Forget Park Place, I want to buy the Red Square
In case you have not hear about it, Monopoly is going global. According to Daily Mail UK, Google has been in contact with Hasbro to make a new Monopoly game that utilizes Google Maps.
With the release of the game, you will not only be able to buy the standard upgrades – House or Hotel, you will also be able to say, put a stadium on your pesky neighbors house. Don’t like your current office building? Buy the area, put up a skyscraper.
Not only will there be the standard modifications to the lots and upgrades, the chance cards will now give the option to build a prison or a garbage dump. The possibilities of where to put that are endless.
According the article:
Players start the free game with three million Monopoly dollars and can buy Downing Street for $231,000, while Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, where the White House stands, costs $2 million.
Rent is paid automatically each day, from $50,000 for a house to $100 million for a skyscraper.
I for one, look forward to playing. I have been waiting for a major change in the game for a very long time. Next one they need to do is Risk.
