Business is taken to a whole new level in this edition of Monopoly and it perhaps reflects the times in which we live. Hasbro's Monopoly Empire is all about brands. It shies away from the classic game where you purchase property and streets – accumulating as many brands as possible is the aim of the Empire game.

The set-up involves a similar board which players move around but each square represents a famous company. Yahoo, Intel, Xbox, Samsung and McDonalds to name a few. Players can purchase these brands and accumulate as many as possible to fill their 'billboard'. This consists of a tower that you can build up with little icons to represent your brands. If another play lands on one of your brands, they must pay you depending on how tall your tower is – this ranges up to '800', so the more businesses you have under your belt, the more you will be owed if someone lands on one.

Monopoly have kept things true to life and no one goes bankrupt in this game - if you cannot pay a debt you are more likely to lose a business or perhaps land in jail. Chance and Empire cards are also part and parcel of the game-play.

The playing pieces or tokens are in the Empire edition are very different to those found in the classic Monopoly game; they come in gold and represent video game controller, a coca cola bottle, a box of McDonald's fries, a Motorbike, and a Race-car – all a bit blingtastic and fashionable.

Other Monopoly editions include Star Wars, Avengers, Minions, The Simpsons and Monopoly Junior – the selection is very wide and caters to all interests. However, for big business fun and a twist on an old game, Monopoly Empire is worth checking out. Game-play takes a maximum of 45 minutes, a far cry from the unending hours of play in the classic edition.

    Beginners Monopoly
    Played this recently with some friends and found it be a simplified and quicker version of the classic, which has it's pros and cons. Pro being that it's manageable to play a game within a half hour, thus making it more enticing to a wider audience than the original, which can go on for hours and usually end in screaming arguments about rent. The big drawback from my point of view is that it's too simple, buying brands instead of streets, property, factories etc makes it feel a bit dumbed down.
