If you play monopoly with house rules that make it more similar to a real mix of sovereign economies, surely the latter. (Source: I have played with such house rules. Yes, it gets more interesting than vanilla monopoly. Yes, that's how inflation happens in those games. One bank has never, so far, suddenly decided to give people money they don't need (that sounds like financial suicide). External events, however, have caused changes in demand for one bank currency which forces that bank to lend more money.)
- wallacoloo 5y agoso… what are these house rules?
- kqr 5y agoThe core of it is free banking: anyone who wants to can produce their own currency and manage it however they want. The exchange rate to the standard monopoly currency is determined by the market. Another major element (though more common in house rules) is that arbitrary agreements between players are allowed, enforced only by one's honour. (These rules probably only work when sort of the same group of people play multiple sessions.)
