Steemopoly - Monopoly for Steem

Click here to enlarge

Inspired by the work of ned0flanders and his cryptocoinopoly I have decided to create the monopoly game for Steem. The rules are the same of monopoly, with the difference that instead of renting you receive incomes for posting. Instead of "JAIL" the players need to regenerate their voting power.

You can download it from Github following this link:

https://github.com/joticajulian/steemitnopoly

Account cards

Each color card represents an account. I have selected a bunch of users that have some influence in the blockchain. In the original monopoly we build houses and hotels to receive more incomes, but in this game, we improve our posts in order to have more followers (500, 1000, 10000, and 20000). If we have 20k followers we can choose to be witnesses to improve the incomes.

Bot cards

The bots cards are like the trains in the original monopoly, they are special accounts in the middle of each line. They represent the bots that receive incomes for promoting posts.

Front-end cards

The blockchain is a distributed ledger, there is no central site. But steemit.com and busy.org are the two principal windows that we use to access the blockchain. These are the cards of water and light of the original monopoly.

Chance and community chest

These are surprise cards that players receive. "Chance" normally represent a movement on the board, and "Community Chest" does not. Both can be for incomes (upvotes), or expenses (flags).

Read the cards, it's really fun!! You will see upvotes, flags, delegations, and more from a wide variety of users.

Chance

Community chest

What are you waiting for? Download it, roll the dice and play!

The name doesn't exactly roll off the tongue. How about calling it Steemopoly instead?

jga (65) · 7 years ago (edited)

I've already changed it to Steemopoly, it sounds better. Thanks again for the suggestion.

Steemopoly, and it has my name on it? - So cool! - here is a little gift from me and @booster, enjoy.

Would not it be nice to have an illustrative example of how to play ? Because my son loves monopoly, and I would allow him to play on behalf of my account, but since this involves real Steem, it would be nice to see an example before trying out ?

I downloaded it, but don't understand how to play it ?

jga (65) · 7 years ago

Thanks for your comment. The idea is to use the same rules of the original monopoly.
But instead of properties you have users. The square of "regenerating power" and "without voting power" have the same functions of "JAIL" and "GO TO JAIL" respectively. If you have all users of the same color you can "improve your posts" for more followers.

If you think that we should go deeper into a particular rule or if it is ambiguous, tell me to maybe create a post clarifying this topic :)

sanjeevm (63) · 7 years ago

But I don't understand how do we play and how it interacts /integrated with Steem blockchain. May be a tutorial on how to play after downloading would help.

jga (65) · 7 years ago

It is not for playing online or in your computer. The idea is to print the board and the cards and play with real dice 😃🎲

$0.00

imp.unity (57) · 7 years ago

That was quite a spectacular misunderstanding!

@Steempoker or some intrepid devs should get on making an actual block-chain integrated monopoly game with real Steem xD

Very beautiful design @jga, really nice work! So creative :)))

craigahamilton (58) · 7 years ago

@jga I would suggest for the railroads and utilities, be that of the other media networks on the Steemit blockchain, then illustrate on the board their literal bind in code across the map.

User accounts as properties...maybe a few notable whale accounts, perhaps as with each side with utilities/railroad could feature hashtags as locations, houses and hotels would be like upvoted posts.

Would make a cool Steemit keepsake.

Time is Art. In Life, all we have is Time. Why not make Art all the Time?

theuxyeti (64) · 7 years ago

I like this but why are @curie and @utopian-ui the boardwalk and park place? Are those two accounts the best resource for your posts???

jga (65) · 7 years ago (edited)

Hi @theuxyeti, thanks for your important question.

I selected @utopian-io because is the account with the largest delegation in steemit (look this report), 3.8 million steem power. There are some acounts with more SP, but this is the largest in delegation, meaning that this project is really interesting.

@curie is the largest witness without counting the witnesses of 1 person, that is, the largest organization being a witness (this is the list of witnesses, position 6 right now). Again, if the people have voted it, means that the project is really interesting and very important for the community. And I must emphasize its scheme of work based on meritocracy.

I must also admit that this selection is perhaps influenced by the fact that I as a programmer have been more involved with @utopian-io, and that on one occasion I received a very important vote from @curie when I had only 2 days in steemit.

I would like to know your opinion, what accounts would you choose for these positions?

theuxyeti (64) · 7 years ago

What programming do you know? Can you do react? In addition how do you get @curie attention to upvote your posts? What’s the process.

$0.00

jga (65) · 7 years ago

I work in javascript, android, c++, solidity, python, and others. I'm learning react.

Regarding @curie, there is no process (no tags, no follow, no upvotes, no transfers, no promotion). Only quality content. Details here.

$0.00

noisy (67) · 7 years ago

Maybe it would be better, to put popular tags onto fields not people. Why? because with tags would could more easily "connect with".

I mean, for example, everyone can post under tag #funny, but only @ned can be @ned.

beanz (68) · 7 years ago

Monopoly is about who owns the most and who you have to pay to get by

$0.00

jga (65) · 7 years ago (edited)

But what about the bots? they are special cards in the middle of each line.
Think about the "followers", the tags have no followers.
Or for instance, the flags and upvotes in the "chance" and "community chest"... a card saying "you got a flag form @berniesanders" has a lot more adrenaline 😃.

What do you think?

Thanks for your comment and important upvote!

oopgamesandhobby (42) · 7 years ago

OK, now i seen it all, and i am a board game store owner. How many ways can they reissue this game? Try the first monoploy rip off called "anti-monopoly. it's from the 70's but it puts a spin on a game you played hundreds of times. Its more then just renaming the spaces and making new player pieces, in anti-monoploy you need to pick a side, capitalist or monopolist, and they play slightly different. Check it out.

mmm interesting. I will check it! Thanks

Although I have no idea how to make figures for some of those like, life or esteem… Any ideas??
