Pimp City

For the average college student, the scary, sexy world of pimps
and prostitutes is far away (or at least across town over by USC).
Likewise, board games are a pastime from childhood and family
vacations.
But now, “Pimp City” is bringing the two
together.
Like a sexed-up “Monopoly,” “Pimp City”
lets players roll the dice and prance around the board
“turning tricks” (taking turns) and exchanging money
for various, ahem, “services.” No double standards
here: Players can use a male or female figurine wearing tight,
curve-hugging or bulge-hugging clothing.
The goal of the game is to become the new “Pimp
Daddy” by, of course, earning the most money. As with
“Monopoly,” you can buy property and earn rent ““
in a twist, any player landing on your territory makes money too,
but you get to split the profits.
A highlight of the game is the “Alley,” an area
where an unlucky die roll will scuttle you into a dark place where
terrible things happen.
Just like passing “Go” in Monopoly, if you make your
way around the board, you get a cool $200 ““ but to earn it,
you have to shout, “Pay up, biotch! Where’s my
money?!”
It gets better: If you land on a pink penalty area, you can take
a truth-or-dare challenge. This is as good an excuse as any to get
ahead and start drinking.
So yes, this is a game for the mature ““ or maybe
it’s the other way around. Jokes about sexually transmitted
infections and sexual positions abound (“Get Sassy with The
Big Pimp Daddy. Lose $200,” reads one penalty card); this is
not a game you can take home to mom and dad.
The problem with the game is that it is, unfortunately, a bit
more complicated than old favorites such as “Monopoly”
or “Life.” This makes it hard to play with a few drinks
under your belt, much less teach new potential pimp daddies the
rules of the street. And obviously it’s more than a little
risque, but if that doesn’t bother you, “Pimp
City” is tons of fun.
