Remember playing the Monopoly Board Game when you were a child?
Then when it came out on PS2, that was just like WOW!
(well, maybe not).
Now it has hit the internet, and the entire world is playing.
Yes, this is Monopoly using Google Maps.
Before I get started on how to play the game, let me give you some background information.
It has been live since the 9th of September.
It is an online game that loads entirely in your surfing app.
There is nothing to download and you only need to register to get to play it.
This is to ensure that every knows what they are doing and how to use it.
So get your hands on it while you still can!
Playing the Game
To play the game, simple go tothis websiteand choose ‘Play’.
Then just find a street you would like to buy, anywhere in the world.
Since the game has been running for a while, all the good streets are taken.
So find an area that you like, and expand from there.
Most of the world is playable, but there are a few exceptions.
Since I am located in Melbourne, I am going to start my street purchases there.
You may also have noticed that we have not registered yet.
it’s possible for you to do this when you purchase your first street.
I am going to purchase Springvale Rd.
So just find it on the map, then punch the street name in the box on the right.
Once you punch the street you want to purchase, a registration box will appear.
You also get M$3,000,000 in Monopoly money to spend.
Now, I want to build on the street.
Since I am not rich, I will start of small.
I am just going to buy a small City Centre Cottage.
Fortunately, I still have heaps of cash left.
I am going to buy another street in the area.
I found a good long stretch of road and now I am going to develop it.
Your buildings will now appear.
I hope that I have inspired you to play.
I better get in early and buy up big when it starts again in a week’s time.
If you want to play, just go tothe main page, start buying and building an earning.
