In keeping with the board game versions of Monopoly, this mobile iteration offers more than one themed Monopoly board to play on. While this may be true in actual business, it doesn't make for a fun gameplay experience. When passing a phone back and forth, unless every player vocally narrates what they're doing as they go, any given person has no idea what is going on.
When playing on a table, sitting around a group of people in a circle staring at a popular board game, everyone can see what is going on at all times.
The 'Pass and Play' feature works somewhat better, but has the unfortunate obvious issue of losing both player's engagement and their understanding of everything currently happening in the game, since every time their turn is over the mobile device must be passed along to the next player.
