Hi Milo.
Funny you didn't get a manual. It's stated in the Monopoly rules that at the
start of the game, one player is designated the banker. This doesn't
actually mean anything in play terms, or give any advantages to that player,
but basically the banker is the one who handles all the practical matters.
It's the banker who distributes money at the start of a game, gives change
when it is needed, takes money for buying houses or hotels or morgaged
properties and puts it in the bank etc.
Think of the banker like the gm of the game, or as performing all the
functions that the basic computer program does in something like Jim
Kitchin's or rs games monopoly.
Hth.
All the best,
Dark.
