THE SHORT GAME At the start of a short game, the Bank deals two properties at random to each player. The players must immediately pay the Bank the price of each property. Play then continues as in a normal game. In a short game, it is necessary to have only three houses (instead of four) on each property of a complete color-group before the player may buy a hotel. Rent for a hotel remains the same as in the normal game. The turn-in value of a hotel is still one-half the purchase price, which in this game is one house less than in the normal game. CUSTOM RULES OPTIONS Houses per Hotel ­ Select the number of houses to be exchanged for one hotel. Valid numbers are either 4 or 5. 14 15 As in the normal game, the first player to go bankrupt retires from play. However, when the second bankruptcy occurs, the game ends. Play immediately ceases, with the bankrupt player turning over to their creditor all that they have of value, including houses and hotels and any other properties. This happens when the creditor is a rival player or the Bank. Each remaining player then values their own assets: (1) cash on hand; (2) property, utilities and railroads owned at the price displayed on the board; (3) any mortgaged property owned at the price displayed on the Title Deed; (4) houses, valued at purchase price; and (5) hotels, valued at purchase price including the value of the three houses turned in.
