He who controls the spice, controls the Monopoly game…. Legendary has just introduced a new version of the classic game Monopoly, with a Dune theme.

      Because it’s one of those games that would much better be replaced for its main use case. Imagine if something like catan filled the same cultural role of “game you play when family is over”

      Monopoly is long, victory is ensured early and finished slowly

        If played with no house rules, monopoly is a quick game. And I would much rather a Dune Catan game. Star Trek Catan is a fun variant.
