As a kid, my sister and I would play Monopoly and I loved the game.  We even played it through the mail when she moved away for college (not email, but the postal service) for about a year!  I am not recommending that way but looking back it was a fun way to play.  Well times have changed and Monopoly is still around. Now you can play it on your Android phone with EA's version of this classic.  

While you can play multiplayer, there is no online version for playing against friends and family.  We can hope that EA will add this into future versions. But if you want to play and hand your phone or tablet back and forth you can certainly play with human opponents.  I have been playing this game almost daily since I downloaded it.  It was recently the Amazon free app of the day so I snagged it then.  If you go to the market now it is $4.99. I will say even at that price it is a steal.  The game play is fluid and entertaining. They have plenty of options so that you can turn sounds on and off, make the dice roll without having to shake the phone and several game play options such as having all of the properties given out at the beginning of the game.  There are three levels of difficulty to keep you challenged.  I do find the AI players to be a little too predictable in the manner which they skip your hotels it seems on many rolls.  But that makes the game last longer, right? The game allows you to make trades and the AI players are eager to get properties so that they can put you out of business.  You see how the trading works and you can get the properties you want most of the time by offering good deals to those players.

I like that you can start and stop the games which makes playing against the AI fun allowing you to sneak a few turns in when you are stuck waiting somewhere.  If you love Monopoly and you don't want to play through the US Postal Service, then this might be the app for you. Download it today.
