The game Monopoly is probably well known to most of the people who is reading this?
My memory of Monopoly was one of a number of board games I played in my childhood, where you bought and sold things. Recently, I suddenly got bitten by the “board game bug” and ended up buying “Monopoly – World Edition”. Although I have not played it very often, I was sufficiently interested that I decided to also buy a version for my iPhone.
After playing the game on the iPhone against the AI engine for the last couple of days, I have come to realise a few things. While chance/luck is an undeniable factor in the game, there are some strategies that can maximise one’s chances in winning, despite having rotten luck some of the time.
