I used to think that the Monopoly games were all the same endless, family-breaking game with different name/pictures for the streets. Boy, was I wrong! This Monopoly gamer has many variations from the original game, making the games funnier, shorter and simpler for young kids.The game has well-known characters form the Mario and Donkey Kong series, each of them with their unique skills. During the game, the players can buy and sell properties, but also use their skills to make their rivals drop coins on the board that they can later pick up. On top of it, every time a player passes Go, there is a "boss fight" with special bonuses. After the eight and last boss fight, the game ends and the player with the most points wins, so the game does not last forever.All in all, the feeling in this game feels a lot like Mario Kart, with a mixture of skill and luck. My six year old had no problem to learn the rules, and my wife, who normally does not like board games, found it fun enough to play it with us again.Be aware that while the game comes with four characters, there are expansions pack to add new characters with additional abilities. We bought Toad during a sale, and do not really plan to buy more. But if you like the "complete" feeling, you can consider one of the listings for the collector edition or bundled with all the characters.Bundle of All 8 Monopoly Gamer Edition Power Pack Pieces Complete Set,Red,One SizeHasbro Monopoly Gamer Collector's EditionMonopoly Gamer Pack Bundle (Amazon Exclusive)

Got it for $10 around Christmas. A lot more fun than regular Monopoly, a bit different too. Also a lot faster than regular Monopoly. My nephew who is 6 loves to play it, just a little hard to teach him what auctioning is and the relationship between the coins in the game and points.I wish the coins were plastic rather than cardboard like the collector's edition but it was fair for the price. You can buy additional characters and each character has their own ability for when you land on a power up star, but additional game pieces are OUTRAGEOUSLY expensive and character abilities sort of add an "unfairness" to the game. All a game of luck really, sometimes a little logic and of course you can use some math skills when counting coins. The coins rather than money bills and properties without houses and mansions make the game so much more enjoyable and less a pain to play, setup, and manage.You get 1 number die and a special ability die with cards that tell you what each ability does. Each character has an enhanced ability and a special ability for when you land on a star. Comes with single coins and coins that represent 5 coins. Property cards, boss cards (for when you pass Go!), and character cards.

A wonderful twist on a classic game. Our 6 year old enjoys playing during family game nights too. If you enjoy the Super Mario franchise from Nintendo and enjoy Monopoly, then would be willing to bet you will enjoy this too. You can also buy additional characters to play with for about $4 at Walmart or Target (amazon wants $10). The more characters you have, then you can play additional "Party" modes as described in the instructions. This adds another level of strategy and complexity. Worth every penny and is the top family board game at the moment.The idea of buying and selling land are still very much a part of the game. In fact, you are encouraged to do so in order to when the game. The only difference is instead of playing until you have everything or nobody has any money left, there are a set amount of turns. By turns I mean every time you pass Go, you fight a boss card. There are so many boss cards and when they are all gone the game is over. This is great to make a very short or very long game. Completely up to you if you in that regard. Game time usually takes all 3 of us about an hour to play.Best way to see how it works out is to visit YouTube. There you can see how the game is setup and played. This is what we did in addition to all the reviews and that did it for us. We just waited for a deal after that.
