A property trading game gives each player a token, a stack of play money and a board of deeds to buy, trade and build on. The themed versions keep that format but swap the streets for dinosaurs, dogs, bugs, golf courses or fish, and many print facts on the cards.
The six games below come from two publishers, Late for the Sky and Outset Media, and all list 2 to 6 players and ages 8 and up. Details come from each listing page and are the publishers’ own claims. We have not played these copies ourselves. Where a listing disagrees with itself, we say so.

The 6 Best Property Trading Board Games
1. Late for the Sky Dino-Opoly
A dinosaur-themed trading game in which players collect dino deeds and trade fossils. The maker says each card carries a dino fact, and lists 2 to 6 players, ages 8 and up and about an hour. The box has a board, custom tokens, deed cards and dice. The details table files the game under party games, which is an unusual label.
Suits: dinosaur fans. Strengths: facts on every card. Weaknesses: a long game for young children. Skip it if you want a short game.

2. Outset Media Golf-Opoly
A golf-themed property trading game for 2 to 6 players, ages 8 and up, with about 60 minutes of play. You collect golf properties, then trade shacks for clubhouses to raise the rent, and a storm shelter sends you out for three turns. The details table lists the player count as 6 and the model as 14438.
Suits: golf fans. Strengths: a clear upgrade path from shacks to clubhouses. Weaknesses: the player data is inconsistent. Skip it if nobody plays golf.

3. Outset Media Dog-Opoly
The board uses popular dog breeds from smallest to largest, and the back of each deed carries a dog fact. Players buy dogs, collect toys and trade them in for big bones. The text says 2 to 6 players, ages 8 and up and 60 minutes, while the table lists a minimum age of 96, which cannot be right.
Suits: dog lovers. Strengths: a breed-by-size board. Weaknesses: a nonsense age field. Skip it if you want a non-animal theme.

6. Outset Media 90s-Opoly
A trading game set in the 1990s in which blocks of time trade up to a decade. The maker lists 2 to 6 players, ages 8 and up, 60 minutes and model 14422. The theme leans on nostalgia, so the younger players it lists may not get the jokes, and the table again shows a minimum age of 96.
Suits: adults who grew up in the 1990s. Strengths: a nostalgic theme. Weaknesses: references suit older players. Skip it if you play with young children.
