collect $200 from the bank.
   • Presó: Si acabes a "Vés a la presó", hi vas directament. No cobres 200 $ per passar GO.
   • Impostos: Pay the specified tax amount to the bank.
3. Building Monorail Stops and Stations: Once you own all properties in a color group, you can begin building Monorail Stops (houses) and then Monorail Stations (hotels) on them. Buildings must be erected evenly across the properties in a color group.
4. Trading and Mortgaging: Players can trade properties with each other. Properties can also be mortgaged to the bank for cash, but no rent can be collected on mortgaged properties.
5. Fallida: If a player cannot pay their debts (rent, taxes, etc.), they declare bankruptcy and are out of the game. Their remaining assets are turned over to the player they owe or the bank.
6. Guanyar el joc: The last player remaining in the game, after all others have gone bankrupt, is the winner.
