Even as an adult, a game that's still fun to play is the 'If I was rich' game. If I was rich I'd have a room in my house made out of trampolines and a massive library made out of books from Metropolis. Hard cover books about architecture, art, design, photography and books about not much at all but that make you laugh and books all the books you have given to people as presents but really wanted to keep yourself.

But it's also okay to be poor at Metropolis. For under 20 dollars you can buy pens that look like skeletons, notebooks that look like writer's block and paperbacks that you can read and then tear up to plug the holes in the soles of your shoes. Metropolis is also the best place to wait for your friends (or dole day) to arrive with comfy leather seats specially designed for boney hipster bums.
