4.0 out of 5 stars Review for Princess Monopoly Jr, - not Spinning Wishes or Dress Up!, December 3, 2005

This review is from: Monopoly Junior Disney Princess (Toy)

For some crazy reason, Amazon is currently mixing reviews for Disney Princess Monopoly Jr, Spinning Wishes, and Dress Up games. All three games are listed as "variations" of the others, and the reviews for all 3 games are included under each game. It is QUITE confusing. So to be perfectly clear, this review is for the Disney Princess Monopoly Junior game ONLY!

This is a very nice game, especially for the princess set. We have had limited success in interesting our 5 year old daughter in board games, but the appeal of the Disney Princesses is working to create excitement for this game.

The board is about half the size of a traditional Monopoly board, and the properties are all princess related, like Flounder & Eric versus Oriental & Connecticut. A game of luck instead of skill, the players purchase any un-owned property they land on, and play until someone runs out of money. You spend money when you buy property, pay rent to another property owner, or land on the dreaded Ursula or Maleficient! Collect money by passing go or getting rent. Playing pieces are cardboard cutouts of the princesses (Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, Little Mermaid, Jasmine, Snow White, Belle, Mulan & Pocohantas) instead of hats, dogs or thimbles. No houses or hotels here - just castles in pastel colors. Land on the Magic Carpet or Cinderella's coach for an extra turn. Who knows what will happen when you land on Chance - free properties, taxes, or trips to see Ursula or Maleficient.

The main educational aspect is counting. You count spaces as you move around the board, and count money as you buy property, pay rent, or pay fines. Reading is not really necessary. Like the original Monopoly, there are a lot of pieces to this game - castles, playing pieces & stands, money and chance cards. Pick up is an important part of the process.

The only negatives are the playing pieces and the money. The pieces don't stay in their stands very well, and can fall out when you're moving around the board. Inconvenient, but livable. The money is quite odd, because the demoninations are $1, $2, $3, $4, and $5. It's a little strange explaining to your child that there aren't any "real" $4 bills! I assume the denominations are low to make the counting easier, but it is weird.

Bottom line is that Monopoly Jr is a good game to start your younger kids on, and the princesses just add to the good time. We're happy to have this game in our closet.

3.0 out of 5 stars Princess edition Monopoly Jr., August 13, 2006

By 

G's mom "G's mom" (Texas) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Monopoly Junior Disney Princess (Toy)

My daughters really loved the princess concept of the game. The cards are easy to use and the castles are fun to own. The down-side is that the actual game board is too small. When 4 girls are trying to move their pieces around the board it becomes too crowded. Just trying to keep the board steady is a job. If two players land on the same space its hard to keep them both on that space until the next turn. All in all, my daughters and niece ranging from ages 5-9 enjoyed the game. As the game "helper" I wish the board were larger and heavier!

I am almost nineteen years old, and my mom and I think this game is fun. It's like regular Monopoly, except you go to Lunch instead of to Jail. Instead of buying property, you buy castles of pink, peach, blue, or lavendar for the characters. If you land on Ursula or Maleficent, you have to pay $2. Instead of Railroads, you have Rides that you don't buy; they are a chance to roll again.
