Gameplay
I was shocked to see another Monopoly-themed game on the app store and had no idea how it would work. But sadly, it’s extremely similar to Coin Master. Coin Master was pretty popular a few years ago and it seems like Scopely has tried to cash in on it.
Despite being annoyed at the similarities, I actually much preferred Monopoly Go to Coin Master. In Coin Master, you have to spin a wheel to earn money and destroy people’s islands whereas, in this game, you have a Monopoly board.
Gameplay:
Roll the dice to earn money, attack people’s boards, or steal money from others. The goal is to level up your board before anyone else!
Graphics
The graphics were just standard for the type of game. I’m just happy the Monopoly Man looked somewhat normal.
Music & Sounds
The background music was exactly what I expected from a Monopoly game: calm until you’re about to cause chaos. It was perfect!
Controls
To control, tap the GO button at the bottom of the board and wait to see what you land on on the board. If you get fed up pressing the GO button, you can hold it down so the dice auto rolls. I like that it has an auto-roll option as this game can get pretty repetitive and boring when you tap a button every 3 seconds.
