Finans

An interesting variant on the monopoly theme which introduces stocks and bonds on top of the basic well-known monopoly theme. There are four major differences to monopoly: 1) The Bank The Bank area (twelve special squares with different possibilities) is now the most crucial place in the game where you buy properties and stocks and get paid dividend of your stocks. Properties are now only bought in the bank and not on landing on the square. 2) Stocks Stocks can be bought in one of the 7 sets of properties and gives you money by dividend paid from the bank and dividend paid from the owner of properties. 3) Car In Finans you have the opportunity to buy (and later sell if you are short on cash) a car which gives you two dices to roll instead of just one. Having a car makes jumps over the expensive properties more easy. You still only use one die inside the Bank. 4) Bonds Bonds can be bought in the Bank by all players if a player land on one of the two bond squares. Each bond has a number from 2 to 12 and pays out if the number is rolled using two dices. The 1998-variant from Brio is a revised version of "Finans" by Anders Jeppson and Per Leveaux originally designed by "Martin Marte". "Finans" means "Finance" but is different from Parker Brothers version from 1933. So far I have only seen this game sold in Scandinavia (Denmark, Sweden, Finland & Norway).
