I was thinking about the chances of Hasbro allowing us to use their
trademark artwork and have considered uding a different, modern, version
of the game called Triopoly. This game is a much better game in my
opinion. I was reluctant to suggest (seriously) doing it instead
because it is not nationally known and the unfamiliarity might possibly
hinder its acceptance and might make the production of the 3d props more
difficult.

However, it is not impossible. It can be done, but it would require me
to publish the rule book on a web page and scan the game pieces so
someone can get a picture of what they looks like.
I will look at the board and see how much work it will take and see what
I can do. Since it has three levels, it will take a bit more time than
preparing a Monopoly game.

With this game, we will not have to worry about a well established multi
million dollar company frowning on our efforts. It is a local game,
but with a professional look and feel about it.

I looked in the instruction booklet and found the name of the company that
makes it. Reveal Entertainment, Inc. I will try to find their page
on the net and write them an email. Hopefully, they will be more willing
to let us use the trademarks.
