New Kindle Game - MONOPOLY

MONOPOLY ($4.99 $2.49), is a brand new Kindle game from Electronic Arts. Since it has been released on the first day of the 1/2 Price Sale for EA games, you can also get it for $2.49 thru the end of the year. Finally, I can be the little doggy or the race car (pieces long since lost by a little brother on the game we played growing up). You can even modify the rules, somewhat (although nothing like some of the large scale cheating my uncle used to do, although trading and auctions seem to be allowed).

The game starts with a tutorial and you do have to wait a bit after clicking the 5-way controller for the screen to update (or it might just flash by and go to the next message), but the game seems quite playable IF you have good eyesight or play on the DX.

Book Description
Enjoy the original MONOPOLY board game on your Kindle.

You can play against your Kindle or with a combination of up to 3 friends with Pass 'N Play multiplayer. Choose between 3 different difficulty levels for your opponents - Easy, Medium, and Hard. You can even customize your house rules to change how Free Parking, Taxes, Get Out of Jail and other rules work within your game.

Featuring all the classic properties like Park Place and Boardwalk, you can buy, sell, and build houses and hotels all around the MONOPOLY board.
