Co-opoly 2011

In Co-opoly: The Game of Cooperatives , players must collaborate to found and run a democratic business. In order to survive as individuals and to strive for the success of their co-op, players make tough choices regarding big and small challenges while putting their teamwork abilities to the test.

Challenges consist of mini games of charades, guess the drawing or "unspoken", in which the active player has to get the other players to guess the word on the card without saying the word or related words. Completing challenges earns points for your co-op. As the co-op marker moves around the board world cards may have to be drawn that can take points from the individual players, from the co-op pool of points or can be beneficial by giving bonus challenges or points. The players win when they achieve the goal of starting up a second co-op.

This is an exciting game of skill and solidarity, where everyone wins – or everybody loses. Will the Point Bank continue to dominate the players’ lives, or will they break free and take control by jump-starting the movement for a truly democratic and cooperative economy in their community?

By playing Co-opoly, players discover the unique benefits, challenges, and operations of the cooperative world – as well as the skills needed to participate in a co-op! Co-opoly is for teens and adults.
