Monopoly Electronic Banking Edition (London UK)

Love it, love it! Ok you might have guessed I really like this version. Having to play Monopoly with three children under the age of eleven, with paper money can be quite challenging. Just the space you need and all the adding up for every transaction for each of the players. My elder daughter got this version via Father Christmas this year and we have played it three days running. Even my four year old loves the credit card concept. It's taken all the hassle out and just the enjoyment remains. As no one knows how much the other player has, it also reduces any jealousy during the game. The "services" and place names are also much more relative than the original version, (as are the taxation charges and lottery wins!) Only one problem.... Be careful who you elect to be the banker, because we have had incidents where they do NOT play by the rules!!! In short, electronic banking monopoly + younger kids.... Worth every penny!

We bought this game,as a family game for christmas, but christmas came early, too many cold and wet afternoons!!! We have played this game again and again, we really haven't missed all the sorting of money etc.The only downside to this game is, that if your family get impatient when playing, you really do need a seperate banker! It is quite educational, even though it uses credit cards and a calculator/card machine, it still teaches the basics of money ie; if you haven't got it, don't spend it! It really is a great version of the classic, with a modern twist. Also with the box we had you had a chance to win £1000!!

Received item All look OK at first sight but unfortunately on further inspection disappointed to find no figures to play game

It's a nice twist to the regular game, but to be honest, my family missed the social aspect of exchanging banknotes. Most of the game is spent typing numbers in to this machine, waiting for it to do it's thing, and faffing around with bankcards... in an age where we're all addicted to our gadgets and touch-screens, this game didn't have the relaxing effect the traditional version did. ... for those of you who like to bend the rules a bit, this option is gone. ... there were so few houses and hotels with this game that we had to raid an old monopoly set for more. I don't think we'll be playing it again.

Obviously a very attractive game for two girls aged 11 and 8. The credit cards and the "calculator" are good fun and very high tech. As only a recent purchase, no idea yet how durable the calculator will be. Also, no maths practice for the banker as they don't have to use their brain as the calculator does all the hard work. The increase in prices and the different streets for sale is amusing for the old parents!

I bought this at xmas, as a present to all of us. It is soooo much easier, without all the money lying round, of course the man of the house wanted to be the banker! But within minutes was bored of the idea of putting cards in n out of the machine, n giving em back to the right person, as the game moves a lot quicker, seen as there is actually no passing money around the board. We all thoroughly enjoyed playing this version, as I hated monopoly, just because of the setup time, and sorting all the money out, i'd be bored before we started, but this is a lot easier. Highly recommended to any Monopoly fan!

I bought this game to see the Electronic Banking, I have all my adult children at home, anyway 3 of them and myself sat down to play, it was great, no paper money to add up and lose,got them off the computers for 4 hours, it was great Family fun. A WINNER. I'm really glad I bought it.

I bought this for my son who works for a merchant bank in the City and is someone who embraces new technology and gadgets! He loves to play Monopoly when the family all get together and as it was his 30th birthday and we were having a big family party weekend, that seemed an ideal gift for him. Five of them played and said they all enjoyed it, but that it was a bit full on to be the banker and also a player. I had read this comment in a previous review when I was deciding which version to buy, but am glad I bought this one anyway as it seemed so appropriate for him. It will definitely come out again at the next family occasion!
