I actually went on a LOTR blitz and picked up Monopoly, Risk, Trivial Pursuit and Stratego, as my old copies were just about burned out or missing bits anyway.

Having a LOTR themed Monopoly set got my kids (who had previously given it a big yawn) involved and has kept their interest. Having the ring option to finish the game gives them a goal line not normally present, and helps tie things up before bed... :)

Artwork on all the sets has been uniformly good and presentation as well.

It's an optional rule in the LOTR Monopoly version where you can have the ring travel around the board from Bag End to Mount Doom, one square at a time when the Eye of Sauron is rolled on the special dice. When it gets to Mount Doom the game finishes.

That sounds wicked, monopoly normally takes longer than a lotr battle

It certainly is a good idea and makes the game more enjoyable for children, or just so you can run a quick game if that's all the time you have.

I remember playing Monopoly with my cousin when I was younger and we had games that literally lasted a day or more... Little Empire builders that we were! :lol:

I got it last xmas and was chuffed to bits. The ring option really makes a difference and stops it getting borring.
I also love the fact I can own both bag end and bar-dur!!
