The new Monopoly Revolution features a modern circular playing surface perfect for travel. Compact and sleek, Monopoly Revolution is the first design in the game’s 75-year history to feature a completely new board.
All the traditional game playing features remain the same, but the Monopoly Revolution also includes ‘here and now’ pricing, an electronic game pod that tracks players’ money (no more corrupt bankers) and sound effects and song clips. Monopoly Revolution will be available in Fall 2010 for $35.
