If at first glance you assumed that this game is like regular Monopoly, only with a few thematic images, you'd be very wrong. The folks at Hasbro and Nickelodeon went all out of this iteration of the game.
This new version of ever-popular Monopoly is completely inspired by the iconic Nickelodeon animated series. The board itself features an adorable illustration of Tommy Pickles, Chuckie Finster and Angelica Pickles smack-dab in the middle, and there are six metal game pieces to choose from, including Spike, the Pickle's family dog; Reptar, the infamous T.Rex; Cynthia, Angelica's doll with sparse and semi-electrocuted hair; the beloved screw driver that Tommy always had in his diaper to get the babies in and out of the play pen; Chuckie's glasses; and the rubber ducky that Phil and Lil had embellished on their outfits. Instead of regular ol' houses and hotels, players can build up their properties with baby gates and playhouses, which are purchased with paper Reptar Bars — it's serious crawl down memory lane!
Currency in the game is made of Reptar bars, and with it you can stock up on baby gates and playhouses in lieu of homes and hotels. But perhaps what's most charming about this revival and tribute board are the figurines.
A baby's gotta do what a baby's gotta do, and a baby's gotta play this game!
