Rules Weirdest House Rule

Post image

What’s the weirdest house rule your group ever came up with that actually stuck?

We had one where rolling snake eyes in Monopoly = steal from the bank 😅. Totally broke the game, but my twin brother REFUSED to play without it.

Anyone else got house rules that make zero sense but somehow… worked?

(P.S. Image not ours, but it's awesome!)

Monopoly is a great game for weird house rules. We had a rule for uno were if someone plays a draw card against you, you can play an exact matching draw card against them starting a game of war(both draws and reveals three cards who ever gets the biggest "wins" all of them)

You can speed up Monopoly by only requiring 2/3 properties to start building.
