Can you imagine sitting down with family and friends on Christmas day to play this on your wii, and then you take 30 minutes abusing the AI into the ground on your first turn.
I actually did that years back, when I discovered the exploit myself. I was playing with my sister and brother in law. Considering that they almost divorced over a Monopoly rules argument, it was perhaps not the smartest move to also ruin the console version for them.
Unironically; I had a game of monopoly last just over a month. About 5 hours a week between 5 of us. We lost players 4 and 5 about 2 weeks in; but the rest of us were both too stubborn to stop, and all so horrifically unlucky that we'd not end up winning either. The game ended due to, no shit; the board catching on fire.

Let's take a moment to appreciate that this man who is so brilliant at exploiting the system is using his skills to entertain us instead of becoming a politician.
My life has changed completely since Spiff entered my life. I now drink 12 Cups of Yorkshire Tea a day, got a promotion, and can feel a top hat growing out of the top of my skull.
So let me get this straight. This exploit has existed in all digital versions of Monopoly for over 20 years and nobody, and I mean NOBODY has fixed it? That doesn't seem right.
Probably costs a shitton to get the license to make a monopoly game in the first place so whoever's making it simply doesn't have enough money left to pay for proper testing if they want to turn a profit anytime soon.
@@johnmartinez7440 Except it's not necessarily fun? Or at least, can negatively effect the fun people have? Like Spiff said in the beginning, any game with a couple bots could do this. I wonder how many games have been played that have been effectively ruined by one of the players exploiting the hell out of it, or just simply how much the average game has been effected due to this bug. I can imagine how someone who played a full game with the hardest bots and completely kicking their butts might feel once they learn that the bots have been unintentionally giving them more favorable deals than they should with any mortgaged property. Especially if it's learned particularly after-the-fact and they can't quite remember if they sold mortgaged properties, or how many they have. It just kinda takes away the feeling of achievement that one could have... as opposed to just being sent flying in a situation where you're already dead anyways.
My favorite monopoly story is that i obtain all of the smaller bills in paper monopoly and force all the other players to not have the ability to give each other change. Without change they pay more for each rent they land on. This causes wealth to move faster and it lets me drain it from players with only larger bills
Meanwhile, old Monopoly game's AI on easy: "We will never trade with you, we will scam you out of all of your properties, and we will bankrupt you in five turns."
Spiff: 30k likes will never happen. UA-cam: recommends it to 100k people and half of them like it Spiff: youtube is a perfectly balanced game with no exploits what so ever.
you forgot that you have nearly 700k subbers and for the chance of you answer their question only 30k would have to hit the like button. meaning that less than 5% of your followers, mind you im just saying followers, thats not including randoms that are also going to see and hit like just to see if you would follow threw, would have to hit that. im sorry to say you set the bar a bit too low. now if you said more around 100k likes, seeing how big you are, atm, i could see it not happening. now that it did happen and we did hit the amount and you said you would answer all are questions, How much Yorkshire Gold Tea do you drink in a day?

my favourite exploit is to make sure the AI all have under like $30 left and buying the last house.

What this ultimately meant is that I could continue to collect rent on my properties, but I would have to pay little/no rent to the AI. >:) Monopoly games seem to have a history of terrible AI trade mechanics
Yeah even the main monopoly game on the App Store rn has AI on hard that’ll trade you any property if you offer slightly over twice it’s purchase price, unless they have two of them, but sometimes even then So, when first going around the board at the start, you can buy properties they get from them right away and thus get a leg up

Early in the video you mentioned Monopoly normally being a long game - in a university writing class, my class read an essay from the New Yorker by John McPhee called “The Search for Marvin Gardens. The author mentions that a game can be completed by the rules in under 15 minutes. I went home and tried it, and found it quite realistic to do so, finishing a game with my brother-in-law in almost exactly 15 minutes. It turns out that the main problem with Monopoly is that people don’t follow the rules, and also introduce their own house rules that extend the play time. Im with the common consensus that as normally played, Monopoly can be rough, but playing it by the rules is actually rather fun.
I find it hard to believe you can do it that quickly. There are definitely house rules that make the games longer, but the official rules aren't quick. The game becomes quick if you have bad players, but it can be extended through basic strategy and luck (you buy property and go to jail = free rent for 3 turns) by a large amount.
@@Wyzai That game did really finish quickly. There are a few official rules that many players aren’t aware of because house rules typically ignore them. For example, as shown in the exploit, if a property isn’t purchased by the first player who lands on it, it is immediately auctioned. This rule alone speeds things up a great deal. It gets properties into the hands of players very quickly, even if they can’t afford the normal prices. After just a couple rounds of the board, you are almost always landing on an owned property, and money moves quickly towards the majority owners. I don’t think every game would be that quick, and multiple players would be slower than just 2, but I think 15-30 minutes is reasonable for most games if the rules are diligently followed. Unfortunately I can’t find many more people to play with because house rules have ruined it for a lot of people.
@@underthelidar most people don’t play with rules such as that ( or at least personally) because If you’re playing with people who, ( guess you can this is also a personal opinion) are actually good at the game, your not getting any property that goes to auction for less then the listed price. Only time people will let you get it for cheap are when they are bad players like the previous commenter stated. That’s the only way I see a game played by official rules will ever be quick. I guarantee that if you play with experienced players, official rules or not, it’s not going to be a short game
It's much faster to play monopoly when you only have two players. What slows games down is when no player gets three of a colour because there's so many players and no-one wants to trade with each other.
@@andrewlund-nielsen4234 The auction rule isn't intended to get the property to other players for cheap. It's designed to prevent the players from continuously passing "lesser" properties in pursuit of more expensive properties. It forces the early stage of the game (actually getting all the properties bought out) to go quickly, which then gets money moving between players more quickly. The auction rule coupled with trading can get houses and hotels down faster, which gets the final stage of the game to go quicker too. Obviously that doesn't guarantee a 15 minute game, but it should prevent the tedious and boring aspect of this game. Official rules are 100% the way to go.
How this would go in a game of Monopoly irl: Me: *buys property worth $100 for $200* *10 seconds after I mortgage the property* Do you want to buy this property? Other player: No.
No no, they'd be happy to buy it off you. But they would never sell it back. Once you own a piece of property in Monopoly, you should basically never let go of it, unless it's part of a trade that gives you a full set or something.
Almost 2 years since you made this film, and not only did they destroy the like button but they obliterate you’re 36,000 hit by the time I’m viewing this is at over 150k hits. This is why I love your dark humor.
Its the best looking, I can tell there was some passion involved with designing the living board. My family doesn't have a monopoly board so we used this as a substitute and for that its really good

so, uh. i've decided it's not gonna BE your turn. ever. i'm just gonna keep having MY turn until you give up. even if it means we have to stand here until the end of time.
I remember playing a game with a couple people once. I kept landing on their properties and didn't want to pay, so I told one of them that if they try to collect I would just give all my properties to the other player. That would mean that one player would have so many properties that they'd surely win the game. They didn't want to do that so I negotiated with them. I kept doing stuff like this til I won. They never wanted to play with me again. ( : Who needs friends when you can win at Monopoly?
Yes indeed, his breathy yet hard consistency of sound that his vocal chords produce are indeed something of a wonder to listen too. I imagine the sounds of 109 kettles boiling would be a very similar sound. It is a truly inspiring sound that brings joy yet a slight sense unease which spikes adrenaline into any mere mortals heart. The true spectrum of the sound that he produces is a natural wonder that scientists have had many attempts to grasp it is a wonder that even trumps that of the pyramids. Some say the only true way to grasp his soumd is to buy yorkshire tea gold, yet many who have tried have not been powerful enough to grasp such theroys and simply vanished. It is truly a wonder my friend and it must be appreciated.
Having to use a button to increment the value by 1 unit instead of using bills, because the player base can't do math, makes this even more believable as fully intended.
Unfortunately fucking up that game has huge financial and legal consequences. Getting Spiffco big enough to go public is the best exploit of stock exchange he can do realistically.
what's even better is if everyone is broke and you buy the last house, you can get it at a discount, then proceed to sell it at full price, and just repeat this process
I swear Spiff actually runs all his adsense through a shell company to get more money. So Spiff, would you be interested in doing a 'No Exploits' video for Star Wars Empire At War, if it's possible? It may not be as old as some games you exploit, but surely there are exploits that are perfectly balanced? Love the videos, god bless the Queen.
Forces of corruption play as the Zann consortium corrupt Kashyyyk with enslavement. Then take the planet and now you can build wookie war parties they are quite strong now we going to take kamino. Take kamino and then notice all infantry can be built for 1 credit but build 15% slower well now we're going to build nothing but barracks since building more of the same building speeds it up. 100 credits now gives you 100 wookie war parties and all you need to care about is your space force now you conquer the galaxy with enslaved cloned wookies this also works for the empire and rebellion or the consortium with anything classified as a infantry unit
Funny this exploit existed 20 years ago in all computer versions of monopoly, you'd think they would have fixed it in some version.
Except no one actually plays this game XD

Thanks, you just saved me 27 minutes of watching this bullshit
Seriously though, 15 minutes to fucking say that.
You don't have to play this game to get rid of your friends, just encouraging them to use uplay should do the trick.
Thank god ubisoft allows steam to work alongside uplay. At one time, i didn't like uplay, but it isn't so bad in comparison anymore.

Whats funny is, I remember when people HATED steam, back when they forced players to use it starting on counter strike 1.6. Ah, back when steam was military green and regularly went down and didn't let you play :)
Early in the video you mentioned Monopoly normally being a long game - in a university writing class, my class read an essay from the New Yorker by John McPhee called “The Search for Marvin Gardens. The author mentions that a game can be completed by the rules in under 15 minutes. I went home and tried it, and found it quite realistic to do so, finishing a game with my brother-in-law in almost exactly 15 minutes. It turns out that the main problem with Monopoly is that people don’t follow the rules, and also introduce their own house rules that extend the play time. Im with the common consensus that as normally played, Monopoly can be rough, but playing it by the rules is actually rather fun.
I find it hard to believe you can do it that quickly. There are definitely house rules that make the games longer, but the official rules aren't quick. The game becomes quick if you have bad players, but it can be extended through basic strategy and luck (you buy property and go to jail = free rent for 3 turns) by a large amount.
@@Wyzai That game did really finish quickly. There are a few official rules that many players aren’t aware of because house rules typically ignore them. For example, as shown in the exploit, if a property isn’t purchased by the first player who lands on it, it is immediately auctioned. This rule alone speeds things up a great deal. It gets properties into the hands of players very quickly, even if they can’t afford the normal prices. After just a couple rounds of the board, you are almost always landing on an owned property, and money moves quickly towards the majority owners. I don’t think every game would be that quick, and multiple players would be slower than just 2, but I think 15-30 minutes is reasonable for most games if the rules are diligently followed. Unfortunately I can’t find many more people to play with because house rules have ruined it for a lot of people.
@@underthelidar most people don’t play with rules such as that ( or at least personally) because If you’re playing with people who, ( guess you can this is also a personal opinion) are actually good at the game, your not getting any property that goes to auction for less then the listed price. Only time people will let you get it for cheap are when they are bad players like the previous commenter stated. That’s the only way I see a game played by official rules will ever be quick. I guarantee that if you play with experienced players, official rules or not, it’s not going to be a short game
It's much faster to play monopoly when you only have two players.
What slows games down is when no player gets three of a colour because there's so many players and no-one wants to trade with each other.
@@andrewlund-nielsen4234 The auction rule isn't intended to get the property to other players for cheap. It's designed to prevent the players from continuously passing "lesser" properties in pursuit of more expensive properties. It forces the early stage of the game (actually getting all the properties bought out) to go quickly, which then gets money moving between players more quickly.
The auction rule coupled with trading can get houses and hotels down faster, which gets the final stage of the game to go quicker too. Obviously that doesn't guarantee a 15 minute game, but it should prevent the tedious and boring aspect of this game.
Official rules are 100% the way to go.
I’d love to see Spiff convince rt, Kevin and kiwo to play this with him and then do the exploit

How this would go in a game of Monopoly irl:
Me: *buys property worth $100 for $200*
*10 seconds after I mortgage the property*
Do you want to buy this property?
Other player: No.
No no, they'd be happy to buy it off you. But they would never sell it back. Once you own a piece of property in Monopoly, you should basically never let go of it, unless it's part of a trade that gives you a full set or something.
Here’s a question:
I know tea reigns supreme and coffee is blasphemy, but where is hot chocolate on that spectrum

So I can confirm this exploit does not work in the board game version of the game as tea is turned into a high velocity projectile.

As flawed as this game is, it's easily the best Monopoly video game ever.
Its the best looking, I can tell there was some passion involved with designing the living board. My family doesn't have a monopoly board so we used this as a substitute and for that its really good
Monopoly Party on PS2 is the best.
Monopoly on Windows 95 is the best. This isn't a debate.

Monopoly Streets for the Wii is pretty fun…
Actually, no, just no, there are probably about 10 monopoly games better than this one, you just aren't a big enough monopoly fan to know about them

Now its 10k
I remember playing a game with a couple people once. I kept landing on their properties and didn't want to pay, so I told one of them that if they try to collect I would just give all my properties to the other player. That would mean that one player would have so many properties that they'd surely win the game. They didn't want to do that so I negotiated with them. I kept doing stuff like this til I won. They never wanted to play with me again. ( : Who needs friends when you can win at Monopoly?

Yes indeed, his breathy yet hard consistency of sound that his vocal chords produce are indeed something of a wonder to listen too. I imagine the sounds of 109 kettles boiling would be a very similar sound. It is a truly inspiring sound that brings joy yet a slight sense unease which spikes adrenaline into any mere mortals heart. The true spectrum of the sound that he produces is a natural wonder that scientists have had many attempts to grasp it is a wonder that even trumps that of the pyramids. Some say the only true way to grasp his soumd is to buy yorkshire tea gold, yet many who have tried have not been powerful enough to grasp such theroys and simply vanished. It is truly a wonder my friend and it must be appreciated.
Having to use a button to increment the value by 1 unit instead of using bills, because the player base can't do math, makes this even more believable as fully intended.

So Spiff, would you be interested in doing a 'No Exploits' video for Star Wars Empire At War, if it's possible? It may not be as old as some games you exploit, but surely there are exploits that are perfectly balanced?
Love the videos, god bless the Queen.
Forces of corruption play as the Zann consortium corrupt Kashyyyk with enslavement. Then take the planet and now you can build wookie war parties they are quite strong now we going to take kamino. Take kamino and then notice all infantry can be built for 1 credit but build 15% slower well now we're going to build nothing but barracks since building more of the same building speeds it up. 100 credits now gives you 100 wookie war parties and all you need to care about is your space force now you conquer the galaxy with enslaved cloned wookies this also works for the empire and rebellion or the consortium with anything classified as a infantry unit
