Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Can you have a hotel on 2 of the red properties and no buildings on the other one?

Answer: No

You can't have more than a one house difference on any two properties of the same color.

2. When you're on a Utility, do you roll the dice again to see how much you pay?

Answer: Only if a chance or community chest card sends you there

The average roll is 7, so you have to pay 28 on average if the owner owns 1, and you have to pay 70 on average if the owner owns both.

3. You roll two fives, landing on the Go To Jail space. What happens?

Answer: You go to jail and end your turn.

In Monopoly, going to jail isn't always bad, especially in the end game where not moving can mean avoiding paying rent.

4. What can you NOT do while in jail?

Answer: Draw a Chance card

You can't draw a Chance card because you're in jail, which means you can't land on a Chance space.

5. You are on the Chance square 4 spaces before Go. The chance card tells you to advance to the nearest Railroad. What happens?

Answer: You go to the railroad 5 spaces past Go, and you collect 200.

Even if you forget to collect the 200, it's yours. You can't lose it if you forget.

6. If you forget to ask for rent, and the next player rolls the dice, can you still collect it?

Answer: No

This is part of the official rules, but people always forget that rule. Players however need to play slowly enough to give you a chance to speak up.

7. If someone lands on a property and decides not to buy it, what happens?

Answer: It's auctioned.

This rule works well with lots of people, but it doesn't work as well with only 2 or 3 players.

8. What happens if the Bank runs out of houses?

Answer: Nobody can buy any houses until one is sold.

There are 32 houses and 12 hotels.

9. When you sell a house, how much money do you get back?

Answer: Half what you paid

When calculating total worth, the houses count as the full value, though.

Answer: You collect 400, and you go again.

You get 200 for passing Go by dice roll, and you collect another 200 for landing on it from the Community Chest card. You go again because you rolled doubles.
