Il legame tra giochi da tavolo e videogames è sempre stato molto forte e le interazioni tra questi due passatempi, negli anni, hanno assunto varie forme e contaminazioni. Si va dallo sfruttare le regole ed i meccanismi ludici dei board game per costruire l'ossatura di giochi di ruolo o simili, come per esempio è successo tra la serie Baldur's Gate e il set Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Seconda Edizione, a “semplici” trasposizioni dei giochi in scatola, ccome nel caso degli scacchi o dei solitari, fino ad arrivare ai complicatissimi wargame, che sfruttano il mezzo informatico per semplificare il calcolo degli scontri e velocizzare le operazioni di assemblamento e riordino del piano di gioco. Vi sono anche casi nei quali serie come Civilizationvengono convertite in versione da tavolo, ma questa è un'altra storia...

I received an email from eBay asking me to write a review about the Monopoly Computer Game I had purchased. I love it! It is a great way to pass time when played alone against the computer, or it can be played with friends, passing the mouse back and forth. Some of the sound effects can be a little annoying, like the Police car when you are sent to jail, but you can make that noise go away by clicking the mouse. Some games can be quite interesting and exciting, when you and the computer have a nearly equal number of properties. I need to play the game at its highest level, or the computer makes what I perceive as stupid mistakes, taking away any sense of accomplishment, when played at the highest level the game can be ruthless. I enjoy playing the game while multitasking, and listening to the Old Time Radio website. It keeps me completely occupied, listening to 1940’s radio shows like the “Shadow” while playing the game. Monopoly can be a lot of fun, I do not regret my purchase, and my only real complaint is that it does not keep high scores.Read full review
The greatest feature about this game is you don't have to waste time counting out money, the computer does it for you which saves time and labor. I have to admit I prefer the tactile feel and experience of rolling the dice which is absent here. You pretty much have to accept the computer's roll though you may feel you could have done a better job at rolling better numbers. I tried an online version of the same game and decide to make a buy because the online game was fraught with constant commercial interruptions. The difference with this board from the online version is that it is viewed top down vs 3/4 view for the online version (which was more comfortable and realistic) but that is a small gripe and should not deter you from trying this game. I purchased this for less than $8 so it was also a great value. It comes with a disc and jeweled case (no manual). Accessing the help button at the beginning serves as the manual and divides the rules into two tabbed sections: official game rules and house rules. Its an easy game to play with. I highly recommend this game.Read full review
Monopoly here & now. I like the way the properties have been updated. I don't really like that the money amounts have increased. They have just added a bunch of zeros to increase the amounts which makes it kind of more difficult than the original game, but I really like this game. It has great graphics, sound effects, and you can pick the level of difficulty of your computer player. You can also customize the rules if you want. I play this game quite often. It is vey fun to play.
THERE'S NOTHING I DISLIKE ABOUT THIS GAME - TRYING TO BUY THE CLASSIC ONE TO SEE IF I'LL ENJOY IT AS MUCH. NEVER DID LIKE PLAYING MONOPOLY BUT THIS GAME HAS TOTALLY CHANGED MY MIND. STOPPED PLAYING OTHER FAVORITE PC GAMES AND HAVE EVEN DELETED SOME FROM MY SHOCKWAVE AND BIG FISH WHICH I BELONG TO AS A MEMBER AND PAY A MONTHLY FEE. WHY? THIS GAME IS FAR MORE INTRIGUING THAN ANY THEY HAVE TO OFFER. PLAY IT, YOU WILL SEE I'M BEING TRUTHFUL WITH YOU AND YOU WILL BE GLAD YOU DID! GLAD I HAD THE SENSE TO PURCHASE IT. THINK I GOT IT FROM BARGAINS BUYER'S OFF EBAY AND WHAT A GREAT PRICES THEY HAVE!!!! IF YOU VISIT THEIR SITE, JUST TELL THEM TOYEZ777 SENT YOU.
