Critic Reviews
Marooners' Rock
By Matt KowalskiOverall Monopoly Madness can be a fun game when playing with friends; however, playing the game solo can be an infuriating task based on how the AI plays. Rather than feeling fair and balanced, it seems like the AI has a vendetta against humans. Is Ubisoft secretly programming the upcoming terminators? Mr. Monooly’s voice lines will make you want to stop playing the game. The game would be better off without him or with more dialog lines. As a whole, the game is fun but not meant for all ages. Even those that love Monopoly will grow tired of this game after two hours. The game is fine to play for a short amount of time but it is a good idea to take breaks.
Rapid Reviews UK
By Joseph BarroodMonopoly Madness is a party game that is based on the intellectual property Monopoly but is completely different in terms of gameplay. Is the change exactly what the series needed to stay relevant in modern society? Find out in this Rapid Review.

By Sylvano WitteEveryone is familiar with the basic principle of Monopoly, having as many streets as possible in your possession. It's no different in Monopoly Madness. The only difference is that the way you do that consists of a lot of sucking, blowing and pushing another button every now and then. It's not a traditional Monopoly game and in this case it's a shame. Monopoly Madness is mostly boring and monotonous and can't keep you entertained for more than five to ten minutes.
Life is Xbox
By Dae JimChanging the typical slow-paced play from Monopoly into a fast-paced action brawler works surprisingly well.
