Monopoly is a game I wish would just fade out of existence. I say this both as a game collector, and a Local Game Shop owner.
But why?
Because it’s one of those games that would much better be replaced for its main use case. Imagine if something like catan filled the same cultural role of “game you play when family is over”
Monopoly is long, victory is ensured early and finished slowly
If played with no house rules, monopoly is a quick game. And I would much rather a Dune Catan game. Star Trek Catan is a fun variant.
If i find that be sure i'll post it here.
