Summary: Monopoly Casino Vegas Edition
Review: For all you folks who just loved the 1st monoploy casino and have seen all the new versions in the casinos in vegas . You would think you couldnt be with out this one well think again .If I could send this one back I would. Where is Party Train or any of the new games? What no games with the famous bonus rounds . Hell the bonus rounds are what make Monoploy slot machines so much fun . If they are here I cant find them. Thought they would fix the interface when playing 1 coin machines you still have to hit bet 1 then spin . All in all fun program but just a ripoff on the name to get folks who love the real machines to spend money. If you dont own the 1st monoploy casnio buy that one and pass on this game

Summary: Dissapointed
Review: I bought this game hoping for some good slots, a good Sic-Bo game, and a realistic Bingo simulation. I'm not at all disappointed. Here's the rundown of how I rate this game compared to the first Monopoly Casino and other casino software (I have lots of it, believe me!) Pai-Gow poker: Same as on most casino simulations. Good play, fast dealing, easy to understand bet amounts and current totals. Sic-bo: Excellent! Nice game, fast paced, well done board and action. Has a re-bet button so you don't have to place your bet over and over if you don't want to. The only gripe about this game is that you can't easily tell how much you won per payout. It just adds it to your score. I would have liked something that said "You win XX credits!" Keno: If you like Keno, you'll love this. It's just like the paper version of Keno. You mark your spots, tell it how many games to play and how much to bet, and let it do it's thing. You cannot do any fancy betting here, though. Just straight Keno- pick between 1 and 10 numbers, period. (some Keno games allow you different picking options) Progressive Video Poker: An interesting twist. Just like regular Vid Poker except a natural Royal Flush pays out a progressive jackpot. There are 4 Progressive Vid Poker games, all very similar in design with different wild cards, etc. I enjoyed playing this- the cards are dealt at a good pace (a little slow, but I prefer it that way.) Poker: lot of Poker. I haven't played them all, but there is Texas Hold 'em, Omaha Hold 'em, Omaha Hold 'em Hi-Lo, 7 Card Stud, 7 Card Stud Hi-Lo, and 7 Card Stud low. I tried out 7 card stud just to see how it ran. Slow dealing, and you can't lower the number of opponents like on other games. Fast betting, though. It was hard to tell who won at the end of the game. I would rate it as so-so. Nothing to write home about. I was very pleased with the slots in this game. The original Monopoly had a few "real" slots, then the rest were all exactly the same, except the pictures were different. Nothing but single payline games with different symbols. I was VERY disappointed in that. This version is a HUGE improvement, with much nicer slot games. Progressive Slots: These are nice slot games. Go To Pieces is a multi-line game (3) that's pretty straight-forward. Good enough game. Lap of Luxury is nicer- 3 payline also, but nicer design and more interesting play. I enjoyed this one quite a bit. Last is Family Tree, which I am addicted to! It's a 5 line game with lots of payouts and a fun design. Fun game. Money Wheel: Typical money wheel game- nice design. VERY slow spinning, though. I find myself thinking come ON! It probably is about the same spin rate as at the casino, but it seems slow for a game to me. It's a nice game, though if you just feel like relaxing and playing a bit. Not very exciting, but the money wheel isn't usually a big thrill. One interesting note: Normally the "big" spaces on the wheel pay 40:1. In this game, it pays 45:1, which is nice. Bingo. LOVE IT! I'm a big bingo fan anyway, but this is a great game. You can play from 1-8 cards. You can control the speed of the caller, and it moves right along. Different patterns are offered, so it's not always the same old game. You are playing against others, so sometimes you hear a chorus of people yell "Bingo!" all at the same time, which is funny. There is tournament play available, too. (I haven't tried that yet) Excellent bingo game- they really did their homework on this one. Regular Slot Machines: These are OK- kind of the same old stuff. Hit The Road, Short Line Trolley, Monopoly Acres, Propery Tycoon, and Jailbird are all plain old single payline, 3 reel slots. Nice design, but not very exciting play. The last regular slot is "Cover Art", which is fun. It has a "break the bank" feature to it. You accumulate credits each time you spin a "pig" symbol, and they are given to you if you spin 4 pigs or your bank accumulates up to 250. I like that feature and this is my favorite regular slot. Video Poker: There are 6 different varieties of video poker. Nice design, fast play. All different combos of wild cards, etc. Great if you like video poker. Video Slots: I enjoy these a lot. There are three different video slots. This is not regular slots with a bonus game, it's actually a game/slots combo. They are all very entertaining. One has a "Who dunnit" theme, one is a race car game, and one is a battleship theme. They have a lot of replayablilty. Nice addition, in my opinion. Blackjack: Very similar to the original Monopoly Casino blackjack. Nice play, fast dealing, good dealer chatter. Craps: Decent enough craps game- Nothing out of the ordinary, pretty standard game. Nice design, fast play. Roulette: Monopoly theme to this game- no red and black, it's red and green (for hotels and houses). Has a "re-bet" feature, which is vital to roulette, in my book. Nice game, good design. All in all, this is a lot of game .... There is a lot to do in it, and they really did a lot with the slots this time around. The bingo is excellent and the Sic-bo is a great addition. If you are a casino fan, you'll enjoy this game. The only bad things are that the background music is annoying after a while (you can turn it off) and it's not always easy to see how much money you are winning. Otherwise, it's a well done game and has lots of replayability.

Summary: Different, but good
Review: I finally found this game at a bargain price. I was hesitant to purchase it before, since I had the original Monopoly Casino, which I rated excellent (with a few drawbacks for game play); so my review highlights some of the good and bad comparisons. Now I haven't tryed all the games so far, (wasn't familiar with Sic-Bo, but after reading the rule book, this seems like Chuck-a luck with dice, a variant is played at Church carnivals and other out fraternal gatherings, with a wheel covering all 216 combinations, with straight beting only on 1 to 6. The Monopoly Vegas version adds more options. Sort of like roulette with dice. Can't wait to play it. Speaking of dice, I'm not a craps player-could never under stand the betting options. I guess it's like roulette; don't get me wrong-I know the basics-come out roll 7 or eleven and win; go for point, crap out on snake eyes, etc. I guess the rest are just bonus money-makers (or takers). The original at least had Mr. Monopoly emceeing. And concerning Roulette, well I think this one's a little worse. One wheel/table a monoply version of standard (pertinent graphical changes) . I had trouble figuring out the betting. Way different than the original or any other roulette game I have. I guess the stake is what you take to the table, and the bet (minimum $5) or multiples? is what you would lay on the table. I guess, I'll figure it out. Also I noticed that the bankroll didn't change. computer glitch? The Monopoly Roulette in the Original was better, fun, and different. So, agreeing with some reviews, I was only going to give this one less star since Mr. Monopoly is no where to be seen or heard, except on the Kings of cards. But then, this is Vegas, and not Atlantic City, so I guess that explains it. Which compared to the original sort of makes this just another casino game. No talking players either, just the dealers and bingo callers. However, the actaul games are a big improvement over the some of Originals, mainly because of the graphics. (Very vivid colors) and the variety of games. Did I notice that there was no 5 card draw? How can that happen? But the video poker is improved, as are the reel slots, sort of --machines that look like machines. Better interface on VP, an improvement. Should have more (maybe 6 or more extra with buy a play options) reel spinning slots-is it my imagination or most of them (except cover art) basically the same with different symbols? I see multi coin and multi line, so maybe not. I'm a huge slot fan so this is important to me. Actually slots are the major improvement and along with Bingo and keno (more on them later) is why I wanted this game. Progressives are a nice touch but the jackpot could be displayed better (dot matrix along the top of the machine like for real? Other Slot PC games do this. Again progressive video polker is different and good. Only Cardoza had one or two on theirs. The video slots leave something to be desired, different good; but I was expecting the usual 3 line 5 reel, 9 way with bonus rounds. Otherwise the slot and VP portion of the game reminds me of my old Hoyle game (1999 vintage). Still a lot of fun. Agree with the others, could be more, and more realistic--actual Monopoly games. Williams is cranking them out for real, they should have been incorporated into this. Now on to Bingo and Keno. This is why I got the game, hoping to uninstall My Masque B and K game. I'm not going to, because the unique feature of that (and on a Phantom EFX games-RD 2 has a video bingo)one can pick the patern and card price, and other wise is standard play at the table off a card bingo that we all know and love. Phantoms efx has a video bingo that places the wager denomination with each number drawn. Different). That's my only complaint about the Vegas Monopoly bingo game - Can't pick your own pattern; but playing tournaments on a pre-selected (by the computer) is fun and the price is good. Even the owners manual says this is the best way to profit. Very realistic play. Just like the Church basement. Even better (and this is by far the best) is the Keno game, which is identical to bar Keno in WVA and Md. Only the flashy graphics of the numbers popping up are missing. (Maybe the ball image like their bingo should have been added. The ticket looks like a state lottery ticket, and the winners get cashed and the losers get ripped. (the tickets that is, and the players too). Every one knows keno/lotto is the worst way to make money. By the way, the masque Keno (on the bingo game) is a video keno, usually found in some slot parlors. So that's my take. To summarize, Good- graphics, and realism of slots, video poker, bingo, and keno. Bad: No Mr. Monopoly and 5 card draw. But it occured to me that this is in Vegas, not Atlantic City. So, I stand corrected. I'll give back the star. And, the same rockin' toe tapping sound track has before is on this one too. who is that band? I'd like to get a CD of their music. It's wonderful, and I agree that sometimes the disc is worth playing just for the music.

Summary: Monopoly Casino- It's OK
Review: I just got the Monopoly Casino Vegas Edition yesterday. It includes the ususals: Craps, Roulette, Poker, Video Poker, Keno, Slots- and they added Bingo, Sic-Bo, Money Wheel, and Video Slots. Bingo is lots of fun. Poker is also pretty good. Video Poker is a bit bland, but playable. Keno translates pretty well- they removed the original Keno machine they used in the original Monopoly Casino and now a regular number board. Now, the not so good news. Roulette limits you to only $500 at any table. While the Craps game in the original Monopoly Casino was very fun, they now made the layout into some techno-metal thing. After every roll, the board lights up with winning bets in green and losing bets in red which gets very annoying. And you get hardly any time to see what the dice landed on. However, there is a big glitch in Sic-Bo and Money Wheel. Whatever the table limits are, is what they think the maximum winnings is. So therefore, if the table limit was $5-$500 and you bet $100 on 10-to-1, they would make you take it off since you could win $1000. Now, the slots. To my dismay, there are no Vegas Monopoly slots. There are regular slot machines just with Monopoly icons on the reels, and that's their excuse for Monopoly Slots. Also, the 3 Video Slots are spins on Battleship, Clue, and I think Milles Borne. They're fun, but I'd rather see Monopoly slots. The atmosphere has improved from the original version, it looks more like Vegas. Also, you don't hear Mr. Monopoly anywhere, he's been replaced by regular dealers. Also, in the original version a whole bunch of bells and whistles would go off when you won, while in this version you have no clue if you won or lost. They don't even say as much as "Winner". Nothing at all. Overall, this is an OK game, but you're better off shopping around for some other game if you want a really good game.

Summary: Worse & Better than the original, but not Vegas-like.
Review: I was headed to Las Vegas to go to the Global Gaming Expo when I found "Monopoly Casino: Vegas Edition" was released. So, instead of buying it, I decided I'd go to G2E and see the newest Monopoly slot machines, and then, when I returned and bought the software, I could compare the play to the original. (...) The slot machines in this program are a grave disappointment over the original version (Monopoly Casino), for the first has sixteen normal slot machines and then three official WME Monopoly slot machines, including "Once Around," "Chairman of the Board," and "Reel Estate." The new program does not have any WME slot machines, only nine typical slot machines and three video slots, none of which are professional enough to be authentically used in Vegas. The "Vegas Edition" did fix the poker room to reflect the current trend in double blinds instead of ante. It also added a BINGO game, to which my wife is addicted. Overall, the game is playable and nice, but it might have been more appropriate to name this "Indian Casino" instead of "Vegas Edition."(...)
