Oh, I like this a lot!

We recently picked up Monopoly with a new generation of players, and the flaws of the design were now apparent to adults. I think this could be a significant improvement.

That almost makes me want to play a game of Monopoly.

Uh, isn't that the official rules? If a player lands on an unowned property, it goes to auction[0] EDIT: if the player doesn't buy it for the price printed on the board.
