Monopoly Tycoon 2007 - Image 1 


All of you millionaires-in-training out there, here's a good news: Hands-on Mobile's Monopoly Tycoon 2007 has already been launched in London. There are now more opportunities to bankrupt Ollie, Gertrude, and Arthur as this sequel to Monopoly Tycoon boasts of new features: you can now employ managers to help run day-to-day properties, the graphics are more realistic, you can take control of other new businesses, and there is also an added community chest and chance cards, like in the real board game.

While we have never played Monopoly on a board game (way beyond our time!) we have always had Monopoly Tycoon on our cellphones. Others give the game a rating of "fair", and we think it plays pretty decently; a handy time-killer on a long commute or in the waiting room.

The new version, says PocketGamer.co.uk, plays more like Sim City on a smaller scale. In this turn-based business strategy game, you can specify how many floors to include in a department store, conduct surveys to determine the demand for a particular service, or adjust prices. It also has a built-in online multi-player option.

Pocket Gamer recommends that if you've already played the original, the upgrade is just similar. Still, it'll be a good management game to first-time players, casual or otherwise. It will also be interesting to see what you will think of it.
