The Bust~the~Trust! Game
The basic idea of the game is to end the monopolistic practices of the 3-company-combinations of the game board. The players are Trust-Busting lawyers going about the board slapping lawsuits on the monopolies. The winning trust buster is the one who ends with the largest number of social-credit points when one of the players runs out of money.
There are 3 kinds of company combinations on the board: Oligopolies; Trusts and Monopolies; marked by one; two and three accusation circles respectively. Accusing is done by placing a small; round chip of the same color as your token on such a circle. When all accusation circles of a combination are covered; the monopolistic practices of that combination have been ended. An accusation chip can be bought from the Budget-Commissioner; when lending money; he provides a Social-Credit card as an IOU.
Variant rules are supplied for a Low-Budget Game and a Trading Game.
Anspach fought --and won-- a vicious court battle against Hasbro (and others) over this game.
