Introduction

Ah, Monopoly. The game that never fails to turn friends into bitter enemies, while also exposing just how bad they are at math. Monopoly Plus on PS4 invites you to relive this iconic experience, except now you can do it all from the comfort of your couch-and not have to deal with any of that pesky cardboard or paper money. What could possibly go wrong?

Gameplay

Gameplay in Monopoly Plus is, as expected, a digital reflection of the board game where you can either enjoy a solo experience with AI opponents or lovingly destroy your friends in local or online multiplayer mode. You roll the dice, move your token like you've just won the lottery, and then declare your love for capitalism by buying up properties faster than a kid devours candy at Halloween. Importantly, you can choose which version of Monopoly you want to play, from the classic rules to house rules that include 'free parking' and 'negotiations that could last longer than the last movie in the Avengers franchise.' Do without the hassle of retrieving fallen game pieces from the floor like a game of Tetris, as everything happens in neat and tidy 3D.

Graphics

Let's take a moment to acknowledge the visuals. Monopoly Plus is nothing short of a pastel dream, with colorful 3D-rendered tokens, properties, and the option to shake your fancy virtual dice like you're at a real casino, if the casino only had plastic hotels instead of the chance to lose your savings. The animations of the tokens moving around the board are more lively than your excitement during your 10-hour binge-watching session of a Netflix series. And let's not forget the 'My Monopoly' mode where you can create your custom boards, potentially leading to a unique experience like watching a 'selfie' filter gone wrong at a bar.

Conclusion

In conclusion, Monopoly Plus is the sort of game that serves up nostalgia with a side of fierce competition. It's easily accessible, visually appealing, and allows for more arguments than your last family get-together. Just remember not to take it too personally when your friend declares bankruptcy right as they attempt to give you a heartfelt hug and your other friend with the 'I bought Boardwalk' token snickers while drinking from their overpriced cocktail. In the end, it's Monopoly, with all the charm of squabbling like children over who gets the last slice of pizza. Grab some buddies, dive in, and prepare for a night to remember-or perhaps forget, because you might have had just a bit too much wine playing Monopoly and letting it all go south.
