Features:
Monopoly for your Game Boy Advance is a great way to enjoy the thrills of controlling the businesses of an entire town -- and maintaining it against your competition! Buy streets, put up houses and hotels, control the railroads and utilities and create a monopoly where you control the town.
Product Description: Mr. Monopoly is your master of ceremonies as Atlantic City comes to life. For the first time on Game Boy® Advance, you will see what Boardwalk really looks like and watch your tokens hop, skip, and dance around the board. From the rolling lawns of Park Place to the lowly backyards of Baltic Avenue, you'll be entertained as you try to bankrupt your opponents and stay out of jail!
MONOPLY FOR THE BORED This game offers few of the basic fun things about playing monoply. Although there is a "CUSTOM GAME", you cannot alter the time limit. There is a "TIME LIMIT GAME" but you change the time from 1-24 hours but nothing else.
However, this game is fine for those places such as the doctor's office. And there is another weird thing about this game. No winner is declared. It simply says "GAME OVER"
Gameplay/Dice Rolling Is Too Slow I read all the reviews on Amazon and decided to get the game anyway because it was cheap. Overall, the slowness of the gameplay makes the game unplayable. Every time you roll the dice the screen animates to follow the dice rolling, moves back to your gamepiece, and then follows it as it moves to each spot (10-12 seconds). Playing the game in person or on other systems (Gameboy, PC), dice rolling takes around 5 seconds. That sounds pretty picky to break it down by the second but just imagine a normal game of Monopoly taking twice as long because of dice rolling. That's what you get with this game.
If anyone disagrees, please post a review about how you enjoy watching dice roll and pieces moving for 45 minutes of a 90 minute game. (No, you cannot turn off the animation.)
Fun game to play on your own Great price for a classic game. Easy to use/learn. You won't find some amazing graphics on it that you would expect from some games contemporary but you don't need them since this is a board game. It gaves you a cool break when playing some other more addivtive games that take more time to finish.
Too confusing to finish one game I have tried for HOURS to completely finish 1 SINGLE GAME. I have tried to trade more than once, and NOTHING HAPPENS. After trying to trade, i get frusterated, and don't feel like playing anymore. If I didn't have to deal with that, this game would be easier.
TERRIBLE This is hands down the WORST port of monopoly I have ever encountered.
monopoly is rarely a game enjoyed by small children, so why not give us more options?!
I don't need stupid animations for movement, the game is SOOO SLOWW.. I'd like to finish TODAY! and to add insult to that, there is NO SAVE FEATURE.
