For purists, MONOPOLY Streets will offer classic game board modes, as well. The game will also feature player-owned headquarters that rise and fall along with the Player’s fortunes – large and luxurious when winning, stunted and minuscule when losing. Developing properties within high rent districts will produce lavish houses and hotels that appear within the world and further substantiate its visual appeal, while developing in the less expensive areas provide more modest, but no less interesting, establishments.

The other thing that can put you off this game is the way it produces alert windows whenever it's the computer's turn to play so you find yourself reading alerts like 'Click on a property you would like to mortgage' and wondering for a few seconds if you have to do anything.In recognition of the MONOPOLY brand entertaining families around the globe for 75 years, MONOPOLY Streets will offer players the ability to become completely immersed within a MONOPOLY-themed world, re-imagined to experience the game at street level.

Whether you have memories of playing the board game on a rainy November day when there's nothing else to do, or with friends and family around a warming fire, this is a game we've all played. There's no chance of that with this game. The game's makers Hasbro state that the longest game ever played took 70 days. Thankfully though unlike the board game, computerised versions of the popular board game don't go on indefinitely. As with the board game your aim is to monopolise the board so that the other players have to pay you. Monopoly has been available to play on computers since 1985 when it was released for the BBC Micro, Amstrad CPC and ZX Spectrum. As a video game that can be played one player, a lot of the annoyance of being beaten to a favourite property is removed because you can restart without looking like a really bad sport.
