Write down a board game and how it relates to history along with a breif description. It may be a spin off of an actual board game. NO TIME IN HISTORY IS TOO OFFENSIVE. :)

I'll Start

Game: Great Depression Monopoly
History: Great depression
Description: Play your favorite game all over again in the great depression. Purchase new exciting properties such as a cardboard box or a can while playing as an apple core or even a shoe!

NOW GO!!!

Edit: Noxid says that some times are too offensive.

*disclaimer: some periods in history may be too offensive

Victorian Operation
Time period: Victorian era
Description: Is it water on the knee? Then cut it off! Remove the limbs, vesigial organs and all four humours until the patient gets better or dies! If it starts making noise, just give it some liquor!

Post-Scarcity Monopoly

Take cards at will from an infinitely-sized stack of property titles. Then, take one of an infinite number of little plastic houses and put up to ten of them on each of these cards.

Internet-age trivial pursuit: Instead of answers, the back of each card contains a list of Wikipedia URLs.

Spanish Inquisition hangman

You can only give one answer (the wrong one), and your hangman takes about an hour to die.

Medieval Pursuit
Instead of "pie" chips, you get swords.
You Play as a knight, a wizard, a cleric, a (HIPPY) Ranger, a queen or a king.

Modern Scrabble

Takes out almost all of the proper spelling and replaces it with things like:
ch41r or p14n0. And you get extra points for spelling it with the least amount of words. :awesomeface:

If you do pretty much anything, you go to jail for an undefined period of time.
