Keep getting lost?
It's a very handy app and to be honest one of the best maps out there. It now has constant up to date traffic alerts and has a voice mode for when you can't be checking the screen constantly
  
Monopoly: The Walking Dead
Monopoly: The Walking Dead
2013 | Economic, Entertainment, Territory Building
I'll be honest, I'm a sucker for a themed version of Monopoly so a Walking Dead version really appealed. Although it's a good version, personally its not my favourite.

For starters, this is based on the original comics/graphic novels so there is quite a bit in this that won't be familiar to fans of the show (like me). It's not as easy to get into a themed game like this when you don't know everything about the subject. I also think that the themed items (money, properties and chance/community chest cards) are a little weak compared to other themed versions out there. Although this could just be because I'm not as big a fan of The Walking Dead as I thought! What I did love was the tokens, it's a little dark and disturbing to get to play as Lucille or a bucket of body parts.


The rest of the gameplay is standard Monopoly fare as expected, but maybe this is one made for die hard Walking Dead fans.

Clever but repetitive
I elthoroughly enjoyed playing it but I just found it quite tedious walking back and forth for the tiniest bit of information. Patience isn’t a virtue I own unfortunately so maybe it just isn’t for me.

"I mean, anything with Jack Nicholson kind of got me from the get-go. He’s so great in everything. I’ve always related with the anti-heroes in a way, with those guys that were not totally perfect. But they were just out there in the world, always walking on the edge."

Rolling Stone's 372nd greatest album of all time
Superb second album by The Police, featuring the epic Message in a Bottle, the brooding reggae of Walking on the Moon and a good few other great songs. For me this was The Police (and lets face it therefore Sting) at their best.

Book Favorite

"Another instance of pleasurable re-reading. William Gaddis’ first novel, mid-1950s, The Recognitions, and I remember walking into a bookstore in Manhattan and being intrigued by the striking cover design, from a 15th century Italian altarpiece. The first paragraph knocked me out and I’ve been reading and re-reading Gaddis ever since."

If you are someone who isn't able to leave their house then the app isn't that fun. I'm a full-time mom, and it's not ideal to go walking around to capture Pokemon with an infant. -_-

I love this game. I remember how excited I was when it came out.

Sometimes the walking accuracy is not correct, and it sucks that you can't catch Pokemons without internet connection. And it drains the battery so much.

But - I love that it makes people go out and be more active.

Give it another chance. They've done a lot in the last 5-12 months to get players reengaged with challenges, events, even friendships and trading. It's so much fun. I'm addicted. (Can't you tell?)
