Monopoly Party - Platform: Gamecube

Defeating the CPU
-----------------
Use the following trick to defeat the CPU with two to four 
players under the hard difficulty setting. Go to "Custom 
Rules" and set the houses to 88 and apartments to 22. 
Turn the jackpot on and set the Landing On Go bonus to 
$400.00. Pick Land On Free Parking and set the jackpot to 
$750.00. 
Use the classic view, as it is easier to see before choosing 
whichever board you desire. When you start the game, buy only 
the properties you can get three of and avoid the railroads 
and utilities. Do not bid top high on the properties that you 
cannot get much money for. Never bid more money than you have, 
as you do not want to mortgage properties. 
Try to get a set, even if it means trading with the CPU or 
offering them money. Sometimes you will have to offer them both. 
Once you get a set of two or three, put houses on the cheapest 
house first, unless you have Boardwalk and Park Place, so you 
can save money and eventually put up hotels on all your 
properties. If you have many houses or hotels and get in jail, 
try to stay in there as long as you can and collect your money. 
You can also stay in jail if the CPU has many houses or hotels 
to remain on the safe side. Try to have at least $100 to $200 or 
more to stay safe. Even if you have to wait to pass Go or land on 
Free Parking, once you start getting sets and hotels on those 
properties, try to get sets that are next to each other, or on 
an entire side of the board.
