This version of the monopoly is actually very different then regular monopoly, it's not just cosmetic changes, you don't build say houses or campsites.

So, it is a d&d game that isn't d&d using the Monopoly property but it isn't actually Monopoly?
Oh Hasbro, you be you.

Could have tweaked parking to be a horse or chariot!!

Yeah that's my one complaint, the car parking spot looks stupid here.

Almost sounds like Talisman.

All of the corner squares still use the original art, and they all look out of place.

That doesnt sound like Monopoly at all. But of course they have to have a hook to sale it to the normies.

I think the 4 corners are copyrighted or trademarked to designate it as Hasbro IP.

I heard that the original four corners have to be present for trademark purposes, identifying it as Monopoly. It does seem weird to have a car and a stylized 20th century police officer with a whistle on the board.

Well this is interesting. It's definitely Monopoly(TM)-adjacent. Go around the board, collecting adventures. But it sounds like instead of buying them you have to randomly defeat them to acquire them. There's definitely money tho - in the form of gold coins.

Hm. I'm not exactly sure how I feel about this. On the one hand I actually do like it when Hasbro or one of their subsidiaries plays with existing old games to come up with something new. Their Risk variants over the years have been fun, for example. But on the other hand it is Monopoly. It's hard to think of another boardgame I'd be less excited to play a variant of.
