Advantages brilliant family game
Disadvantages never ending
Now i think this game is a brilliant fun game. It can be played to bring family entertainment or even play with your friends. The old version monopoly with the notes is a fantastic idea as it not only gives children fun but it helps them realise how to manage their money better in a fun and exciting game and this is a skill that everyone needs later in life. This version of monopoly is great fun for birthdays and with alot of people.
Another version of monopoly is the travel one. This is a great idea as it is very compact and it allows you to take it anywhere. Although it is clever it is also very annoying as the board is very small and the pieces and the notes are very small and it is very hard to handle if you have big hands.The other version of monopoly is the new one with the credit cards. This is again an up to date version of the very old one it is a more modern version with using credit cards instead of using the notes which is in some ways better because you cant lose them but it is easier to cheat as you can jus type in a higher number to add onto your credit card or take more off somebodies and add it onto yours. This version does take some time to get used to, to get to know how to work the machine which is like a calculator and to get to know the places on the boards and the prices are in millions and thousands instead of pounds.
Overall all the monoploly versions have many advantages and also hasve their drawbacks but that is the same with everything.After this brief review i recommend you buy at least one version of monopoly i will not reccommend a version of the monopoly because everyone has their own tastes and oppinions so i will leave that decision up to you but please buy a monopoly game it is well worth the money.
Now i have many experiences of playing a monopoly version and i have never yet finished a game. The game does go on for a very long time so i would recommend setting a time limit and then count up your money and see who is the winner that way.

I have to be in the right mood to play this. I have the 'Here and Now' version which is a good update. The credit card one sounds like it would be much easier though.
