Monopoly Jail Three-Doubles Exit Rule

Resolve observed Monopoly third-consecutive-double jailing versus jailed double/third-failed-attempt release; jailed doubles do not grant another roll. Fees, cards, landing effects and voluntary early payment are outside this state transition.

Description

Monopoly doubles and jail create distinct turn transitions.

Monopoly doubles and jail create distinct turn transitions. Doubles release a jailed player without awarding an extra roll.^[1]

Enter two dice 1–6, prior doubles 0–2, failed jail rolls 0–2 and jail status. A jailed player must have zero prior doubles; a free player zero jail failures. Return movement, counters, release/payment/jail and extra-roll flags under these transitions.

Limitations and assumptions

No board position, cards, rent or property rules are processed.

Numeric inputs, where present, must be finite. Follow the calculation-specific rules for overflow, underflow and exceptional cases. Numeric lists are limited to 10,000 entries; string lists to 128 strings of at most 128 characters each. The rules above may impose smaller limits. Missing required fields, extra fields, wrong value types and violations of the calculation rules are input errors. A successfully returned false flag is an evaluated outcome; its meaning is explained above.

Alternative or Complementary methods

Use 2048 Merge Value Sum Per Swipe: A 2048 left move compresses a row and merges equal neighbors once per move. Newly merged tiles cannot merge again immediately. For a complementary task, use Stratego Rank Resolve Lookup: Stratego combat includes attack-specific exceptions for the spy and miner. Equal ordinary ranks remove both pieces.
