About the game

What you do in a play session

Jump into a time‑traveling adventure across the Doctor Who universe with this 50th‑anniversary Monopoly collector's edition. The board has been re‑imagined to feature 22 iconic episodes—from "Genesis of the Daleks" to "The Poison Sky"—and the centre showcases all 11 Doctors. Up to six players buy, sell and trade properties that, instead of London streets, are landmark moments from the series. Each player picks one of six themed tokens (umbrella, sonic screwdriver, bow tie, recorder, hat or scarf) and, like the classic, rolls the dice, collects $200 when passing the Daleks and tries to bankrupt opponents. In addition to the standard rules, the game adds auctioning, set collection of episodes, and a fast‑play mode that wraps up in about 60 minutes—great for a quick fix without sacrificing fun. The mix of negotiation, trading and player elimination mechanics keeps the Monopoly feel while sprinkling in Doctor Who flair. High‑quality components, vivid artwork and nods to beloved episodes make this edition a perfect gift for Whovians or anyone who loves a classic board game with a geeky twist. While the full game can stretch beyond an hour, the fast mode keeps the pace lively, and the familiar Monopoly mechanics make it easy to jump in.
