What is HopBusiness?
Host the Hop Cup to multiply your rents, fly anywhere from Hop Tour, dodge Hop Island and play chance cards like Earthquake and Power cut.
There are four ways to win: a triple monopoly, a whole side of the board, all four resorts, or bankrupting everyone else.
Play free for all, from a 1v1 up to four players, or as 2v2 teams. Bots fill empty seats, and anyone else in the lobby can watch.
