Software Reviews of Monopoly 2008
Customer Review: Fun version of Monopoly for the PC
Summary: 4 Stars
I think this is a fun game that hold true to the board game. You can play against one to three opponents. Those opponents can be "human" or computer player(s), or a combination of both. The computer player(s) can be set to one of three different skill levels. I have enjoyed the game the most when I have played against one other person or computer opponent.
The game moves much more quickly than the board game and you can select from different options that make the game go by even faster, including dealing out part or all of the properties at the beginning. It allows you to set house rules for each game, such as receiving $500 for landing on Free Parking.
One drawback is that you have to set the house rules over again after each game; the game doesn't allow you to save your favorite settings. Trades do seem to work a little strangely. The computer seems to look only at the face value of the properties, and not whether or not the property will give you a Monopoly.
Overall I think the good parts of the game outweigh the bad, and I would recommend this as a great game for the whole family.
