A Monopoly-style board game in which players run an imperiled marijuana growing operation has been uprooted from the New York Toy Fair, the Calgary Sun reports. The Grow-Op Game, manufactured by Bored Games Corp. of Vancouver, British Columbia, was pulled because Toy Industry Association officials decided it violates the values the group seeks to portray and its mandate to support positive development of children.

“It really did surprise me,” Bored Games spokesman Ivan Solomon said. “There’s a lot of other games out there touting everything from guns to war and violence. We see this game as a sort of education: If you’re thinking about starting a grow operation, it’s not going to be easy.
