@Tarbh @Heliograph Yeah, Magie didn’t so much invent Monopoly as invent a game that was then evolved into Monopoly by many people. It was a folk game, like Poker or Chess or Dominos. No inventor. Loads of firms made versions for their home towns. Charles Darrow was taught the games by his neighbours who’d bought their game in Atlantic City. He copied that, including a spelling mistake, and sold it to Parker Brothers.
