Seattle in a box (1997)

Another in Late for the Sky Production Company's Monopoly inspired games. In place of Atlantic City street names, this game's properties are familiar places in and around Seattle, from Skid Road (Seattle was in fact the home of the original Skid Road) and Fremont Troll (a bizarre and popular local sculpture) to Mt. Rainier and Elliott Bay.

In place of Electric Company and Water Works, Seattle in a box has Seattle's Best Coffee and Ferry Boats.

Instead railroads, we have four Seattle neighborhoods.

While hell in early 20th century Atlantic City may have been jail, in modern Seattle it is a traffic jam.

The metal tokens are the Space Needle, a salmon, an apple, an umbrella, a crab, and a slug.

The Monopoly board begins with GO. Seattle in a box begins with RAIN.

And in a nod to a popular Monopoly house rule, instead of Free Parking, this game has Puget Sound where all the game's fines are collected and given to the player landing there.

Seattle in a box is amusing for Seattleites and visitors to the Emerald City, and it is very familiar to anyone who has played the original Monopoly.
