Late for the Sky Production Company was started in 1984 by a Miami University of Ohio student who started to create a Miami University campus version of Monopoly. The company then focused on expanding its products by keeping to college-themed versions. Later it expanded its product line to other themes.

The company's major product lines include "-opoly" games for nearly sixty major colleges and universities in the United States, and the "City in a Box" games, localized for major U.S. cities. They also have a line of specialty games, and produce custom games for other themes. Late For The Sky also manufactures custom "-opoly" games for communities and businesses. These games include custom images on the box, board, cards, and money, along with tokens chosen by the customer.

There are a few product line-wide deviations from a standard Monopoly board that make Late For the Sky's games discrete. Aesthetically, this includes replacing the standard color scheme of property sets with a rainbow scheme (with Red being the lowest value, and pink being the highest), and renaming all properties and tiles, including those not normally re-themed in officially licensed variations and localizations of Monopoly such as the "Chance" tiles (usually renamed "Contingency") the "Go to Jail" tile (often renamed "Go Home"). Besides these aesthetic changes, the board layout is essentially identical to Monopoly except that the final "Contingency" ("Chance") space is swapped with the second to last property, separating the properties in the final color group by two spaces instead of one.

The canonical record carries the following identifying particulars. It is also recorded that late for the Sky Production Company is recorded from 1984.
