Had this game for a while now. Easy to learn and fun to play. Tokens are very cute and well-made! It is quite big (just as big as normal monapoly.
Although it is so easy to still a property and win the game so scrabble sometimes doesnt feel like it plays a huge role to win. It’s more about how lucky you are at drawing cards.

Sub par quality of actual game components
Fun concept. Instructions are straightforward. Game board quality is sub par for the price. It’s not going to last very long. There is nowhere to store each of the components. The cards, the cash are all going to get mixed together. The tile holders aren’t even sanded, somebody is going to get a sliver! I wouldn’t pay more than $20 for it.

Fun & Unique! Highly recommend!
Def a 5 star game! We have been having fun with this one and playing it a lot. Each game takes us around an hour. Doesn’t take forever to play like traditional Monopoly. This is more like Scrabble with a twist, so Scrabble fans should enjoy it especially.
I love the different game play of this. There is some strategy to it. The longest or highest scoring word possible isn’t necessarily the best play. You might prefer to play what would traditionally be a lower scoring word to strategically land on free parking, chance, avoid paying rent, etc.
Also, it’s fun the bank has letters anyone can buy. It gives you more options for what kind of words you can make and gives more opportunities for longer words (if playing longer words is in your best interest and doesn’t put your most coveted properties at risk.
This is def a good one & a new fav addition to our game collection. Highly recommend!

Fun game
Interesting take on Monopoly and scrabble. Basically just play a game of Scrabble like normal but you get to move around pieces and collect properties. If you’re not a huge fan of one or the other, this might be the way to bridge the gap.

A little strategy, a little chance
I don’t have much experience with real Monopoly but i hear the game can go long. I like that this game is short, has an end point, and allows you to control your game pieces movements. They may need a timer for people like me who are monitoring their Scrabble word count to calculate their moves.

Broken tile holder
The game looks like a good time, but I was disappointed to find one of the tile holders had a big chip out of it. I think it is still usable, but not good quality control.

Best idea ever!
My pre-teens love it as much as parents & grandparents. Each game a classic on its own but whoever thought was a good idea to combine them is a genius. Fun to play. Easy to learn. Great value for the money.

A fun new twist on the classics
As a long time Scrabble lover and Monopoly hater, I can say this game is super fun. Mainly because it plays faster than either of the originals. On the Scrabble end there will be no more sitting around with bad letters, there is now a 7 tile tray of community tiles that you can buy for the low price of $100. Which makes it a lot quicker to come up with quality words. On the Monopoly side this game will end, in fact it only takes about an hour or so to play. There is no more buying properties and managing rentals, instead you win the property based on where you place your Scrabble word. You don't have to wait for all the other players to go bankrupt, the game simply ends when the Scrabble tiles are out.
Besides it being faster, I found it to be more exciting than either of it predicessors. This is mostly because of the huge swings that can occur each turn. You could literally win 3 of your opponents properties with the right word placement and community cars. It is often hard to tell who is going to win because things change so much each time. At times this is frustrating, but it's all part of the fun. Probably the best part about this is that it levels the field a bit, so the same person doesn't win every time.
Aside from the game play it was a quality game. It has a good gaming board with quality metal Monopoly pieces, wooden tiles, and nice cards.
If I had to be picky I would say that it's a little short on the money. I resolved this at my house by playing with real money. 🤣 JK, we use a tally mark system for players passing go instead of giving out the 2G.
At the end of the day this is a fun new twist on some old classics. I would recommend it to any gamer.

Fun, Fast, & Strategic!
Playing Scrabble words has never been so strategic! Beside the user double/triple letter/word spaces to contend with, you have to pick up the color group spaces and block your competitors from stealing them away from you! Really fun combination of two iconic games. Plays fast with lots of laughs!

So much fun!
This game sort of surprised my family. We've never really played a game that combines two games into one game before, but it totally works. You start your turn by making a word on the Scrabble part of the board. If your word goes over a color group you take that color group title deed. The value of your word is how many spaces you move your piece on the Monopoly board. Then you do whatever that space says. So it really is both games in one. The cool thing is, it's not always about making the biggest word, you want to be smart and make a word that will put your token on the space you really want to land on. If you can do that you're golden. Later on, if someone else makes a word that covers a color group you own, they take it from you, but then you can take it back if you make another word later on that covers the color group again!
Very fun. My wife, parents and my nephews (11 an 14) all really like this game. Definitely recommended!
