What is The Electronic Banking Edition of Monopoly

The Electronic Banking Edition of Monopoly forgoes the original green, orange, pink and yellow money in favor of the more modern plastic debit card. Each player has their own debit card, and the banker now has an electronic swiper to credit and debit your card. The jury is still out on whether this makes it easier or harder for the banker to cheat. Other updates include: modernized tokens, newer, more relevant landmarks, and higher property values so the sums are more in the millions (versus thousands) range. For example, Boardwalk for $400 is replaced with Times Square selling for a cool $20 million.



This awesome Game Includes:
6 tokens: flat screen TV, dog in a handbag, Segway personal transporter, Altoids tin, space shuttle and baseball cap
Title deed cards with higher property values
Chest and Community cards
6 debit cards
1 card swiper
32 houses
12 hotels
2 dice

This free game is very fun, but you only get 60 min. to play (well 57.30 min. to play it cuts off and doesn't tell you who won) The download cost $19.99 and I would not buy it because I have seen better games that give you the following;

  1. Internet play
  2. More player options
  3. Auto play

But if your at home and your bored and your just looking for a quick game this will do fine.
