Yes.
YES (but not necessarily kids, or "toys" exactly. So actually, no.). Veeeery close. But what about the $50?

Now i am more confused than before.
So .....
Are they playing?
Is it a situation that can apply to both kids and adults?
The car and the house are toys or not?

They're playing.
Can apply to both kids and adults, yes.
The car and the house are pieces in a larger game.
In this particular situation are they adults? Or is it relevant wether they are adults or kids?
So they are playing near a railway, one man is pushing a car smaller than normal cars. He cannot drive it because he is bigger than the car. He stops in front of a house (the house is smaller than usual houses) and gives the owner of the house 50 dollars.
Are they on some kind of playing ground with miniature cars, houses, trains, etc?
Ok...first time in this game but let me see here if I can give a solution-
Is the person is in a store and sees a model village with the house and railroad and car- pushes the car in front of the house, decides he wants to buy the set and pays the owner of the store- therefore the house as well- $50 for it....?
or am I completely off?

No, actually he does not buy anything nor does he get something in return for the money ........
Oh yah, I realized that a few minutes after posting it...my bad.
Is it extremely relevant that the house is green? Or is it only slightly relevant?

I don't really know that. We are waiting for scotp......
But what i know is that they are playing so we need to find the reason for the money..........
An update on what we know-
Positive Statements

2. He owed the money to the owner.
3. There is nothing wrong with the car, but the man is pushing it.
4.The house is near a railroad.

11. The setting is relevant
12. They are people (not necessarily kids) playing with something (not necessarily toys)
13. Can apply to both kids and adults, yes.

Negative Statements
1. They do not have a bet.
2. He does not pay him for a service; he does not get anything in return.

4. The owner is not blackmailing him.

6. He didn't destroy or take something that belonged to the owner.

Very good.
So we pretty much established the setting, the fact that they are playing..... We need the reason for the money.
Is the money part of the game they are playing?
Does the 'owner' of the house do someting with the money?

Is it real money?
Is it play money?
Is the money counterfeit?
Was the owner expecting the money earlier?
Was the guy planning on paying the owner before he pushed the car in front of the owner's house?

Hi everyone! Long time since my last visit to the forum!!!
I love this kind of games ^_^
Are they playing Monopoly?? The owner of the car has fallen in a square (near the train station?) that belongs to another player, and the fee is 50$..
Is that so??
Wow, u're good. You might have just solved the problem.
We'll just have to wait and see
YES!!!!
So was this unfair from the start? Do you international folks have a reasonable knowledge of Monopoly?
Yes we do ............
It was really good, i loved it
