Fun with exception - Reviewed on 2008-10-29

Imagine the Monopoly board as a city. Each color is a city block with people walking around. You want to build retail stores, apartments and hotels to attract people to your block(s).

I really like this game. I find myself wanting to play it often but it is more for online play, its really limited for single player mode. Once you play through the AI challenges to unlock the freeplay/sandbox mode it takes away the AI computer players and you play all by yourself! This is a drag. No one to compete with, no one in the entire city but you, building away all by yourself. Online play of course replaces the AI players with actual people but I do not play online and I am disappointed in games that charge the same price but put all the fun in the online mode.

I like the game and wish I could play it more but get bored playing alone.
So it is 3 star fun but overall 2 star for no replay value.
However if you like online and enjoy competing to be the richest cat in town this game is for you.

This game was fun and exciting, it gave me the change to apply some of the things I was learning in ECON to real life, it also had an competitive aspect were you compete with the computer and its actaully a challenge!!! Played this game for hours while listening to Personal development, great game.

Great game...im a fanatic of the tycoon computer games...i find them to be very entertaining and they are a great way to pass the time....and real fast!!!....

Monopoly Tycoon is a good game...you can go for bronze, silver, and gold trophies for each scenario...

It has a very good tutorial within the game...it takes you through all of the features and you're ready to go once you go through the whole tutorial...

The first couple of scenarios are very short, but they serve to take you through the first steps so that you can get the hang of it...

Later on you play against up to 4 players, and it becomes harder but more exciting...the year doesnt end either...i had to go up to the year 2085 to win one time...so its great...the music is good too...

You get to create the store you want, set it at the price you want, build apartments, hotels, etc. Every couple of years more stores become unlocked and available for you to build...

An overall good game!
