Apocalyptic Board Games

Environmentally Depressing 'X Monopoly' Has Doomsday Countdown

‘X Monopoly’ is meant to teach lessons on how to deal with capitalistic life when you have to address natural disasters, age and environmental obligations. All before you pass go and collect $200.

‘X Monopoly’ was designed to help people see the difficulty, and necessity, of balancing the environment and money. A bit morbid for my taste--one of the pieces in ‘X Monopoly’ is a dying person. I think I’ll stick with the top hat.
