+# Monopoly Ledger
+
+A Javascript tool to support more diverse rules for Monopoly not easy to implement with cash.
+
+This project is in keeping with the original purpose of Monopoly's predecessor, The Landlord's Game, which was to demonstrate the effects of different economic rules.
+
+Created with the assistance of ChatGPT based on an original Python prototype.
+
+## Suggested rules
+
+The following are example rule changes that can be tried up against the standard Parker Brothers rules.
+
+### Goals
+
+* All players win when each player builds a hotel
+
+### Transactions
+
+* Rents are paid to pot
+* Rents are paid to all other players
+* Pot distributed to a player who rolls doubles
+* Land tax paid to all other players on passing go (percentage of total property values)
+* Ban gifts and trades
+
+## Citations
+
+* [Coopoly](https://store.tesacollective.com/products/co-opoly-the-game-of-co-operatives) - "All players are on the same team and work together to start a cooperative business or organization and compete against the Point Bank"
+* [The Landlord's Game](https://landlordsgame.info/games/lg-1906/lg-1906_egc-rules.html) - The original version of Monopoly intended to teach Georgist idea, with several rule variants
+
+## To do
+
+* Do a game jam on alternative Monopoly rules, designing and testing them.
