Product Description
Hamleys Awards nominee Here and Now Electronic Monopoly is ultimate update of the classic property trading board game about getting rich quick. Starting from the famous "GO" space, move around the board, buying and selling properties, building apartments and hotels as you go. Watch out for players landing on your property ? they owe you rent! And don?t forget to collect 2 million on your bankcard every time you pass "GO"!
The world has changed amazingly over the last 70 years since Monopoly was invented. Rent has rocketed, so now you can wheel and deal without the hassle of carrying loads of cash on you. All you need to do, is swipe your bankcard to transfer money- it couldn?t be easier!
Places on the board have also changed to reflect London today? from Bishopsgate to Kensington Palace Gardens. Choose from a range of new movers including a mobile phone, roller blade, or even a cheeseburger.

 Electronic Money!?!?!?! December 15, 2007

The world has gone mad, I'm 26 and I would say I learnt a lot through many of these old games which required a little brain workout. Buy the classic version; it's great fun and you'll actually get to use some brain power :)

This is quite a genious way of playing, it stops cheating, stops people hiding there money under the board and most of all makes you realise that monopoly is just as fun without the paper money! I got this thinking it will not have the same feel as the original yet in some ways it can be a lot more fun...meaning you can be a little bit more devious when you play : ) Great buy and a great present!

We bought this game,as a family game for christmas, but christmas came early, too many cold and wet afternoons!!! We have played this game again and again, we really haven't missed all the sorting of money etc.The only downside to this game is, that if your family get impatient when playing, you really do need a seperate banker! It is quite educational, even though it uses credit cards and a calculator/card machine, it still teaches the basics of money ie; if you haven't got it, don't spend it! It really is a great version of the classic, with a modern twist. Also with the box we had you had a chance to win 1000!!
Credit Card Monopoly September 13, 2007

I thought that with the so many different Monopoly's out recently, this one would slip by unnoticed.
But I was really wrong!
This is a great version, in my eyes by far the best. It uses credit cards which keep track of the money you own, and includes a credit machine which you use to add or subtract money from your accounts. Children will love to tap in the controls on the credit card machine, it looks quite like a PIN machine.
Also, inflation has finally caught up with Monopoly, with the whole value of money changing. Ownership of the exclusive Kensington Palace Gardens (previously Mayfair) will set you back a cool 2million pounds.
A great improvement on the old version, there are no negatives about it!
Modern Day Banking At It's Best! March 1, 2007
14 out of 18 found this review helpful
I bought this at xmas, as a present to all of us. It is soooo much easier, without all the money lying round, of course the man of the house wanted to be the banker! But within minutes was bored of the idea of putting cards in n out of the machine, n giving em back to the right person, as the game moves a lot quicker, seen as there is actually no passing money around the board. We all thoroughly enjoyed playing this version, as I hated monopoly, just because of the setup time, and sorting all the money out, i'd be bored before we started, but this is a lot easier. Highly recommended to any Monopoly fan!
