About the game
Note: Not to be confused with Monopoly: Here and Now – The World Edition from 2008. In the world’s favorite cities in this Here & Now version of the fast-trading property game, Monopoly! The jet-set gameplay will be epic as you race around the world to visit the world’s most exciting places and buy locations. Every time you add another stamp to your passport, you get closer to the globetrotting win! Travel around the gameboard visiting The World's most exciting places. Pay for the stamps of the places you land on and put them in your passport. Charge other players vistor fees to stop at places you have stamps for. The first player to fill their passport wins! Different than traditional Monopoly (even previous "Here & Now" Editions) - there are no houses, hotels, or even title deeds. The goal isn't to bankrupt other players (in fact, the rules say if you are out of money, just don't pay - but keep playing). The goal of each player is to fill their own "Passport". This game plays far more like Monopoly Empire than regular Monopoly. An edition with places in the USA exclusively, also exists: Monopoly: Here & Now (America has voted - powered by BuzzFeed).
