Gameplay Experience

Pros:

  • "The more often we play the better we get at the strategy."
  • "It’s Monopoly fun without the hours of gameplay. And it’s easy."
  • "This game cannot be played in 15 mins lol but it can be done anywhere from 30 mins to an hour based on how intensely everyone is playing."

  • "It changes quickly and our family loves the challenge and strategy you enjoy with this card version."

Cons:

  • "It sucked the life out of us and I don’t even want to attempt to play it again."
  • "There are some issues with determining the rules in certain situations but we have just researched them as best as possible."

Enjoyment & Fun Factor

  • "I literally force people to play with me. If you have ever thought, 'I love monopoly but hate how long it takes to play it' then this is the game for you."

Cons:

  • "I like to think we are of average to above average intelligence. There were so many great reviews! Those people are lying."
  • "We also made up our own rules as we went with some of the cards because the instructions were just not clear."
  • "The game is designed poorly; so poorly, it’s even more likely to cause family fights than the original board game."
  • "This game is a bit of a mix between Monopoly and Uno since it is card based and since you can choose your victims."
  • "It's not a particularly difficult game to learn and fans with experience in playing the board game should have a bit of an edge going in."
  • "My attention span can't sustain a full game of Monopoly so this is perfect for me!"
  • "This game can get pretty cutthroat, and because of the large luck element, it can feel unbalanced and unfair."
  • "If you are out of money, you have to use your properties to pay your debts. This means money is used solely to defend against losing your properties."
