Hasbro ups the ante with a new take on a classic board game -- Monopoly Board Crawl is a boozy change on the property-trading game. Designed for adults only, the beloved board game retains familiar elements including the rolling of the dice, and acquiring property, with the main twist being the addition of alcohol.
Instead of paying up in Monopoly money, players will pay in sips of their preferred drink. This turns the experience into a lively social one instead of one that is more strategic. It keeps players engaged and they only need to make one lap around the board with the goal of collecting the most Title Deeds while navigating through the party-themed advancements.
