One of the first modern board games to shake the hegemony of ancient abstracts. It was in the thirties of the twentieth century, the Great Depression reached its apogee, construction almost completely stopped, businesses went bankrupt, people lost their jobs, and banks burst one after another. Heating equipment installer Charles Darrow also lost his job. What did he do? It is said that he walked dogs, and in his spare time invented his "Monopoly".
SUCCESS STORY
In 1934, Darrow took his game to Parker Brothers. Parker rejected the project - not because the game was a reworked version of the older game "Landlord", but allegedly due to errors in game design. In fact, Darrow, as is usually the case, was a little ahead of his time. Be that as it may, the author did not give up and decided to publish Monopoly (Monopoly) at his own expense. And here he was waiting for success. Darrow made his own hands and sold about 5,000 copies of the game in a Philadelphia department store. And then he met again with representatives of the Parker Brothers. In 1936, "Monopoly" became a bestseller in the United States. Today, more than five hundred million people play Monopoly.
