Monopoly entered real life through their new German print ads. “Own it all†is the catchphrase for these eye-popping advertisements. The classic board game portrays four different properties in the game and the red and green colors signify their respective net worth.
I would love to see some of these ads on billboards. As a big Monopoly fan, I think it is time to bring this wholesome board game back to the forefront.
Implications - Monopoly was an enormously popular game for many people growing up, and with such its effects are still being felt within society. Such references to popular games and objects within mass culture can help subsequent products and gain consumer praise.
