The Monopoly: Despicable Me Edition is, despite its name, a Monopoly Junior edition released by Hasbro in 2013 and centered around the movie Despicable Me 2 and its irrepressible Minions. Sajnos engem a játék nem nagyon fogott meg. "Aki szereti a Gru/Mignon-os filmeket, az tuti ezt is fogja", láttam így hirdetve nagyon sokszor, sok helyen. Az a baj, hogy amíg a filmek érdekesek, lekötnek, van benne sok akció, történés, vicces, sokoldalú, az egész családnak való, addig a játékrók ezek majdhogynem semennyire nem elmondhatóak.

Landing on the space marked “Go to Jail.” The player goes diagonally across the board to the jail space without passing GO, and their turn ends immediately.When a player has four houses on each property of a complete colour-group, they may buy a hotel from the Bank and erect it on any property of the colour-group. They return the four houses from that property to the Bank and pay the price for the hotel as shown on the Title Deed card. Only one hotel may be erected on any one property. In making this settlement, if you own houses or hotels, you must return these to the Bank in exchange for money to the extent of one-half the amount paid for them.This cash is given to the creditor. If you have mortgaged property you also turn this property over to your creditor but Go to jail when you’re instructed to. Going to jail prevents you from moving around the board until you're free, but you still can collect rent, buy houses, participate in auctions, and trade with other players. There are three possible ways to go to jail: [17] X Research source player games: these take the longest to play, and there’s going to be a lot of time between turns. However, it can feel like you’re at a real disadvantage if you’re one of the last players to go.

The new owner who does this may then, at their option, pay the principal or hold the property until some later turn, then lift the mortgage. If they hold property in this way until a later turn, they must pay the interest again upon lifting the mortgage. Sajnos a többi grafikai/design rész nem túl megnyerő, például hogy a kártyák színe nem egyezik meg a táblán lévő színekkel. the new owner must at once pay the Bank the amount of interest on the loan, which is 10% of the value of the property. Set a time limit to determine the winner (optional). If you want a faster game, try setting a timer for 1 or 2 hours. When the timer goes off, each player counts their total amount of money, the printed prices of all their unmortgaged properties, half the prices of all their mortgaged properties, and the printed prices of all houses and hotels. The richest player wins the game! [19] X Research sourceIn this short game, it is necessary to have only three houses (instead of four) on each lot of a complete colour-group before the player may buy a hotel.

The player who initially declined to buy the property at the printed price can still participate in the auction. Most players recommend buying every property you can, since you win by building a real estate empire. If you throw doubles, you move your token as usual, the sum of the two dice, and are subject to any privileges or penalties pertaining to the space on which you land. Retaining the dice, throw again and move your token as before. If you throw doubles three times in succession, move your token immediately to the space marked "In Jail". It is an advantage to hold all the Title Deed cards in a color-group (i.e., Boardwalk and Park Place, or Connecticut, Vermont and Oriental Avenues) because the owner may then charge double rent for unimproved properties in that colour-group. This rule applies to unmortgaged properties even if another property in that colour-group is mortgaged.A Monopoly: Despicable Me 2 egy nagyon könnyen tanulható társasjáték, 2 - 4 játékos részére, az átlagos játékidő hosszú, akár 15 - 180 perc is lehet. A társas elsősorban gyerekeknek készült, akár már 5 éves kortól is játszható. A játékmenet erősen épít a forgass és mozgass mechanizmusra. If you are not "sent to jail" but in the ordinary course of play lands on that space, you are "Just Visiting", you incur no penalty, and you move ahead in the usual manner on your next turn. You still are able to collect rent on your properties because you are "Just Visiting".

It is even more advantageous to have houses or hotels on properties because rents are much higher than for unimproved properties. The owner may not collect the rent if they fail to ask for it before the second player following throws the dice. Select one player to be the banker. The banker hands out deeds, makes change, and distributes money to other players. You do not have to buy a property if you don’t want to; it may be ideal to skip a property if you’re saving up cash to buy properties or something like that.

Select as Banker a player who will also make a good Auctioneer. A Banker who plays in the game must keep their personal funds separate from those of the Bank. When more than five persons play, the Banker may elect to act only as Banker and Auctioneer.
