RULES:
Players have a choice of 2 ways of playing and winning the game. Option 1: the object is to bankrupt all the other players. Option 2: the object is to be the richest competitor after all monopolists have been eliminated; or to be the richest monopolist after all competitors have been eliminated.
Layout the board and shuffle the competitor and monopolists decks and place them face-down on their spots on the board. Pick on person to be the treasurer. The treasurer handles all the money, title cards, houses, and apartments. The treasurer must keep their own money separate from the treasury. Shuffle the competitor and monopolist decks and place them face-down on their spots on the board. To determine turn order, each player rolls dice and the player with the highest sum goes first, then play proceeds clockwise. Before play begins players must choose a role to either be a competitor or a monopolist, these picks are subject to role-balancing.
If there are an even number of players, then the total number of competitors and monopolists must be even. If there is an odd number of players, then the total number of competitors and monopolists must not differ by more than 1. Once you pick your role, it cannot be changed during the game.
Give each player two 500s and 50s, three 100s, seven 10s, and five 5s and 1s. In turn order each player picks a colored token, blue if you are a monopolist and green if you are a competitor. Place the tokens on start and the game begins. On your turn, roll both dice and move your token exactly that many spaces clockwise around the board. If you roll doubles, you take 1 extra turn, if you roll doubles on the extra turn then you do not take another turn.
When you land on an unowned street, transportation company, or utility you may purchase it from the treasury as indicated by the price on the space. If you do not wish to buy it, then nothing happens and it stays with the treasury. If you land on a space that another player owns, then you pay them the amount listed on the card based on their role and number of buildings the space has, if any. All other types of payment go to the treasury.
You may only build buildings on your turn. Competitors can build on any single property they own, while monopolists must wait until they have at least 2 properties in the same color before they can build buildings. If a monopolist owns 2 out of 3 properties for a city, and another player owns the 3rd one, then they may only charge the “no houses” price. Competitors may build like normal on a single property in a city when a monopolist owns the other 2.
To build, on your turn, pay the treasury the price indicated on the card then take an unused building from the treasury and place it on the space. Competitors place buildings on the name of the city while monopolists place their buildings on the M. Once a competitor has 4 houses, they may build an apartment by removing the 4 houses and buying an apartment. Monopolists, on the other hand only need to build 3 houses before they can get an apartment. You do not have to build evenly across streets, but once you build a building, you may not move it to another street. There is no limit to the number of buildings; so if the treasury runs out of building to use, use other objects, like paper, to represent more. [show paper image of house symbol]
If you need money, you can sell houses back to the treasury for half their initial cost. You can also mortgage title cards to receive half their value from the treasury by flipping the title card over. You cannot mortgage a property that has buildings on it and you do not collect rent from mortgaged properties. To unmortgage a property, pay the treasury the indicated price and flip the title card back over. Monopolists cannot have houses in a city if any of the 2 properties needed for the monopolization are mortgaged. A monopolist can only collect the lowest rent in those situations.
Players may trade properties, mortgaged properties, and/or money but not buildings. You must sell all buildings on a property before you can trade it. You are allowed to trade at any time except for the moment after dice have been rolled and a piece is being moved.
When you land on or pass the start space, collect $100 from the treasury. When moving around the first corner of the board you place your piece in the “sightseeing” space...

You can tell it's not a Hasbro-licensed spinoff because they got rid of the "Go To Jail" man
Reading one of the boxes off Amazon the trademark "Anti-Monopoly" *is* owned by Hasbro.
The "Go To Jail" man.
Best description of a police man I have ever heard.
I think his name is Edgar Mallory, because all 1930s police men were Irish. Pretty fun.
@@dannypipewrench533Correct. Mr. Monopoly's old name is Milburn Pennybags, and the guy in jail is Jake, the Jailbird
I can't figure out why this isn't presented as just a variation on standard monopoly, so many of the rules are just exactly the same. And even the rules for the competitors are only slightly altered from the rules for the monopolists
Oh, you interpreted the name as "the antonym of Monopoly", when it should be "a movement that is against monopolies", hence the presence of competitors
I think because there are so many changes on the base rules: no auctions, no doubles rerolls, etc. That It deserves to be it's own thing. Or it is because its not affiliated with hasbro
@@danielchan1668 no, I'm asking Triple S why they didn't present it as a variation. "The rules are similar to the rules of Monopoly, except for these changes"
I get for the company to present itself as totally different for copyright purposes, but for anyone to review the game or present the rules to say "hey it's very similar to this other game"
When Monopoly was invented there was actually 2 versions, Monopoly and Anti-Monopoly. While both were similar, Monopoly took the spotlight and Anti-Monopoly faded from public memory after a while.
An earlier version, which I have been unable to find was subtitled "bust the trust." Also, there were a lot of legal issues between the makers and *Parker Brothers* including an attempt by *Parker Brothers* to rewrite the origin of the game to disallow Anti-Monopoly entirely. The greater similarity to Monopoly in the more modern versions is a result of greater conformity to "Landlord's Game" which was in the public domain.
"The rules are the same as regular Monopoly, except for these changes:"
*Not anymore.*
No. Just no.
Who would want to be a monopolist? They have so many disadvantages, and their only advantage is that they need fewer houses to build an apartment. Unless their cards are extremely overpowered, there is no reason to play as them.
From what I saw, most of the time they collect nearly double rent on all properties
you got the point
it's called anti-monopoly for a reason, y'know
Well, monopolist gains doubled money in almost any case, soo... It's high risk and high reward situation
That’s the point
They also collect way more rent once they start monopolizing and building.
I'm almost certainly never going to play this, but I love the idea
That paper house looks spot on.
I think this is supposed to be based on the original version of monopoly, The Landlord’s Game. If you don’t know, Monopoly was based on a game called “The Landlord’s Game,” which was created by an antimonopolist to show why monopolies are bad, and let players play as monopolists and antimonopolists. The creator patented and self published the game, and more rules were added on throughout the years. Eventually, a man named Charles Darrow played the game with a close friend of his wife, and, not knowing it was not an original game, went and published it himself as Monopoly. Monopoly was bought by Parker Brothers, and when they found out the game wasn’t his, they bought out the original patent, making Monopoly a Parker Brothers game. They changed some rules, added some stuff, removed some stuff, and boom, monopoly.
In other interesting news, in the 1970s the person that made this game here was sued by Parker Brothers. The person obviously won, but not until 1979, when it was ruled that Monopoly was a generic term. Interestingly, that was over-ruled in 1984, but Anti-Monopoly was exempted from this.
Oh yeah, and to the people saying that the Monopolist rules seem worse, that’s the exact intention.
if so, this is a crude way to try to rescue the original game. or maybe late 19th century people were smarter, 'cuz I see no message in here.
Hey, let's make a game about ani-monopolysm!
10 years later:
Our game is now called monopoly. F***.
Yeah, no. The original creator was a socialist, it was nothing like this.
The original creator was a woman (no "playing a game with the wife") and Darrow knew that the original creator couldn't get it published (because women couldn't have rights). She sold the idea to him with the promise that he would give her credit. He did not.
The original had little to do with monopolies or being against them. Rather it was about tax reform, to tax based purely on landownership (called georgism) rather than what we currently still have in most of the world which is both income, luxury and consumption tax. This still exists in modern monopoly with the luxury and income tax spaces.
@@relo999American ANTI-MONOPOLIST Lizzie Magie created a game that she hoped would explain the single-tax theory of Henry George. It was intended as an educational tool, to illustrate the negative aspects of concentrating land in private monopolies.
She created two sets of rules: an anti-monopolist set in which all were rewarded when wealth was created, and a monopolist set in which the goal was to create monopolies and crush opponents.
actually a well-made game.
somewhat asymmetric monopoly with team play
I enjoy
Yeah hasbro monopoly games suck
@@chewycornell, it sucks, intentionally - the game is deliberately highlighting the frustration of losers against a clear winner
0:58 - The total number of competitors and monopolists must be "even". Should it be "equal" instead?
Different way of speaking English I guess. Even has the meaning of the same I think.
“Even” can mean a number divisible by 2, but it can also mean “at the same level or amount.” This includes “equal,” but can also refer to less easily quantifiable things, like “spread the frosting evenly across the cake.”
I imagine the mathematical terms “even” and “odd” are derived from their common meanings: If you have an even number of things, you can divide those things evenly into two groups, whereas if you have an odd number, those two groups will be different from each other (and “odd,” at its core, means different).
Here, since you’re dividing into two groups, an even number of players will divide evenly, so both meanings apply.
.
the house replacement is the best
Competitors seem like the best choice when playing this game
Monopolist have a slight benefit on buying property and building houses.
I think that's supposed to be the point... But at the same time the monopolist earn more money...
Competitors make less but are easier
From what I'm hearing from the comments, monopolists can earn more but they can also lose more.
I used to have a copy of the game. As I remember, its documentation said many of the rules were intended to balance the game. But competitors have an advantage in the early game, and monopolists get more power as the game progresses.
3:21 unlimited buildings hehe
At 2:21 Does the monopolist only get the no houses money or the other person that only owns 1 building?
I Saw This Game Today On The Store!
Is there a Monopoly Great Reset version, where the objective is to own nothing and be happy while eating ze bugs?
It's called real life
@@fatfloppa3919 Pretty soon it might be! 😆
Teddy Roosevelt approves!
A variation that I came up with:
You can roll doubles up to 3 times, with the 3rd time making you get sent to jail or you get engaged in a price war.
Monopolists auction for the property if a player doesn't want to buy a property.
Monopolists must own every property of a color set to build houses.
Monopolists must build evenly.
Price war costs $25 per failed double while Prison costs $50 on the 2nd failed double.
Competitors are allowed to give or lend money or make special deals among other Competitors. (Only works when the two sides are competing against each other)
If the goal of the game is to eliminate one side, then the Competitors are on one team and the Monopolists are on another team. Every property is shared between the two teams.
Ok, heres my Variation:
There are 2 ways to win, but totally different. Its 1 VS 3 in a 4-Player Game.
1. If you are the competitors, bankrupt the monopolist to achieve a Team Victory, even if one or two competitors have been bankrupt before that.
2. If you are the Monopolist, eliminate all competitors OR own the whole board to win.
The solo Monopolist starts with DOUBLE the cash of what competitors start with. Monopolist always goes first, then the play continues clockwise. The Monopolist has A Special Ability: He/She can roll Doubles 3 times at most, then they go to jail if that happens. He/She can take a 3rd action before heading to jail and ending their turn.
If the Monopolist lands on a property a competitor owns, he/she pays normal rent. If your competitor teammate lands on another competitor's property, the rent payment is HALVED(Round Up if needed). Similarly, if a Competitor lands on a property owned by a Monopolist, they pay normal rent, but if the Monopolist lands on their own property, nothing happens.
Competitors can trade with fellow competitors, but not the Monopolist. The Monopolist can however, Takeover a competitors property. To do so, pay the Listed Price PLUS Double the rent to the owner instead of normal rent, and you can snatch a property ALONG WITH THEIR BUILDINGS!! If you Takeover a property that has 4 Houses, Congrats! You get an apartment for FREE!
The rest remains the same.
Didn't Parker Brothers file a lawsuit over this game when it was first published?
1:01 Me trying to figure out how difference can be negative
Well if there are 4 monopolists & 5 competitors, the difference will be 1 if you do competitors - monopolists and -1 if you do monopolists - competitors. Difference can be negative if you are subtracting a bigger number from a smaller number.
Speaking of anti, you should cover the Mad Magazine the board game. The objective of the game is to lose all of your money instead. Though I worry it's no longer in production many years ago, but my mother own one such extremely rare board game made in 1979
it's not that rare, also there were two runs a 60's run and a 80's run. you can find them for about $30 online
@@CasperTheRestless , huh, I thought it's no longer in production and be declared as rare item and that can cost about $1000 at least to buy on Ebay or something like that. But wow, such an artifact will be cool to own, and Triple S will have another board game added into the collection.
@@arrowghost hah, I wish. I picked one up at a antique store a while ago (the original run) for 20 bucks, if it was rare I would most certainly have sold it. do with he would do it, it would be a great April fools episode
@@CasperTheRestless , I own the one with the Yellow Cover, not the white one as per in Google Image. But wow, still not that expensive, but it's certainly fun to play, a twisted & reverse version of Monopoly. 😆 Triple S should cover that, or at least hopefully he buys one or someone donated that board game.
I particularly like that game's rule about the $1,329,063 bill that you can only collect if your name is Alfred E. Neuman.
I had this when I was a kid and I can safely say I was playing it quite wrong...
😂
Ive played this twice monoplist won both times it is really hard to win as a competer
Millennial monopoly: all the properties start off owned, there's a 25% chance that when you rent one the roof will collapse and you have to go to hospital (replacing the jail). Income tax is replaced by pumpkin spice lattes, the amount you get from GO reduces by 2% each time you pass it, and the game ends when one player buys a property.
There’s already a millennial monopoly
Pls teach us how to play payday from Hasbro
Isn't this the game Monopoly sued for violation of copyright?
(Yes, I know you can't copyright a game but aspects of it like art can still be copyrighted.)
2:30 isnt the pricing of the houses and the land too high compared to the rents? Buillding 5 houses plus the land, being a competitor, costs 350$, and you only get 35$ in return when someone lands there. So in order not to lose money, the players have to land there at least 10 times! It is highly unlikely to make profit as a competitor and even more unlikely to bankrupt the fellow players. Lets not forget that the starting budget is 1500$!
Legends are watching without anti Monopoly
03:34 You CANNOT MORTGAGE A PROPERTY that has buildings on it and you DO NOT COLLECT RENT from mortgaged properties.
2:22 I don't think this rule is legitimate. My handbook does not mention anything like that, and I haven't been able to find anything online mentioning this rule. Does anyone know if this really is a thing mentioned in the game's rules?
Basically monopolists have higher risk, higher difficulty, but bigger rewards... So it's better for experienced players
It's Monopoly. Everything is based on chance. Experience is basically irrelevant.
@@mattchstick You can make decisions in the game. Not everything is based on chance.
@@mattchstick This isn't Chutes and Ladders (or Snakes and Ladders if you prefer)
@@mattchstick Technically, with experience, you can start to see patterns of where people land, what plots are the best to buy and things like that, so it is still relevant.
This just seems like a bootleg Monopoly rather than an "anti-Monopoly", but looking it up on Wikipedia there was an earlier version where the board started out completely monopolized like at the end of a regular Monopoly game and you played as federal case workers indicting the monopolized businesses to break the monopoly. That concept alone sounds way better from basically every angle you can look at it from and I have no idea why they changed it into being even less distinct from Monopoly than a lot of the official variations
Why doesn’t the game come with infinite houses 😂
If only the real world was that fair
Love this. Got any cool games you can make
Other than a way to separate the competitors from the monopolists in jail, is there any other purpose to the Price War space?
No
This game seems like it would last forever, the price one pays when landing on an opponents property with houses on it is nerfed so much, wether they're a competitor or a monopolist.
Look at "Wall Street New York" (the replacement for boardwalk) with 4 houses as a monopolist you only get to charge $240
Someone would have to land on that property 5 times just to break even on the money you've spent!
6:10 Some online versions says that the monopolist only pays $10 when on a Anti Monopoly Foundation.
That might be true, I just did the rules to the board game version.
@@TripleSGamesWhy can’t you mortgage a property that has buildings on it and why DON’T you collect rent from mortgaged properties?
It’s like Monopoly, but with commercial and residential zoning.
In the 70s or 80s i saw another game called anti monoply at forst then changed to antitrust where you broke up monopolies
I like your videos can you do monopoly go green pls
Request: Mario Kart Wii
being a competitor seems much better than being a monopolist tbh
The biggest difference between competitors and monopolists is that if a monopolist manages to get two properties of a certain color, they earn _twice_ the amount of money as they would if they were a competitor.
Because that's how it's meant to happen? This was a game showing monopolies and monopolists are bad.
I feel like I would miss the auction rule. Auctions really sped the game up
My family never does auction

Huh... I have a board game here called "Anti-monopoly" But it's different. Instead of being a monopolist or competitor, you're a lawyer trying to bust up monopolies... other than that, you're basically playing monopoly.

Look carefully at the rent on the properties.
How is this like real estate? Seems like just a bootleg variation of monopoly….
Ok
I fail to see how this is "anti" monopoly. The goal is the same: be the last player left in the game after bankrupting everyone or be the richest player when the game ends. I feel like if it was "anti" Monopoly, the goal should be to be broke? Lose all your money?
