Buy Monopoly City

Fantastic new edition of the classic board game!  Monopoly City is a great game of strategy.A twist on the classic game of properties that comes with a deal making button!

Build up your city and watch your fortunes grow, where you build from the start, developing 3D properties in the centre of the board, from stadiums to skyscrapers! Develop your buildings cleverly to maximise your profit and bring the price of your opponent’s property down! You can negatively impact other players’ property values by building undesirable structures nearby!

What others are saying about Monopoly City:

Monopoly is my all-time favourite board game but even I’ll admit after probably playing hundreds of games now it can get a bit ’samey’. I got this not long after it was released and have played it numerous times now.

It’s best summed up by saying it’s similar to Monopoly but different too. The board is arranged in a similar way and the aim of the game is again to move around the board, collect rent and buy properties and the richest player wins. However, the difference is the way you go about winning (or losing!)

Instead of houses and hotels there are various buildings that can be built, any time on your turn, on any of your properties. You don’t have to have all of the colours in a group to build and your buildings now go in the middle of the board (you build a city) and collect increasing values of rent as in Monopoly. Community Chest cards have gone, new Chance cards are in and there is an interesting “rent dodge” card under Free Parking. Stations have been replaced with build a hazard/attraction spaces which stop another player collecting rent/block another player stopping you collecting rent. Electricity Company and Water Works have also gone. I promise you these aren’t missed, after the initial “oh, where have they gone?”, because of all of the new features. The money has also been revamped, it’s not pounds sterling anymore but Monopoly money. It doesn’t really make much difference, just more zeros on the end of the notes!

However, the biggest difference for me is that the game forces you to auction properties if you don’t buy them on your turn (or you can’t afford to buy a property you land on). There are also a few ‘auction’ spaces on the board. I know Monopoly, if played according to the house rules, made you auction but few people I know did in fact auction. It’s good because it speeds the game up and you only have 50 seconds to auction a property off (there’s a timer that beeps!) and makes it more exciting.

There are skyscrapers that double your rent if you own all properties in a colour group and the Monopoly Tower doubles the rent of all of your properties!

Overall, a brilliant game that has kept the core features in that made the original Monopoly great but altered a few things to make the game arguably more fun and exciting than the original.
