    This game taught me two valuable lessons: Credit cards are a source of infinite money that you never have to pay back; Stockholm is the worst place imaginable.

    It's amazing how many years game designers were hobbled by the idea that your game has to move pieces along a track.

      Target Monopoly is real. If you don't know, in the USA there's a supermarket chain called Target, and they made a Monopoly variant. It's so full of propaganda, but it's actually fun??

    This somehow made me remember a relatively weird game from my childhood. It was called "Das Wirtschaftsspiel" (The Economy Game) and was, at least I think, used to promote free markets and european intervention. You could either be a producer or a consumer, but being a consumer meant that you basically couldnt win and you rather needed to buy as much factories as possible and just flood the market. I dont think that was intended, but well...
    It certainly was a game

    Ok something got messed up in the transcriptions of the french pronunciations because the j in “je” and the g in “manger” are not pronounced “sz” they are both (best i can describe without using the international phonetic alphabet) j sounds. I wonder where the gamemaker got those if was a bad dictionary or they mis-heard

    • @woodfur00
      @woodfur00 6 месяцев назад +9

      I wondered if that was just a poor transliteration of the sound, but a different card spells it zh like a sane person, so that can't be it.

    • @SkigBiggler
      @SkigBiggler 2 месяца назад

      The phonetic transcriptions for languages are not really universal if you’re not using a robust system like IPA. They’re also not all that useful because vowels are pronounced differently by English speakers depending on accent, so I don’t think it was meant to be accurate, just close enough. Gives you the gist of things and you’d probably be understood by native speakers.

    • @kotzpenner
      @kotzpenner Месяц назад +1

      Same with German. I think the creator just took the Berlin pronunciation which sounds obnoxious to most Germans.

    It doesnt feel like im bein called a dude in the same way but feels like "doods" is just another word entirely that sounds the same (like reeds and reads) that happens to be the name of those in your community
    Im no dude, but im fine bein part of the doods who watch your stuff :3
