My Thoughts

Finally, there's a game I can actually play with my kids! Monopoly For Nintendo Switch is an exciting family game that brings a classic board games to life on the small screen. You can have up to six players. Each one just has to take a turn with the controller. You can also choose to play against the computer, or go online to play with other people all over the world.  



 Playing the virtual versions is pretty much the same as playing the board game, except you don't have to worry about losing pieces and there are fun special effects throughout. There are three different 3D boards to choose from, and five different sets of house rules. Playing with my family was a lot of fun. Even the younger ones can take part.  I really love the option of being able to save the game. We all know how frustrating it can be to have to shut down the board game after it goes on for hours with no winner. You can't leave the physical game set up on the kitchen table for days on end, but now you can pick up right where you left off in this virtual version.


Playing online wasn't quite as much fun. If your opponent leaves, the game can end abruptly. My kids prefer playing with each other or against the computer rather than going online. Overall, though, we're very happy with this game. There was a similar version at an arcade on our boardwalk that my kids loved. That one cost me $1 for three rolls. Now they can play as long as they want! 



If you'd like to grab a copy of this exciting game, you can find it now in stores nationwide or online at Amazon.
