Playing Monopoly, only life-sized
Monopoly Lifesized is a high-octane way to play the famous board game about London.
This interactive edition features four different massive Monopoly boards, complete with themed challenge rooms, community chest games, a lifesized jail and Monopoly tokens in a central London site.
Monopoly Lifesized combines interactive game play, immersive theatre, and entertainment technology. For 80 minutes, players of all ages can feel the thrill of trying to stage a heist in Mayfair, compete against a clock to build some of London’s iconic buildings, solve a baffling murder mystery or step into the world of codebreakers.
It features a themed restaurant and bar, The Top Hat, with delicious food, bespoke cocktails and immersive Monopoly-themed fun, as well as a retail outlet selling a range of Hasbro game merchandise and bespoke Monopoly Lifesized items. Monopoly Lifesized London is the first of a series of the experiences set to roll out worldwide.
David Hutchinson, chief executive of The Path Entertainment Group, said: “The response has been phenomenal and what’s brilliant is seeing people’s passion for Monopoly translate to excitement around this fantastic new immersive experience. “We’re already inundated with approaches to set up Monopoly Lifesized in locations around the globe and bring the world’s favourite board game to life for the whole world.”
