Me and my friend got this game because we thought we could play continuously and save it overtime but turns out that’s not how it works. I can’t sit down and play a full monopoly game it would be very nice if you could pause it ### 2/5 — I WANT TO LOVE IT… *2026-08-28, version 1.15.25* … but this game is SO buggy. It feels like all the app development resources are sunk into Monopoly Go! If you toggle apps, let’s say to answer a text, this app will disconnect and have to reconnect. Essentially, you cannot leave the app at any point, even for a second. Also, there’s a HUGE problem with all the insane purchase options. You can only play with other people who are using the same board/map as you. So unless you’re someone that has sunk $24+ human dollars into this app, you’re stuck in the classic board lobby(it has very few real players). Almost every single game I’ve played has at least one obviously auto computer player, making the same impossibly fast trade offers every single turn. It’s incredibly annoying, and honestly not fun after a while. ### 3/5 — Honest review *2026-08-27, version 1.15.25* Good and the bad. Good: this is great for solo player and is fun when other friends buy the game. The gameplay and options to change rules adds a fun twist. I never really understood or played monopoly til this app and it helped me create strategies and play against AI bots. Bad: you buy the app for the very basics, all the rest of the game is pay to use. Any cool avatars or boards all come from paying more money. I wish this game had achievements, to keep players interested in the game. After after a week playing the game, I had surpassed the highest difficulty Ai bots, and knew how to manipulate the game. Unfortunately the game is limited by how much effort the developers want to put into the game from this point forward. I hope daily achievements and unlocking rewards for free can be added soon. Because players can easily start to bore themselves of the game if there’s nothing more than who wins an already long time committed game. ### 1/5 — Errors *2026-08-22, version 1.15.24* The game sometimes mistakenly uses different cards and different options like your in jail when you’re not ### 2/5 — Playing with friends *2026-08-19, version 1.15.24* You can play with friends and you can play online multiplayer but you can’t play with your friends online multiplayer. ### 3/5 — Great but absolutely RIGGED *2026-08-19, version 1.15.24* Game is fun and addicting BUT playing against AI (especially when there’s 2 if you have friend in a lobby) is so incredibly rigged. They do moves and turns that are mathematically impossible. This needs to be fixed ASAP. Otherwise a great game. ### 4/5 — Great adaption but some features to be desired *2026-08-18, version 1.15.24* For the price its been a great distraction to play, small vibrations when your turn is ready are great additions, small features like that help this a lot. However the game is lacking the idea of progression, maybe playing/winning would allow to unlock certain dice, boards, player pieces rather than all of them being locked behind paywalls. ### 1/5 — Can’t even launch the since last update… *2026-08-18, version 1.15.24* Before it was crashing at first launch the i could restart and launch the game. Reinstalled few times bu5 nothing changed. ### 1/5 — Cheaters *2026-08-18, version 1.15.24* Game is full of cheaters who when they realise they cannot win then decide to manipulate the game in someone else’s favour bu selling them all properties for 1 then buying back a property for whatever money they have left. Happens to much so waste of time playing I have deleted the app ### 1/5 — $$$$$$ *2026-08-17, version 1.15.24* Awful , $$$ needed for everything ### 1/5 — I bought it, it’s meh *2026-08-17, version 1.15.24* Please do not spend the money, in the moment it seems like a worthwhile investment, but in the end, you have to buy EVERYTHING, and the game LAGS ALL THE TIME, my internet is top tier and it still sucks. I’ve already began the process of getting my money back because a game this expensive should be completely free of junk like this. Do better Hasbro ### 1/5 — Cash grab *2026-08-17, version 1.15.24* So you pay 5 bucks thinking you get the full game, or at least the ability to by leveling up. Instead, you are prompted to spend money to unlock cosmetics and you even have to pay like 15 dollars to unlock a game mode. If you’re gonna charge money for these things then the base game should be free, or if the game is paid the additional items should be free to unlock. I’m deleting this app and refunding my $5 for this disgrace. ### 1/5 — Ok *2026-08-17, version 1.15.24* Game is fun but I wish they would make it possible within the game to level up and unlock boards instead of paying way too much on boards and tokens ### 1/5 — Game issue with bad trades *2026-08-16, version 1.15.24* In about half the games I play, a player will trade all their properties and money for nothing if it appears they may not win. Sometimes the player receiving the offer will reject it, as I do when it happens to me. However, when these types of trades are accepted it ruins the game. Whoever receives the trade will win just because another player got frustrated that they were unlucky or couldn’t devise a good/fair trade. It would be great if there was some feature that would automatically disallow heavily lopsided trades, or if there was some reporting mechanism so players that do this may be warned and/or have their account flagged/suspended at some point. I like playing this online, but the few players that operate like this ruin what are otherwise competitive games in about half the games I play. ### 1/5 — The game cheats *2026-08-16, version 1.15.24* Single player is useless unless you want to be on the losing end of a rigged game. It’s doesn’t even cheat creatively, it’s so pathetic. The amount of doubles the game rolls for itself is absurd. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Bad cpu *2026-08-30, version 1.15.25* No lucky! The machine helps a lot to earn in a very uncert way ### 1/5 — Reviews need to be made, and comments need to be engaged not just hat box *2026-08-30, version 1.15.25* dudes will have a fit and throw the game by trading everything to their buddy for a dollar just so you loose. should be a report button for cheating ### 1/5 — STILL RIGGED AF *2026-08-30, version 1.15.25* hate this game it’s loaded dice is so predictable ### 1/5 — Too slow *2026-08-28, version 1.15.25* Forces you to watch the animation for every AI turn. Takes far too long to get back to your turn you just sit there watching the other turns getting bored ### 1/5 — Fails *2026-08-28, version 1.15.25* Needs a review. To many bugs ### 1/5 — Constant crashes *2026-08-28, version 1.15.25* Game is fine and has some good features. However constant and various online multiplayer crashes are frequently disappointing and lead to wasted hours. For the most popular board game worldwide, it’s surprising and disappointing that a mobile app does not work properly and consistently. ### 1/5 — Greedy devs *2026-08-27, version 1.15.25* The store is ridiculous they say they give you the base game but in the custom game they put the speed die behind a 15$ pay wall last i remember it came with it last i played monopoly on my xbox and dont even get me started on the store the most expensive micro transactions for a mobile game ### 1/5 — Dice is fixed!! *2026-08-25, version 1.15.24* Love this game but it’s ruined by the dice being fixed! It’s so obvious that the dice is so predictable!! Really needs to be updated! It’s like the game itself scripted and has already picked a winner before the game ends!! Please please please update this!! And let the game go naturally! ### 1/5 — Does not allow to login *2026-08-25, version 1.15.24* The app seems to be stoped maintaining by developers as before. It doesn’t allow you to login to keep your scores and shows no wifi symbol after clicking on login a few time. ### 1/5 — AI is a joke *2026-08-23, version 1.15.24* You’ve destroyed what would have been a blissful family holiday. The randomiser in this game is appalling. I suggest get a grip of your coding on the AI jokers ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Always fun *2026-08-30, version 1.15.25* I enjoy this version of Monopoly because of the variety they have not only in the types of games you can play the changing of the rules, but also when playing online you get all types of competition all varieties of competition and I just love it. It’s fun sometimes I win sometimes I lose, but no matter what it’s always fun. They did really good with this game and I’m glad they fixed the glitches.. The game used to glitch whenever I got calls or I would leave the game to answer a text, but they fixed all that and it works perfect now I love it. ### 5/5 — Purchases *2026-08-29, version 1.15.25* I enjoy totally playing the game, but my iPad broke and I had to reinstall Monopoly. I had to pay all over again why ### 5/5 — Owe money *2026-08-23, version 1.15.24* In the game when a player lands on you and owe money and need to raises it instead of them needing to raise it to give it to you they can give all their assets and money to another player resulting in you getting none of the money they owe since they traded all of it to the other player. In the board game this is illegal and should be illegal on digital too ### 5/5 — Problemas *2026-08-22, version 1.15.24* Es bastante entretenido ### 5/5 — I love it here *2026-08-20, version 1.15.24* Good games ### 5/5 — YESSIR *2026-08-15, version 1.15.24* CUH my good sir this will be the best long term anti anxiety investment of 5 dollars you’ll make! Amen ### 5/5 — Monopoly was so good!!!!!!!!!! *2026-08-14, version 1.15.24* I didn’t know about Monopoly until I saw this game. It inspired me to keep playing and I now I really love it. ### 5/5 — Fun *2026-08-13, version 1.15.24* I love this game especially on the mobile phone it’s a very fun game to play and can be time efficient too ### 5/5 — Fantastic *2026-08-11, version 1.15.24* This is THE BEST version of electronic monopoly ON THE PLANET> PERIOD. Happy to buy packs from time to time just to support. It is the best way to play monopoly, literally better than the real board game. Even local play is better. It tracks everything for you, no banker needed - online? Say no more. Say more: This is DEFACTO the best monopoly experience you will ever have. ### 5/5 — Great game but… *2026-08-04, version 1.15.24* It is super fun like it is just like the board game but shorter which I love because I hate games that take days to finish! The only thing that I don’t like is that you have to sign in to change your name like seriously you can’t even pick your name in the beginning my name is literally VitalNabob!?! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
