The Monopoly board game is getting a refresh!

Hasbro announced that MONOPOLY is getting a, quote, “refresh.” They’ll be changing all 16 Community Chest cards for the first time in 85 years to try to bring them more in line with modern life.

Quote, “Covering topics like beauty contests, holiday funds, and life insurance, there is no denying the Monopoly game’s Community Chest cards are long overdue for a refresh.”

You can vote on new cards on their website. Some possibilities are, “You help build a new school playground then you get to test the slide, collect $100” and “Blasting music late at night? Your neighbors do not approve. Go directly to jail.”

The new cards should be an official part of the game by the end of the year.
