CTF Monopoly is the 10th year anniversary edition of the original Dm Monopoly from 2002.

Inspired by John Falgates awesome Breakfast, Monopoly was one of my first giant maps, where players are the size of game tokens, running around on an oversized Monopoly board in a typical household setting on a rainy day.

Monopoly 2012 has a few elements I had originally hoped to incorporate in the original Monopoly (*but never got around to, which is why the original has a hollow table), mainly the use of an underground maze connecting some of the real estate spaces on the board.

*In mapping, sometimes your imagination has a habit of getting away from you, to the point where you begin implementing all kinds of new ideas you had never intended, while simultaneously forgetting a few of the basics you had set out to accomplish in the first place.

This is a much leaner, sleeker and compact version of the original, with higher quality graphics and a more refined tailored edge. Technological advances have replaced the TV set with a modern portable LCD screen, and the 9 volt batteries have been replaced with iPhones.

Happy anniversary Monopoly, and thanks for playing Js maps.
