🛣️ GENIUS STRATEGY: Interior Property + Road Building
💡 The Strategic Breakthrough
Problem: You buy a cheap interior tile (100🪙) and build a house (50🪙), but no one can land on it to pay rent because there's no road access!
Solution: Build connecting roads from the main cross to your property! Now other players can reach it and pay rent!
📊 Example Investment
- • Interior tile (30,30): 100🪙
- • House on tile: 50🪙
- • 10 connecting roads: 300🪙
- Total Investment: 450🪙
💰 Revenue Streams
- • House rent when players land: 5-15🪙
- • Toll from each road (per passage): 2-5🪙
- • Daily passive income: 5🪙/day
- Multiple income sources!
⚡ Why This Strategy Works
Interior tiles cost 100🪙 vs 500🪙 for center tiles
