Pogromly, the Game As Clever As Its Name

First there was Warsaw Ghetto Monopoly—a version of the classic board game that was actually made in the ghetto by its unfortunate inhabitants. There is also Train, a high-concept game that interrogates notions of complicity by making the player put yellow figurines on trains bound for the camps; “Train is over when it ends,” reads the game’s instructions.

But Pogromly, another Monopoly rip-off, is not, er, so well intended. It’s distributed by German neo-Nazis, as early as 1997 and as recently as last month. The board has a picture of Hitler and swastikas. I don’t even want to know what happens if you land on the “Go to Jail” spot.
