Fun
The game is nice. You have to read the instructions to understand how to play but it's easy to understand. It's not the traditional Monopoly set. No money but credit cards. One die. Not 2. Matching property are 2 spaces not 3. The game is not as long because the banking unit will announce the winner once others are in the negative. It keeps track of balances etc. It's definitely fun and set up for kiddos and fun for adults who want to play with the little ones.If there is a downside I would say the game does not have the miniature houses for the property. Instead they use these cardboard cut with pics of each piece (cat, car,dog and boat. See Pic). Those cardboard pieces do not fit neatly on the owned property and so they either move about a bit or when the die is thrown it lands on them and moves them or causes the die to be canted. Hard to explain but it doesn't take away from the fun.

Fun and easy to learn
This game is super fun and perfect for the recommended ages. My son is 5.5 and he loved it and caught onto how to play quickly.The game definitely ends fast if you buy up all the properties on your first trip around (as we’re used to doing in the original), so take your time with that. Perhaps that changes when more than two players are playing though.The automatic banking is easy for kids to understand and fun.

Better with slight modifications...
I would have given this a 5 star, however, my husband and I made some slight modifications to improve the design after playing a round with our 6 year old daughter.First, the bank does not have an on/off switch. It will go to sleep after 5 minutes of inactivity, however, it seems like a waste of energy. As a result, we added a switch to the unit, which is relatively quick and easy for anyone with experience in electronics that has an extra switch and a soldering iron handy. Also nice if anyone rage quits and you would like to save juice in the batteries.Second, the pieces that are used to claim property are easily moved, which gets annoying. To resolve, we placed flat magnetic strips above each property and put 1/8th inch neodymium magnets on each piece. Maybe overkill, but the board can be held upside down to accommodate fits of rage that are inherent with any game of monopoly.The last modification was creating chance card holders (one for unused chance cards and one for used chance cards). I used a cardboard piece that came inside the game that was useless and served no purpose. I made the cardboard useful by fashioning two chance card sized boxes out of it. You guessed it, it is also magnetized to the board to prevent any movement in game. One slight issue is that the cards will fall out if board is held upside down, however, the game is likely over at that point.All in all, it’s a decent game for children. I would recommend any and all of the solutions above if you would like to maintain your sanity during the game.

Fun kids game
I love this game for my 7 year old. My son has been asking to play regular monopoly which is hard for him to do and so long!! I bought this for Christmas and it is faster to play, easy to play & the banking is also easy to use. We edited the rules a bit to play but we still like this game. I would recommend. The kids can also play it alone fine (age 7&9).

Smartest game of Monopoly
When I grew up Monopoly was banned from our house because of the viciousness it brought out among family members. When Monopoly was introduced to my children, I was skeptical. However, I bought this version for my children. This version is fantastic. Not only is the little card reader thing ingenious, but some of the nuances of the rules also take out the cruel aspect of the game. All my children played, learned about capitalism, and left smiling.
