Monopoly Reviews

Monopoly is a traditional game. I think this game is really fun but can get boring and tiring for some people. It is intreesting to go around the board and recognise places on it, places you have heard of. It isn't all American names like usual. This is a nice family game that will keep you busy for quite some time! You have to try and be the ...  Read the complete review

If I had to pick a favourite board game, I think this would have to be it. No matter how many times you play it, it doesn’t get boring. Though if you play it for hours and hours on end, then you can tire of it. I remember when I was younger, and one year, during the summer holidays, we spent days playing Monopoly. Eventually, we did get ...  Read the complete review

With Christmas a coming and the goose getting fat, here's a recommendation of the classic mercenaries game - Monopoly. Your task - to gain a monopoly of the city's property and send other players into bankruptcy. Very friendly. It plays best with about four players, and is quite tactical and great fun. For the ...  Read the complete review

Monopoly seems to be the perfect board game for marketing gurus to cash in on the latest craze. Whether it be the re-release of Star Wars(Star Wars Monopoly) or the incredibly overhyped Titanic move(Monopoly the Titanic edition) or now the inexplicable Pokemon craze, there is always a way that Monopoly can be adjusted to fit around it. With the ...  Read the complete review

Monopoly is one game that will never date. The only thing that dates is the prices of the streets. This game is a family favourite. Forgot the game of Monopoly, it spoils the idea of nicking 500's whilst nobody is looking. Good fun and bound to cause arguments of some sort Monopoly is a board game for all the family to enjoy. Yorkshire ...  Read the complete review

Yes Monopoly is probably the most inventive and original game ever created. in fact it was thought up by a poor man struggling with his finances so he thought he'd make a game with pretend money! I doubt if it helped him in his time but the game has become a franchise - there are so many different editions - like Star Wras, Star ...  Read the complete review

Monopoly has been around for years, and it is trying to undergo something of an image change with different editions of the game coming out all the time. (Star Wars, Star Trek, London, New York etc). The basic idea of the game is to amass as much money and property as you can, whilst causing your friends to be bankrupted. It is a game so ...  Read the complete review

Every year on boxing day, when all the family is at my Grans, house we settle down to a nice game of monopoly, but it never turns out to be a nice game, as arguments ensue, about who cheats and how much people are in debt by, and even what peices people are going to be. This could be slightly down to me, because of playing to win, like ...  Read the complete review

Monopoly, a traditional game that everyone seems to think is so fantastic, but I think it just takes ages to set up and ages to play. It just isn't worth it. I have never actually finished a game of Monopoly. When I used to play it, the winner was the person at the end of an hour or so who had most cash in their bank, added to the value of ...  Read the complete review

I am not a lover of board games but there are a couple that I really enjoy, one of them being Monopoly! I think that the feeling of making other people bankrupt and grabbing all the rent and taxes I can gives me some ego boost! Weird I know but it's so addictive. I even bought the Playstation version of the game! I think that ...  Read the complete review

A board game that is a good family game which has luck and skill coming into it. The english game has London Streets like Mayfair etc and english railway stations. But did you know that in America a lot of the different states have their own game? with street names from their towns. It is played nearly the same but the cards are ...  Read the complete review

The perfect recipe for a good family argument. I bought this last Christmas, thinking it would be the perfect game to play after Christmas dinner but I had forgotten just how many arguments it causes. Years ago, we tried playing the original version and nearly had a full scale war on our hands, but not having learned my lesson, I ...  Read the complete review

Ever wanted to own a couple of Stations? How about a hotel on Park Lane? Well you can if you play Monopoly. Im sure this is how cut throat Landords learn their trade. This game teaches people how to be ruthless in the property market by charging extortionate rents to other players. Lets get into what its about. It really a board game and ...  Read the complete review

I like Monopoly, although it's one of those games you have to be in the mood for. But with a few hours set aside, and plenty of players (it's always better with at least three, two isn't great) it can be great fun. The object of the game is to buy property, and then charge rent if anyone else lands on it. To win the game, you ...  Read the complete review

Who has not heard of Monopoly? The classic game of one- upmanship. There should be no real reason to explain the game. Acquire all of the property around the board and sqeeze everybody else out. Once you have all of the property and all of the money you are the winner, unless you set a timescale, then it is the person with the ...  Read the complete review

Monopoly is a game that I have recently rediscovered as an adult while teaching it to my children. It is definitely a game to play as a family. I have recently begun to play this game with my daughters aged 8 & 9. They have picked up the principles of the game with ease and are able to play a competative game. Both have been known to win. ...  Read the complete review

I have recently rediscovered the joys & frustrations of playing monopoly due to my son buying a second hand set at a car boot sale. This is the game that everyone must have played at some time as it has been around forever or so it seems. The concept is simple you have to accumilate as much money & property as you can even if it means ...  Read the complete review

I find it a tragedy that there are hardly any classic games being invented these days, however it’s good to see that Monopoly is still the old favorite it has always been. At least it’s one of mine, to my husband who hates playing board games it’s a nightmare! The strategy? To bankrupt all the other players by buying ...  Read the complete review

Monopoly is a game that I should think every household has stashed away somewhere. It is a great all round family game teaching the real young ones how to count as they can move your piece round the board. Teaching the slightly older ones money and change helping with there maths and gives the older ones and parents a good game. It is a ...  Read the complete review

This game has been around for years and I remember my older sisters having a German version when I was a kid. It is a game that most members of the family can play ( a bit complicated for the younger ones) and one that will keep you entertained for hours. It is a good reliable game made by Waddingtons. Can be purchased almost ...  Read the complete review
