Would you ever have guessed?

Fun fact: We personally worked with the Heretic Movie’s veteran art director and property master Dean Goodine to design a replica of the board game that you’ll see in the film from the rare original Landlords game created by Lizzie Magie which we have on display here in Macomb.

Heritic is now topping the charts on several streaming platforms, including Max, Hulu, and Prime Video. 🍿🎥 So, grab your popcorn and catch a glimpse of Macomb’s history and a mention of our own Lizzie Magie!

🎲 You can see our original Landlords game along with others games Lizzie invented on display in the window of Clock Tower Community Bank while you play Macombopoly on our downtown Square.

We love that Macombopoly / Lizzie Magie - Macomb's Inventor of Monopoly is getting more recognition. Pay homage to Lizzie with a game of Macombopoly any time in Macomb’s Downtown Courthouse Square!
