Based boardgames? - eviltoast

I know The Landlord’s Game/Monopoly and Class Struggle, are there any others?

I looked it up on reddit, and there were some interesting games, but the usual cringe.

    Looking at my board game shelf right now, a few that have some class implications:

    • Twilight struggle - Play through the cold war. Incredibly fun but complicated.
    • Carcassone - a battle between feudal lords trying to capture as much of the commons as possible.
    • Jaipur - Ruthless trading about buying as cheaply as possible, and selling for as much as possible.
    • Ticket to ride - Railroad monopoly titans fighting over limited terrain.
    • Risk - Napoleonic warfare, but IMO the capturing of countries and continents gaining you more soldiers each round, implies industrialization and colonialism. Axis and allies kinda the same deal.
    • Pass the pigs - Do I need to elaborate on this one.
