The World's Largest Monopoly Game!

Roll the dice and play on Macomb’s Historic Courthouse Square! Macombopoly is the world’s largest Monopoly-styled board of its kind, paying homage to both the classic board game and its inspiration – The Landlord’s Game, invented by Macomb resident Elizabeth “Lizzie” Magie-Phillips.

The game is played through the use of a state-of-the-art app powered by eATLAS! as the players actually circle Macomb’s historic Downtown Courthouse Square. The Square actually looks remarkably similar the the revolutionary game board that Lizzie Magie design in 1904. In fact, the corner in which Lizzie placed the famous Jail square on her game board matches up with the same downtown corner in which the Macomb Jail once stood.

This permanent attraction, which is available to the public free of charge 365 days a year 24/7, also features larger-than-life game pieces around the Courthouse lawn – including giant spinning dice, a recreation of Abraham Lincoln‘s famous stovepipe hat, and a huge Monopoly/Landlord’s game hybrid split board – plus a life-size sculpture of Lizzie, all masterfully sculpted in the style of classic Monopoly game tokens by Gabe Stevens of MasterPiece Customs.
