The game was released to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the Monopoly board game.[1]
The gameplay at its core is not too dissimilar from the original board game it was based on, but the board is presented as a living, breathing city,[2] with there being pictural illustrations of each of the properties being constructed as they are bought, with designs based on the economic status of the surrounding area.[3] Elements such as auctions are done with streamlined and automated systems. Achievements can be unlocked for the player to gain access to new pieces and boards.[4]
The game received a Metacritic rating of 64% (PlayStation 3),[5] 66% (Xbox 360),[6] and 65% (Wii).[7] Meanwhile, the game received a GameRankings rating of 64.11% (PlayStation 3),[8] 67.22% (Xbox 360),[9] and 64.29% (Wii).[10]
IGN reviewer Colin Moriarty scored the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions a 7.5, but scored the Wii version a full point lower due to the lack of "online functionality".[11]
