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

MONOPOLY Arguments and plenty of fun. This is one of those games that could go on and on forever. You could stay up all night and the game still wouldn’t be over.

The best game in my opinion. We all love money, and we all love getting lots of it (except for some strange sects) this is a game that simulates the power you can get for £££. Watch your empire grow as you gather properties from around the board, and develope lush hotels, chagring extravagent fees on each one of them. It is a mixture of shrewd ...  Read the complete review

Would everyone not agree that the main principle behind the creation of Monopoly is to train children at a young age to become greedy Capitalists. Surely this is the wrong thing to teach to young children as it encourages them to exploit their neighbour to the point of bankruptcy and the inevitable exit from the game. Shouldn't we be teaching ...  Read the complete review

How many generations of families have sat and played and how many will in years to come? A truly superb game untouched by change over the years and certainly one that all the family can play.

There is a good dollop of luck in the game, but it is ...  Read the complete review

In a country renowned for it's lack of tolerance to people that enjoy playing games, Monopoly is something of an exception. It's one of the games that is dragged out for Christmas when all the family is there, though a games player might struggle with their patience when Great Aunt Mabel keeps trying to build hotels on Euston! ...  Read the complete review

The enduring popularity of Monopoly says a lot about humanity. Specifically it says that we are greedy, vindictive, merciless b**tards who like nothing better than the chance of rubbing the noses of everyone else (even our nearest and dearest) into the dirt, and then gloating about it afterwards. I have read about games of Monopoly in the States ...  Read the complete review
