Monopoly Here & Now: U.S. Edition Teaches Cities to Kids

The latest Monopoly board, Monopoly Here & Now: U.S. Edition, available from Hasbro, features 22 real-life cities including Dallas, Los Angeles, and New York City as property spaces. Earlier this year, Hasbro teamed with BuzzFeed for Monopoly’s 80th anniversary, inviting fans to vote for their favorite U.S. cities, which the new board reflects.

In Monopoly Here & Now: U.S. Edition, the game tokens include the Statue of Liberty, a baseball glove, a trolley, and a cowboy hat. Game play includes purchasing passport stamps to favorite locations and charging other players visitor fees for stopping in these cities.
