Hasbro Games Monopoly Classic Refresh

monopoly, the classic board game that originated more than 100 years ago as an anti-capitalist critique of wealth inequality, is getting a fresh coat of paint and some interesting new features. 

The revised look of the game’s currency and the shape of the deed, Community Chest, and Chance cards inside the box, which once again can be differentiated by their profiles alone. There’s even a sturdy plastic organizer so that all of the game components have their own little nooks or crannies to occupy on the table and inside the box.

Once out of the box the next thing to notice about the new game is the size of its components. The metal movers, including a new moneybag standing in for the classic battleship, are roughly 20% bigger than the originals. The houses and hotels are embiggened as well. 

Monopoly Free Parking Jackpot Expansion, riffs on the traditional house rule that hands out the game’s Luxury Tax as a kind of grand prize. It adds a spinner to the board, granting players a chance to let it ride without adding money back into the in-game economy and slowing down the game.

Meanwhile, Monopoly Go to Jail Expansion, removes some of the sting of being sent to the hoosegow by adding corruption cards that are only available to convicted felons. Monopoly Buy Everything Expansion puts literally everything – including the bank itself – up for sale.
