* SettingUpdate: Various attempts have been made to bring the game up to modern standards of real estate and economics. Typically by scaling the game up to global real estate (major landmarks or even ''whole cities'') or having the game center around corporate mergers and buyouts (stuffing the game with heaps of ProductPlacement in the process). Or they'll simply [[RidiculousFutureInflation multiply the old property prices by a million]] and swap out the paper monos for a debit card reader.

** If you land on an unclaimed property and each of your opponents have less cash on hand than what it costs, it's better to let it go to auction as long as doing so doesn't carry the potential to give someone other than yourself a monopoly. Your opponents can either spend themselves into debt, or they can let you have the property for less than its actual value - either way, [[XanatosGambit you end up the winner]].

* SoreLoser: Per its slogan, the ''For Sore Losers'' edition encourages--and celebrates--losing, by allowing collection of Sore Loser coins every time you encounter a bad event, such as paying money or going to Jail. Trading in four coins at the start of any turn of yours converts your token to Mr. Monopoly and causes most of the rules to turn ''upside down'' for you only--you can now take money instead of giving it, send any other player to go to Jail in your place, and so on.

** Depending on the board conditions, getting the Property Assessment, "Advance to Boardwalk/Mayfair" or "Advance to Illinois Ave./Trafalgar Square" cards can instantly cripple you, or knock you out of the game completely. Drawing the "go back three spaces" Chance card between Kentucky Avenue and Indiana Avenue can also be ruinous if another player has houses or a hotel on New York Avenue.
