How To Bet
MONOPOLY: You're in the Money features 30 paylines. You can choose how much to bet per line. You can also use Auto Spin to play the game for you.

LINE BET

Displays current bet per line shown in currency. Click the left arrow (with a minus sign) to decrease bet per line. Click the right arrow (with a plus sign) to increase bet per line. Clicking the left and right arrows does not necessarily decrease or increase your line bet in a linear fashion. Rather, your line bet decreases or increases at preset increments which represent the most popular bet amounts.

LINES

Displays current number of paylines selected. Betting is fixed at 30 paylines.

SPIN

Click to spin the reels and submit your bet.
Auto Spin Feature
Auto Spin plays the game automatically for a given number of games at 30 lines and the current line bet. Once you have selected your desired line bet, click AUTO SPIN and choose how many games you want to play. Auto Spin will keep playing the specified number of games until you click the STOP button, you trigger a Board Bonus, or your balance is insufficient to spin again.
Mystery Wild Bonus
The Mystery Wild Bonus can be triggered after any base game reel outcome that does not contain a Logo symbol on the first reel or a Board Bonus symbol on any reel.

When the Mystery Wild Bonus triggers, MR. MONOPOLY suddenly appears, hopping from reel to reel until he selects a reel to turn wild. MR. MONOPOLY may or may not continue turning reels wild, possibly turning all five reels wild for an enormous payout.
Board Bonus
You can trigger the Board Bonus by getting three Board Bonus symbols anywhere on the first, third and fifth reels. You are then prompted to pick one of the three Board Bonus symbols to reveal your initial number of rolls. You can earn one, two, or three rolls initially.

On your way to the Board Bonus, you are asked to pick your lucky token. Your choice of token does not affect your game payback.

Pays awarded in the Board Bonus will be multiplied by your bet per line on the reel spin that triggered the bonus.

In the Board Bonus, Mr. MONOPOLY prompts you to click the ROLL button to roll the dice for each of your rolls. Your token starts on the GO spot. Your token is moved the number of board spots equal to your dice roll total. Rolling doubles earns you an extra roll. Rolling doubles three times in row triggers the Jail Bonus.

Different bonus features are awarded all along the board.

Property Bonus:If you land on a property, you get one spin on a mini-slot machine. Your win is determined by the symbols that land on the centre payline. You can win both money and extra dice rolls on the same spin. As you progress around the board, the mini-slot machines offer richer and richer paytables with Wild, 2xWild, and finally 3xWild symbols. See the paytable for details.

Utility Bonus:If you land on a utility, you get one roll of the Utility dice. You get paid based on the sum of the Utility dice. The higher the sum, the bigger the award you win. See the paytable for details. Getting doubles also earns you an extra roll in the Board Bonus. However, your token does not move based on the dice roll in the Utility Bonus.

CHANCE/COMMUNITY CHEST Bonus:If you land on CHANCE or COMMUNITY CHEST, you receive a random card from the corresponding deck. Card effects include:

Move your token to a property spot

Move your token to a utility spot

Move your token to the GO square

Award you money

Award you extra rolls

Send you directly to the Jail Bonus

Railroad Bonus:If you land on a railroad, your token advances to the next railroad spot on the board and you earn an extra roll.

Free Parking Bonus:If you land on the Free Parking square, you earn an extra roll.

Go to Jail Bonus:If you land on the Go to Jail square, your token is sent directly to Jail and the Jail Bonus begins. You do not pass GO or collect the GO award when this happens.

Jail Bonus:In the Jail Bonus, your token is moved directly to the Jail spot on the board. You do not collect the GO award when you go to the Jail Bonus. In the Jail Bonus, you have three attempts to roll doubles. If you roll doubles once in the three tries, you get out of Jail and receive a special award. (See the paytable for details.) Otherwise, you resume your Board Bonus from the Jail square. You do not get an extra roll if you roll doubles in the Jail Bonus. Also, your token is not moved by any of your dice rolls in the Jail Bonus.

Go Bonus:If you land on or pass the GO spot, you are awarded 200x your triggering line bet. You do not collect this award if your token is sent to the Jail Bonus.

Income Tax, Just Visiting, Luxury Tax:you land on Income Tax, Just Visiting, or Luxury Tax, you receive no awards.

According to Hasbro, since Charles Darrow patented the game in 1935, approximately 750 million people have played the game, making it "the most played (commercial) board game in the world." The 1999 Guinness Book of Records cited Hasbro's previous statistic of 500 million people having played Monopoly. Games Magazine has inducted Monopoly into its Hall of Fame.

Spinoffs

Film

On June 19, 2007, Ridley Scott announced that he was directing a comedy-thriller based on the game, featuring a variety of young actors to generate interest in the game. Scarlett Johannson and Kirsten Dunst have been considered so far.[30]

Computer games

Besides the many variants of the actual game (and the Monopoly Junior spin-off) released in either video game or computer game formats (e.g. Windows-based PC, Macintosh, Game Boy, Game Boy Advance, Sega Genesis, Commodore 64, etc.), two spin-off computer games have been created.

Monopoly Tycoon is a PC game in the Tycoon series that makes strategy and speed into determining factors for winning the game, eliminating completely the element of luck inherent in the dice rolls of the original. The game uses the U.S. standard Atlantic City properties as its basis, but the game play is unique to this version. The game also allows for solo and multiplayer online games.

Monopoly Casino is also a PC game, simulating a casino full of Monopoly-based adaptations of various casino games (most notably, slot machines). This program was released in both standard and "Vegas" editions, each featuring unique games.

Monopoly: Star Wars is another PC game based on the standard Monopoly board but with Star Wars characters and locations.

On April 23, 2008 Electronic Arts announced that they would be releasing in Q3 2008 a new version of Monopoly for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 2 and Wii video game consoles.

Other board/dice/card games

Parker Brothers and its licensees have also sold several games which are spinoffs of Monopoly. These are not add-ons, as they do not function as an addition to the Monopoly game, but are simply additional games in the flavor of Monopoly.

* Monopoly Junior board game: A simplified version of the original game for young children.
* Advance to Boardwalk board game: Focusing mainly on building the most hotels along the Boardwalk.
* Express Monopoly card game: Released by Hasbro/Parker Brothers and Waddingtons in the UK in the 1990s, now out of print. Basically a rummy-style card game based on scoring points by completing color group sections of the game board.
* Monopoly: The Card Game: an updated card game released by Winning Moves Games under license from Hasbro. Similar, but decidedly more complex, gameplay to the Express Monopoly card game.
* Free Parking card game: A more complex card game released by Parker Brothers, with several similarities to the card game Mille Bornes. Uses cards to either add time to parking meters, or spend the time doing activities to earn points. Includes a deck of Second Chance cards that further alter gameplay. (Two editions were made; minor differences in card art and Second Chance cards in each edition.)
* Don't Go To Jail: Dice Game originally released by Parker Brothers; roll combinations of dice to create color groups for points before rolling the words "GO" "TO" and "JAIL" (which forfeits all earned points for the turn).
* Monopoly Express: A deluxe, travel-able edition re-release of Don't Go To Jail, replacing the word dice with "Officer Jones" dice and adding an eleventh die, Houses & Hotels, and a self-contained game container/dice roller & keeper.[33]
* Monopoly Express Casino: A gambling-themed version of the above game, that adds wagering to the gameplay.
* Here and Now Electronic Edition: Destroys the need for money, using credit cards instead. (Credit: Wikipedia).
