Inside Monopoly Clone Wars Edition

Email Archives
October 16, 2008

Relive The Clone Wars as you test your skills with the new Monopoly Clone Wars Edition. The galaxy is torn by conflict. Good and evil are pitted against each other in an epic battle for control. First choose a side. Then travel around the game board buying, selling and renting properties based on the The Clone Wars animated series. The more you control, the further your power will spread. In this Special Edition, you can build settlements and cities in place of the classic houses and hotels, and optional Star Wars rules add even more excitement.

Be the most powerful player at the end of the game and you will control the Force and possibly the entire Star Wars galaxy. Includes game board, 28 title deeds, 16 Sith cards, 16 Jedi cards, one pack of Republic credits, banker's tray, 32 settlements, 12 cites, 2 dice and instructions. The game also has six collectible Star Wars-themed tokens: Clone Commander Rex, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, Ahsoka Tano, General Grievous, and Asajj Ventress. The game is for 2 to 6 players, ages 8 and up.

"I've always enjoyed working on the artwork for Star Wars games," Hasbro Games Art Director Michael Swiatlowski says. "There are so many great stories within the saga, the hardest part is often trying to narrow down which main characters to use for the cover. In choosing imagery for both the package and the contents of a game, we know our choices are going to get analyzed, maybe even over-analyzed, by the fans -- which I think is great! That pressure forces us to pay attention to the details. Star Wars fans are everywhere; they appreciate and deserve the best illustration, photography and design that we can create. It's awesome for me to be a part of that."

The new Monopoly Clone Wars Edition from Hasbro is available in stores and at StarwarsShop.com here.
