The Monopoly Wicked Edition game blends classic Monopoly gameplay with elements inspired by the Wicked film, featuring locations, characters, and storylines from the land of Oz. It includes six golden zinc tokens: Elphaba’s hat, Elphaba’s broom, Elphaba’s bottle, Glinda’s crown, Glinda’s trunks, and The Grimmerie. The board showcases iconic Oz locations such as Shiz University and Emerald City, where players earn Ozian coins by acquiring properties. Munchkin Homes and Emerald Castles replace traditional houses and hotels, increasing coin earnings.
The game includes themed cards with moments from the film, offering rewards or penalties, such as collecting 20 Ozian coins with Madame Morrible’s training wand. Designed for ages 8 and up, it serves as a family-friendly board game for gatherings or vacations. With its detailed Wicked-inspired design, this edition appeals to fans of the film and Monopoly enthusiasts.
Things to Keep in MindA recurring concern is the game's simplified money system and altered mechanics, which players often find result in very short games, a lack of strategic challenge, and a feeling that it plays more like a 'Junior' version of Monopoly, disappointing those expecting a traditional experience. Why You'll Like ItPlayers often praise the game's appealing visuals and detailed components, noting its strong 'Wicked' theme integration, which enhances the overall playing experience.
