We were excited to have Monopoly Speed as we are big monopoly fans traditionally. The game was quick to set up and the instructions were clear, and we were into gameplay very quickly! The gameplay itself is a little bit manic, and we were keen to try different "win" tactics - which we are still exploring! It's definitely a game that is easy to understand and perhaps helps bridge that gap between Junior and Adult monopoly. Although gameplay is repetitive it's also brief, and we are happy to play several rounds at a time. We would have liked to see more variation in the chance cards, particularly when there is only two of us playing, and the trading sections are perhaps a little long for two players but we can see how they are needed for larger groups. A maximum of four players is a little restrictive we felt, especially as our games are often bought out at family gatherings, but an enjoyable game none the less.
