My boyfriend (21m) loved this as a present!
I particularly loved the range of silver playing items you could use.
I wasn’t aware that the thimble had been removed from monopoly (most of my family sets are OLD) but it wouldn’t be complete without it, I must say!
What an entertaining game, We had a lovely time with the family. The board is big, thick, and with clear writing. Loved the little figurine option to select from your persona. It was complete value for money in the holidays and had a great time.
Purchased this as a gift for my niece who hadn’t played Monopoly in years, so receiving the game as a gift likely brought back fond memories and nostalgia. Rediscovering a classic game can be a heartwarming experience and often provide a unique opportunity for families to spend quality time together.
This kind of engagement is what makes board games a great source of entertainment.
An great alternative to Video Games.
Ok game, but doesn’t take long to play.
You have to buy everything you land on so money doesn’t last. Once one players money is all gone the game is over. Person with the most money wins.
The game is similar enough in format to regular monopoly that it’s readying little ones for the big game in time.
So, the differences are –
The only money are 1 notes. So it’s much easier to manage buying property and paying rent etc as they only have 1s to count up.
When you land on a property, if it’s free you have to buy it. There’s no property cards, each player has little discs that match their playing piece, and those are what you place then on the property you own.
There’s no houses or hotels to buy to put on your property.
There are chance cards, and they’re largely good ones (a little too many good ones perhaps). They are things like ‘move ahead UP TO 5 spaces’ (therefore children have the possiblity and choice to avoid landing on someone else’s property and paying rent), a few ‘give this card to the Duck eg player and on their next go they can choose a property to buy’, and quite a few ‘move to a red or blue eg property and if it’s available get it for free’.
If you land on another players property you pay them rent which is the same price the player paid for it. If they own both properties for that colour then you have to pay them double rent.
The first person to go bankrupt signals the end of the game. Then whoever has the most money is the winner.
This means that the game ends a lot sooner than regular monopoly.
Which, when you’re playing with little ones can be a good thing! But of course, if you’re all enjoying then you just play again.
We’ve all had a lot of fun playing this game as a family and I’m really glad I bought it.
It’s very easy for children to understand the simple rules.
The numbers they’re dealing with, providing they can recognise numbers, are really low – at most the highest property to buy is 5, and the highest double rent to pay is 10, so as long as they can count up to ten they’ll be fine, and help with reading chance cards if need be too.
