Monopoly: X-Men '97 (USOMN011460)
Monopoly: X-Men '97 is a property-trading board game from The Op for 2–6 players, ages 8+, that plays in about 60 minutes.
How it plays
Build your mutant team as you buy, sell and trade. Six collectible tokens include Wolverine's cowl, Cyclops' visor, Magneto's helmet, Rogue's gloves, Gambit's cards and Storm's thunderbolt, and the Chance and Community Chest cards are themed to the series.
It's the Monopoly formula everyone knows: roll, move around the board, buy the spaces you land on, collect rent, and trade with the other players to put together sets.
Build up your spaces to charge more rent and outlast everyone else at the table. The themed board, tokens and cards are what make this edition its own.
