Monopoly Ghostbusters Board Game

Product Information

Finally, there are new Supernatural Entity spaces that have replaces the utilities, income tax and luxury tax. If you land on one of these spaces, you and the player to your left have to battle the specter on the board. Each of you roll one die, and if your combined roll is the same or higher as the number listed on the space, you win and collect a certain amount of cash. If you don't roll high enough, you own the bank money.

FOR GHOSTBUSTERS FANS: Win contracts, bust ghosts, save the city! The Monopoly game: Ghostbusters Edition is an awesome game for Ghostbusters fans, ages 8 and upThese new elements don't remarkably change the game, but it's a nice change of pace from the usual Monopoly re-releases that are the exact same as the original Monopoly. MONOPOLY GAME: GHOSTBUSTERS EDITION: There's something strange in the neighborhood and you got the call! This game features artwork, tokens, and themes based on the original Ghostbusters movie Have you ever dreamed of battling Slimer on the streets of Manhattan or putting Stay Puft (aka "The Giant Marshmallow Man") in his place? Do your kids have imaginary battles with library ghosts and refuse to run from the roaming vapor that seeps out of city sidewalks? Monopoly: Ghostbusters Edition is here to shake up family game night, and the only way it could be any cooler is if the board played the movie's iconic theme song. (Because "I ain't afraid of no ghost" should be everyone's daily mantra.) This edition of Monopoly features Roaming Vapor cards, and ECTO-1 and Supernatural Entity spaces on the gameboard

They have done the cheap way of making a licensed Monopoly spin-off, they got cheeky by changing just enough to make it different but leave so much of the original gameplay that everyone knows it. So I absolutely hate Monopoly, (perfect way to start a review amirite) always have as it encourages cheating and the first person to play has a huge advantage and so on. Anyway, I bought Ghostbusters Monopoly because Ghostbusters is awesome and because Fortnite monopoly was so good it swung me around to the possibility that these licensed spin-off games could be good. Hasbro seems to have learned their lesson from not including Rey in one of the Star Wars: The Force Awakens versions of Monopoly. That's why Dana Barrett's cello and Janine Melnitz's glasses are included instead of more iconic Ghostbusters paraphernalia like the Ecto-1, Slimer, and the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man, all pieces that were included in the old edition of Ghostbusters Monopoly.

I came away dissatisfied and disappointed with it all, the game went on far too long, the game just dragged with the boss fights to be boring and never felt worth the effort. OK, so the player pieces were alright but again bare minimum. The hotels and that were just containment units and ghost traps. It was just all too simple and unappealing. Landing on a Supernatural Entity space has players teaming up to battle Slimer, Stay Puft, Library Ghost, or Vinz Clortho to save the city!
