My husband and I used to love playing board games, that is, until we had children. Now, it's hard to find enough time, and a quick game is just what we need. This game presupposes a previous knowledge of Monopoly, suggesting that those who love the original will like this one, too. It is primarily about rolling the dice, and involves no money (which was a bit of a disappointment). On the plus side, not having Monopoly money to play with makes us less competitive and more apt to enjoy the game in a friendly fashion. I would definitely recommend it, and we plan to buy the Scrabble version, too.

I normally go for games that a a little more cerebral but it's hard to find games that you can take anywhere or play with anyone. Basically this is a dice version of monopoly that is point based. You set a point total and first to reach it wins. Small enough that it can be played on the food tray of an airplane seat or in the back seat of a car. Dice aren't easily lost because the container the game come in is also where you roll the dice into. I've played this with adults and children alike, young children stand to learn some math skills from adding the point totals and playing the odds. Only drawback to the game is that the rules for some rare situations in the game should be clarified but it isn't a deal breaker.

This game was a lot of fun, but explaining the rules took a pretty decent chunk of time. Make sure you have a sheet of scrap paper to keep track of your scores though!
