Do Not Pass Go. Do Not Collect $200.

August 16, 2011

Whoever made up the saying, cheaters never prosper," obviously never played Monopoly. Our family was playing the game and as a competitive ten-year-old, I wanted to win at all cost. The game box was dilapidated and held together with tape. The game rules were long lost, and so I spouted off some non-existent rule I made up which let me win the game.

Good thing for me we didn’t have the MCPL website to look up the rules for Monopoly; I would have been exposed as the fraud that I was.

If you have games that are missing the rules, or if you want to know the rules for any game, please check out our fabulous MCPL database Everyrule. You’ll find rules from sports to game shows. It spans various categories of games such as computer, casino, kids, board, and cards. The sports links often take you to the rules portion of the official site, such as the NFL’s Digest of Rules.

Whether you’re playing Red Rover, Texas Hold “Em, or Lacrosse no one will be able to trick you because you will know the rules!
