" Faithful casual board game with colorful graphics and multiplayer, but frequent crashes and bugs "

MONOPOLY® PLUS Review

MONOPOLY® PLUS offers a digital adaptation of the classic board game with cartoonish graphics and faithful gameplay mechanics. Players appreciate the nostalgic and interactive experience, making it enjoyable for casual sessions with friends. The game features a modernized interface that stays true to the original Monopoly rules, providing a familiar yet engaging experience for fans.

However, the game suffers from significant technical issues. Many users report login problems, crashes, and inability to play on new devices due to restrictive DRM tied to original hardware. These bugs and restrictions have caused frustration and even rendered the game unplayable for some. Additionally, players desire faster gameplay and more customization options, such as custom rules for private lobbies.

Overall, MONOPOLY® PLUS is a decent digital board game with entertaining visuals and mechanics, but its technical flaws and lack of flexibility limit its appeal for long-term play.
