There are so many versions of Monopoly that choosing the one - the best - borders on a miracle. Although the game is mechanically very simple and has its age, it still enjoys great popularity, and its subsequent editions are flooding the shelves of shops. All the board versions are more or less the same, but some introduce, in addition to thematically adapted graphics, additional rules. We encourage you to familiarize yourself with the most interesting versions of this cult game!
Monopoly: Star Wars
I must admit that I am a fan of the traditional version of Monopoly and I treat all the others as curiosities. But if I had to choose, among all the varieties my favorite is definitely Monopoly Star Warsby Hasbro, licensed by Lucasfilm Ltd. In this game, we travel through a distant galaxy to set up bases on planets known to us from the movies, such as Tatooine, Hoth or Dagobah. We can play the role of one of the heroes belonging to the Rebels or the Empire. When playing with several people, we divide into teams of the Light and Dark Side of the Force, which is an interesting diversion, because it allows us to operate in a cooperative mode. Additionally, fate and chance cards are suitable for one or the other team. They are marked by symbolic graphics with the Millennium Falcon and the Star Destroyer. When we take those belonging to the opposite group, there is a high risk that something bad will happen, and when we find ours, they become Power Cards that we can keep and use as an aid in the further game. We also receive a few of these special cards at the beginning of the game. In addition, an interesting option are the SuperTravel fields, which allow you to get to any free planet in a given zone or the next one, if all the bases have already been built in the current zone. The duel ends when there are no more free bases, which makes the game much faster than in the traditional oneMonopoly where it can go on for hours. The previously mentioned Power Cards also add dynamics, which can unexpectedly completely reverse the situation on the board. I definitely recommend this game to both co-op and Star Wars fans. – Aga Bot
