My little floof decided the red chair is his personal throne

Before Monopoly made millions, Elizabeth Magie created its foundation.

In 1903, she designed The Landlord’s Game to teach how monopolies exploit others—not to make money. It even had two modes: one fair, one monopolistic.

Years later, Charles Darrow adapted a version, sold it to Parker Brothers, and became a millionaire.

Magie? She was paid just $500—with no royalties—and largely forgotten.

A game meant to warn about monopolies became one of the most profitable ever.
