Toys and Games Reviews of MonopolyŽ SpongeBob SquarePants? Edition
Customer Review: Great version of monopoly
Summary: 5 Stars
I really like this version of monopoly. The Spongebob theme makes gameplay exciting. I can't say that I have ever watched an entire episode of spongebob -- I don't even watch TV -- but I get a kick out of the craziness of spongebob.
Instead of dollars you use clams. It's still just paper monopoly money but I actually prefer the paper money to the electronic banking edition. I can see how it would slow game play if you have to wait for young ones to count money but I think children learning to count money is more important than a fast game any day. Playing with people in my age group (mid 20's), the paper money doesn't really slow us down. There is also a little rack in which to sort the money which is very nice.
The spaces on the board (with the exception of the corner spaces) have new and exciting names. I'm always battling for ownership of the Weiner Hut. The life preserver (chance) and treasure chest cards have the same effects as in the original monopoly but again are in the style of spongebob.
The game pieces in this set are amazing. All of the main spongebob characters are there. The pieces are LARGE and durable as opposed to some versions of monopoly. The Pineapple Houses (houses) and Krusty Crab Restaurants (hotels) are plastic but seem durable and add to the overall theme.
I really enjoy the plankton coin rule. When my girlfriend and I play it, we use the rule that when you land on a property with the coin you either 1) get the property for free or 2) pay twice the rent BUT we don't use the rule that the game ends when the coin reaches go. When it's only the two of us playing, the game is always over before the coin makes it all the way around anyway.
The game board is the only downfall in this version of monopoly. The board itself is beautiful but it is folded in four (half and then half again). This leaves a fault line down one half of the board which is a pain if you are not playing on a level surface. I'm also worried about the longevity of the board with all of its creases.
I found Spongebob Monopoly on sale at Toys R Us for about half of what it costs on Amazon. I would recommend this game to those of you who want a cool take on monopoly regardless of whether or not you actually watch the show.
