Surveillance Monopoly

Big Data Domination!

Welcome to Surveillance Monopoly: Big Data Domination! Here, you’re not just playing for property or cash—you’re fighting for data supremacy, control over the digital economy, and, ultimately, influence over society itself. The board is filled with opportunities to acquire personal data, control digital ecosystems, and influence behaviors. Your goal is to become the ultimate overlord of personal information, subtly controlling public opinion, behavior, and consumption while keeping competitors at bay.
