Everything wrong with Game of Thrones Monopoly:

1. There’s free parking — probably because there are no cars.
2. In lieu of murder and / or mutilation, a grump, blue uniform-clad cop will put you in jail.
3. No nudity, a Game of Thrones staple.
4. The dragon egg token lands on House Targaryen but never turns into a dragon.
5. … on a related note, the White Walker token roams free without anyone batting an eye and without first buying the Wall.
6. … also, a direwolf can own property. Maybe that’s not a problem so much as a potential spoiler.
7. Winterfell is the third most expensive property in the game (300) behind only Braavos (350) and King’s Landing (400). Have you seen Winterfell lately?
8. Every player has a stipend. Survive long enough, and you’ll definitely get paid fairly.
9. Game of Thrones Monopoly has a single, unified currency from the Iron Bank of Braavos.
10. There is no mechanism for winning through violence.

Thus, we already know the winner of Game of Thrones Monopoly: capitalism. C.R.E.A.S.K. — Cash Rules Everything Around (the) Seven Kingdoms. There’s no point to play anymore. Let us know if Game of Thrones Risk ever becomes a thing.
