Yes, this is a Soviet board game called ”Cooperative”.
When you buy all the three businesses of a given field, like recycling or repair of electronics, you can invest in production lines to profit more.
The board includes a rock recycling business. 🤔
There is no prison, just a square named ”holiday”. This sounds a bit suspicious, since one of the lucky chance cards is a ”get out of holiday” card. 😳

@kuokkanen it is worth noting that "cooperatives" in the 1980s soviet context were closer to being heavily-taxed and regulated private enterprises.
@kuokkanen check this out, #socialcoop peeps!
@kuokkanen i assume it still takes hours too long to play with the common house rules and ruins family holiday get-togethers.
@kuokkanen Sounds rough haha, but I am intrigued.
@kuokkanen I have been excellent boy and is nearly old new year.
@kuokkanen In my childhood (eastern Europe, russian occupation but not Russia) we had "Capitaly", hand-made. I think it was banned
@kuokkanen what do you mean? Don't you want to end your holiday early so that you can get back to contributing to the greatness that is mother russia?
