Slot Review: Monopoly Here and Now

There’s a reason why Monopoly is one of the most consistent best-sellers in the world of board games. The game, based on real-life locations in the town of Atlantic City, New Jersey, turns players of all ages into real estate moguls, and challenges them to make decisions that could either make them extremely wealthy (in terms of paper money, of course!), or land them in hock – or even jail! Monopoly Here and Now was introduced to celebrate the seventieth anniversary of this classic board game, with a few major differences. Players could now use a debit card to buy property, and the rent on the Boardwalk was more than fifty dollars! The Monopoly Here and Now online slot game is, likewise, an update to the original Monopoly slot machine title, which has been very popular with players.

Monopoly Here and Now is a five-reel, twenty-payline online slot machine title licensed by Hasbro to Wager Works. Unfortunately for Yanks, it is currently only available on British casino sites. Coin values range from one pence to ten pounds, with max coins of two hundred making the top bet a hefty two thousand pounds! The jackpot is five thousand coins, or fifty thousand pounds.

On the reels, you will see such classic Monopoly icons as: property, utilities, and airports (filling in for railroads!). Mr. Stanley, the little top-hatted gent that so many know simply as “the Monopoly guy,” is wild. With scatters, bonuses, and multipliers aplenty, this is a fully-loaded slot game! The bonus game even has you rolling the virtual dice to play a quick round of “real” Monopoly on a simulated board!
