Many games in our household ended in tears, Risk by far being the worst, and Monopoly was definitely in the top 5. It’s a game about capitalism, right? You have to go for the jugular!!!

I’m a bit of a purist about certain things, and I think Monopoly is great the way it is and shouldn’t be trifled with. The idea of adjusting the game length with U-Build is intriguing though. Loathe the idea of automatic scoring – that’s just wrong!!!

The problem with Monopoly is often how long the game goes on!

We played more cooperatively than cut-throat, but honestly? That just makes the game go longer!
