El Chino
An adult Spanish board game from the early 1980s set in Barcelona's Barrio Chino, a district associated with prostitution and drug activity. Using mechanics similar to Monopoly, players take the roles of prostitutes, thieves, pimps, or transvestites and move around the board to earn money by stealing, selling drugs, or having sex with clients. Players agree on a time limit at the start, and the player with the most money when time runs out wins. Certain spaces, including a clinic for venereal diseases, affect play.
