Jake: You say the show is going to be an interactive multimedia experience, can you give us a sneak peek of what to expect? PLEASE NOTE: Every effort is made to ensure that schedules are correct at the time of print/display but these are always subject to last-minute changes. Benjamin: The first step is figuring out how to improve every aspect of the game. This is also the last step. Take a moment, reader, to think about all the problems you have with Monopoly. Well, we add mechanics to fix all those problems totally and utterly. Sometimes guests may arrive late or early due to travel requirements so please be aware of this when making your plans as we cannot guarantee they will be available all day, most guests will leave the building at 5.30pm, however in some instances they will be available later than this, for example if they are particularly busy with fan autographs.

Provided the opportunity is not sold out then yes, you can pay by cash or card at the tables or at the photoshoot queue entrance. Advance to Edinburgh Castle, the Royal Mile, or the Scott Monument - will you owe rent or reap the rewards? I don’t want to spoil too much but democracy plays a big part of this rework, as do physical and mental challenges. Also there’s a game where we try to guess which one of three liquids is milk. Monopoly: Edinburgh Edition is a version of the classic boardgame first published in 1998 by Winning Moves Games and featuring the city of Edinburgh, capital of Scotland. But this is all balanced out by a single game of Monopoly I played against my family on the 8th June 2020.Benjamin: I’ve made no pre-bookings and decide what to go to based on looking through the programme on the train up and then from word of mouth. I would strongly advise the best way when putting together a list is to go from gut feeling and to see things that are weird and different; that you couldn’t see somewhere else. If the guest queue is not too long then yes, of course, you can spend a few minutes chatting to the guests, however, please be advised that if they are busy, then other people will also be waiting to meet the guest and you may be asked to move along politely after a few moments.

Benjamin: Have you ever played Monopoly?! It’s the worst game in the world. But it is also the single most popular and commercially successful game in the world. Is this just because it was one of the first? Pong was the first video game but that doesn’t mean I break it out every Christmas (though I do still get into arguments over it).Most guests are more than happy to have a selfie taken with you at their table, this is ENTIRELY at the discretion of the guest as is the price and we do ask that you respect their choices in this matter. Suitable Age: 8+ Not suitable for children under the age of 8 years due to small parts which could cause a choking hazard Jake: So this year you’re bringing your show, Absolute Monopoly, to the Fringe – why do you think Monopoly ruins so many relationships and have you had a lot of fun playing around with that idea? The world’s favorite family board game brings you another exciting edition of MONOPOLY – Edinburgh!
