* ''VideoGame/TheKingOfFighters: Battle De Paradise'' is a UsefulNotes/NeoGeoPocketColor game made by Creator/{{SNK}} where you can play a version of KOF as if was a Monopoly game mixed with Sugoroku, having four {{original|Generation}} {{player character}}s (one of them appeared as TheCameo in ''VideoGame/NeoGeoBattleColiseum'') and many references and other characters from KOF. Also [[NoExportForYou released in Japan only]].

* A parody called ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghettopoly Ghettopoly]]'' was released, resulting in legal action by Creator/{{Hasbro}}.

* ''Videogame/{{Mega Man|Classic}}'' got his own [[NoExportForYou Japan-only]] game called as ''Wily & Right no [=RockBoard=]: That's Paradise'' (usually known just as ''[=RockBoard=]''), which is the seventh game released for the UsefulNotes/{{NES}} and the first spin-off game of the series and the franchise (followed later for the UsefulNotes/{{SNES}}' ''Mega Man Soccer''), which is basically a Monopoly version of Mega Man, where you can play with Mega Man as well with the {{NPC}}s of the series until then as Dr. Light, Dr. Wily, Roll, Dr. Cossack, and Kalinka.

* Like Chile, Malaysia also has a CutAndPasteTranslation clone of Monopoly called ''Jutawan'' (lit. ''Millionaire'') which features Malaysian landmarks instead and is localized into Malay.

* In Chile, there were two tabletop games that were mostly a CutAndPasteTranslation of Monopoly, with the difference that both games are entirely based on Santiago de Chile (Chile's capitol) with real places, counties and even used local money (CLP aka Chilean Pesos). One is ''Metropolis'' and the other is ''La Gran Capital'' ("The Great Capitol"), which are basically the same thing made by different Chilean toy companies, but that became CultClassic games in Chile until today (just like Monopoly worldwide).

** ''Literature/MakingMoney'' deals with the economics of the fantasy city of Ankh-Morpork. If you read it closely, it becomes a game of Monopoly on the Ankh-Morpork board. The next novel in the series, ''Literature/RaisingSteam'' makes the Monopoly analogy even more obvious: it introduces railway stations. WordOfGod is that Creator/TerryPratchett was considering a book dealing with public utilities such as power and lighting, but [[AuthorExistenceFailure his meeting with Death]] got in the way.

* Even when it was made separately from Monopoly and with a different theme, ''TabletopGame/GameOfLife'' can be considered as this, where the final goal is to get as much money as possible to win, but with the difference of making a life of it (with studies, jobs, and decisions as to be married and get a family) instead of just make the typical buy-sell-rent decisions.

* ''WesternAnimation/Ducktales2017'': The episode "[[Recap/Ducktales2017S2E1TheMostDangerousGameNight The Most Dangerous Game...Night!]]" features "Scrooge-oploy", a Scrooge [=McDuck=]'s own version of Monopoly where [[{{Calvinball}} he made the rules to benefit him]].

* ''Series/{{Red Dwarf}}'': In "Samsara", Rimmer and Lister play a game of Mine-opoly. Instead of passing 'go', you pass 'Blast off!', there are squares with 'oil' and 'fuel'. Cards include 'Fuel taxs, miss three goes', 'Free fuel'. Instead of houses, players build space stations.

* ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerbTheMovieAcrossTheSecondDimension'' briefly shows the Doof-ruled 2nd Dimension version of Phineas and Ferb playing Doofopoly. There's only one "1" spot on a wheel full of zeros and one of the instruction cards has "Conform" on it.

* ''Film/MoonZeroTwo'': At one point, J.J. "100%" Hubbard is seen playing "Moon-Opoly". This resulted in a LamePunReaction when the movie aired on ''Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000'', with Tom Servo saying, "Let's moon 'em."

TabletopGame/{{Monopoly}} is a very popular tabletop game, probably ''THE'' most popular tabletop game in history. Saying this, there're a lot of [[ReferencedBy/{{Monopoly}} references in media]]. But also there're cases of other tabletop games where they got a similar and coincidential gameplay, or just got [[FollowTheLeader inspired by Monopoly]] to be their own game. This trope is for those Monopoly-like games in media, not just tabletop games, but similar (or [[SturgeonsLaw cut-and-paste copycat]]) games you can find out there in comics, books, series and video games as a GameWithinAGame.

* ''[[https://monopoly.fandom.com/wiki/Housing_Bust_Edition Monopoly: Housing Bust Edition]]'' was a one-shot editorial cartoon commenting on the real estate crisis of the mid-2000's. It was not a game, but was listed as one of fictional Monopoly versions, anyway.

* The Literature/{{Discworld}} novel ''Literature/MakingMoney'' deals with the economics of the fantasy city of Ankh-Morpork. If you read it closely, it becomes a game of Monopoly on the Ankh-Morpork board. The next novel in the series, ''Literature/RaisingSteam'' makes the Monopoly analogy even more obvious: it introduces railway stations. WordOfGod is that Creator/TerryPratchett was considering a book dealing with public utilities such as power and lighting; but [[AuthorExistenceFailure his meeting with Death]] got in the way.

* In the ''Series/AdamRuinsEverything'' episode "Adam Ruins: The Suburbs," when Adam explains to [[AudienceSurrogate Ron]] how the suburbs are a symbol of modern day segregation, he pulls out a game called "Settlers of Suburbia: Red Lining Edition." Adam explains that during TheGreatDepression, the [[UsefulNotes/FranklinDRoosevelt F.D.R. administration]] set up programs to help people get loans to save their homes, and to determine who got those loans, cities were red lined. Ron's son, little Donovan gets the green zone part of the board, representing white neighborhoods, and Ron got the red zone representing minority neighborhoods. Every time little Donovan rolled the dice, he got rewarded with community chest-like cards, and built bigger and better lodgings for his little fiugre, Ron on the other hand got punished by the community chest-like cards, and built nothing on his side of the board. And just as Ron was not allowed to go into the green zone of the game board, Adam explains that the Federal government allowed suburban developers to enforce racial segregation.
* A "Measly Middle Ages" sketch of ''Series/HorribleHistories'' depicts [[UsefulNotes/TheHouseOfNormandy William The Conquer]]'s invasion of Medieval England through a board game called "Normanopoly". It is a circular board with Medieval versions of Monopoly player spaces, and the player pieces are a crown, a wooden ship, and a wild pig. As players go around the board, churches and abbeys are constructed in order to appease the gods after the murder of thousands of Saxons. Board spaces can be renamed, just as the real-life town of Nottingham was renamed as such from the more disgusting sounding Snottingham. [[CalvinBall The rules are even made up as the players go]].

* Even when it was made separately of Monopoly and with a different theme, ''TabletopGame/GameOfLife'' can be considered as this, where the final goal is to get as much money as posible to win, but with the difference of make a life of it (with studies, jobs and decisions as to be married and get a family) instead of just make the typical buy-sell-rent decisions.
* In Chile, there were two tabletop games that were mostly a CutAndPasteTranslation of Monopoly, with the difference that both games are enterely based on Santiago de Chile (Chile's capitol) with real places, counties and even used local money (CLP aka Chilean Pesos). One is ''Metropolis'' and the other is ''La Gran Capital'' ("The Great Capitol"), which are basically the same thing made by different Chilean toy companies, but that became CultClassic games in Chile until today (just like Monopoly).

* An UrExample is the OlderThanPrint Japanese game ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sugoroku Sugoroku]]'', a tabletop game popular in Asia only for generations with two variants, the ''ban-sugoroku'' (similar to TabletopGame/{{Backgammon}}, obsolete) and the ''e-sugoroku'', which has the feature of going thru a map and passing for different territories, having a similar theme than Monopoly. The later is the most known version of sugoroku and it was used as base for some spin-offs for video game franchises or minigames inside them, to name few of them there're sugoroku (mini)games for ''VideoGame/GanbareGoemon'', ''Franchise/HelloKitty'', ''VideoGame/SamuraiWarriors'' and even the ''VideoGame/MarioParty'' games got references of sugoroku.
* ''Monopoly'' is itself a derivate of Elizabeth Magie's ''The Landlord's Game'', created on 1903 to promote Georgism.

* ''Videogame/{{Mega Man|Classic}}'' got his own [[NoExportForYou Japan-only]] game called as ''Wily & Right no [=RockBoard=]: That's Paradise'' (usually known just as ''[=RockBoard=]''), which is the seventh game released for the UsefulNotes/{{NES}} and the first spin-off game of the series and the franchise (followed later for the UsefulNotes/{{SNES}}' ''Mega Man Soccer''), which is basically a Monopoly version of Mega Man, where you can play with Mega Man as well with the {{NPC}}s of the series until then as Dr. Light, Dr. Wily, Roll, Dr. Cossack and Kalinka.

* ''Film/MoonZeroTwo'': At one point, J.J. "100%" Hubbard is seen playing "Moon-Opoly". This resulted in a LamePunReaction when the movie aired on ''Series/MysterScienceTheater3000'', with Tom Servo saying, "Let's moon 'em."

Sub-trope of StockParodies. Usually overlaps with FictionalBoardGame. Not to be confused with ThemedStockBoardGame, which is "Monopoly as TheMerch". See also [[ReferencedBy/{{Monopoly}} ReferencedBy.Monopoly]], which are references of this game in other media (which some modified versions can overlap here), and {{Calvinball}}, where characters play Monopoly [[ScrewTheRulesIMakeThem with their own rules]] changing the game completely.
