Hi all, I think that this is not Off-Topic. It is about a game that is accessible, although it is not neither video nor audio game but a braille monopoly that I ordered on Ebay and it arrived some time ago. Now I am trying to play and have some questions, and if this is off-topic I will make no

Hi Milos, I myself played the digital and physical versions of monopoly, so I'll try and answer your questions. When you buy a property, you just put the money for it in the bank and take the card with the info for the property you bought. Regarding the money distribution, I can't remember how

Hello all, it's me again with one more question. Now that I know how to distribute the money, it can happen that a player doesn't have a banknote of 2 dollars and has to pay. Can he give to a player to whom he has to pay another banknote and then the other player gives him the rest? Is it

Hi Milos, sure you can do that. The player who gets paid can give back the rest, or you can change money in the bank if a player maybe has too many or not enough notes of one kind. That's vital to the game, if you couldn't do these things you would get stuck all the time because of lack of

Hi Milos, This is in deed on topic so no worries. When this list was originally established back in the mid 90's the list included all accessible games including standard board, puzzle, and card games in braille as well as electronic versions. So I am glad you asked your questions here. As to

Hi Milos, Absolutely. I don't know if it is in the rules but it is common sense if you owe another player $2 and all you have is a $5 to give him/her a $5 and get three $1's back in exchange. That is the only way the game would work because after a while it is necessary for one player or the

Hi Milo. Funny you didn't get a manual. It's stated in the Monopoly rules that at the start of the game, one player is designated the banker. This doesn't actually mean anything in play terms, or give any advantages to that player, but basically the banker is the one who handles all the

Just like in life. If you owe someone $2, and you have a $5 bill, you either get change from the bank or give the player you owe the $5 and get 3 $1 bills as change. It's common sense. --- Shepherds are the best beasts, but Labs are a close second. - Original Message - From: Milos

Hi Charles: I am not sure about the U.K. rule book, but what you stated below matches with my son's Monopoly board game rule book. I scanned the appropriate section and the American rules are two $500's, two $100's, two $50's, six $20's, and five of everything else. Pretty easy to remember, and
