The object of the game is actually very simple. As you go around the board by rolling the dice, you buy property in an attempt to charge people rent every time they land on your property. The game is over when everyone has run out of money and can no longer pay the owner of the various properties.

Then, once the entire lot is purchased you may only build one house on each lot at a time. In order to build hotels on each lot you need to have four houses accumulated first. Because of this, it takes a very long time to reach the point where you are receiving a substantial rent for your property when somebody lands on it.
