I am obsessed with Marvel films and was excited to find a Monopoly game with Marvel themes and superheroes. My friends are delighted and cannot wait to play.
I love the superpowers and dynamism of the flip board. It took a while to set it up the first time and catch the drift of what needs doing. However, it is such fun, and for someone who loves Marvel, this Monolopy is a marvel .
So – on first opening, you need to clip the frames on the cards for the board, and pop out all the tokens out of the cardboard – so initial set up takes a little longer than when you play again.
Fairly easy to set up, and instructions are fairly easy to follow. We had to refer to them a fair bit the first time – but once you get it it’s a good game for Marvel fans.
You can play as one of the 4 characters, have battles and flip the board.
Would recommend – and all goes back nicely in the box once played for easy storage.
My 8 year old found it easy enough to play.
This Barbie Monoply is so pink and creative. I love it. It has a slightly different twist to the original as there is a ‘Be Anything Card’ where if you roll a B on the dice you get to use the card. For example if I rolled a B and 2 I would do what is on the card I chose. One of them is either get 50 from the bank or have a player pay you 10 for each property they own. It is a fun way for Barbie lovers especially at a young age to learn how to be smart with money and how to manage in the future.
Great hit with my family, my son is Fortnite obsessed so he was bound to love it but I didn’t expect his 89 year old great grandmother to enjoy it just as much!!
Really liked playing this, (not just because I won every time ) we play a lot of games, this makes monopoly a bit more fast paced and adds interest for the kids.
Got this for my boyfriend for his birthday. He loves both LOTR and monopoly, and made me watch the movies when we first started dating, we also play monopoly quite a bit (board game dates are fun and free!) so when i saw this i knew he would it – and winning it too!
You have to read the rulesquite a bit on the first round as there are new componants of the game in this edition (you get a ring of power to put on your character which makes you invisible to paying rent and to jail) but its pretty easy to pick up! I’m not great at monopoly and it was just the two of us playing so it only lasted around an hour, but i can see that it could last much longer if youre more determined reach Mount Doom!
Also arrived in perfect condition!
This was a gift, but I got to see it. Full of original Stranger Things takes on the old board game, including the currency. The Stranger Things fan that received this was very happy.
Package arrived in good order. Found it abit boring at first but then after a while when we all understood the game properly it was good fun and the kids loved it. Good fun with 4 players or more.
I bought this as a gift for friends & was lucky enough to play it with them – it was brilliant! This version of the game is a lot more simple than the original Monoply (there’s less money to contend with) & we loved the addition of the sound effect Question Block. Perfect for a family or if you love Mario or even if you’ve never been a fan! It was great fun & would love to play again!
The negative: The box doesn’t have slots to hold your hard-cardboard made coins or property cards while playing. The coins can be easily lost and may get disorganised but what a actually affects gameplay, is that a few of the character pieces are very hard to distinguish as they don’t have anything easily visible to tell who is who as it’s plain metal.
It is good that the pieces are solid and the inclusion of the ring & ring rules are what makes the game different overall. Owning the ring can benefit you so much but the Eye of Sauron can change your game a lot if you either roll it on the dice or advance with the Eye of Sauron piece.
Recommended, great fun.
The board is set up perfectly, although there are some squares missing. I’m not sure whether this was because they ran out of ideas for what some spaces could be, or if it was just for the spacing of it, but instead of three coloured spaces, for most, there are just two.
It has the chest cards, but the chance cards have been cleverly swapped with an electronic question mark box. Just press it and take a chance to what you might get. Rather usefully, you are given a reminder card so you know what each of the sounds mean and represent. Unfortunately when I played it, I kept getting his with paying up. I think it has it in for me!
The houses and hotels have been beautifully changed for toads houses and peaches castles. The Monopoly money has also been replaced with coins, separated into ones and fives. Admittedly, I did think there wasn’t enough of them to go around, and I do think there is a possibility that you may run out of them at some point if there were more players (possibly the only down side), but we had enough between three of us to be able to play it sufficiently. I’d probably recommend that the more coins are added into the game for future reference to help avoid this issue.
I quite enjoyed playing it, it was a fun alternative to the original game.
