An innovative Redditor, Suicidal-duck, recently published a thread outlining a set of rules to play Monopoly, but with Bitcoin.
The game follows the classic Monopoly structure, but with a few twists that make it great for teaching someone how to use Bitcoin.

Bitcoin Monopoly: Where The Bank Goes Broke
Monopoly is a dark board game. The rules are ruthless, as the point of the game is to destroy your rivals by bankrupting them. One of the official rules of traditional Monopoly is that “the Bank never goes broke.” In fact, if the Bank runs out of money, it can issue as much as needed. Kind of like the real-world central bankers of today.
Playing is Learning
As any developer and engineer would say, the best way to learn about new technology is by playing with it. The Satoshi Monopoly version teaches players to interact with a crypto wallet. This is a great way to introduce children and elders to the concept of Bitcoin. Also, players use the Lightning Network, where each wallet is typically a node, another great opportunity to learn about how this novel payment system works. As Redditor joeknowswhoiam points out in the same thread,Your wallet (typically an LN node) knows about many nodes on the LN and will find a path for your payment that is the most efficient/cheap/short and inform you of the fees for the best route(s).He adds,
If you have direct channels between the Monopoly players it would be 0 fees, as you won’t need other nodes to route the payments for you.
Gaming Innovation
If this wasn’t enough, another Redditor promptly proposed a different Monopoly-style game.
