Product Review about Monopoly Here & Now Limited Edition

Fun, updated version, November 25, 2007
By Cathi "Blessed Mommy of 4 girls" (Indiana)

Durability:3.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars

We bought Monopoly here in order to start a new tradition for our 11 year daughter on Family Fun Night. It is neat, updated version. We miss the "kitty" on "FREE PARKING" with the new version. But, the money amounts are more realistic than the original and there are airports, instead of railroads. The Community Chest and Chance haven't changed much, except for money amounts.

The utilities are now internet services. Luxury tax is now income tax.

Some of the updated playing pieces are a Labradoodle, New Balance tennis shoe, airplane, Starbuck's mug, laptop and cellphone.

We find it annoying that you have to separate the money before putting the game up. It won't fit in the box when it is still in the bankers plastic area.

Overall, we think this is still a great game, maybe even better than the Monopoly here original
