Board games make a comeback
The market is flooded with many board games that we loved as children. The new range of the old and popular board games come with a few changes. The latest version of the board game Monopoly to hit the stores is called Monopoly Empire. And rightly so - in this version players can build their own 'empires' as the game progresses. It is an interesting twist to the older version - the aim of the players is to build the tallest billboard tower by trading international brands. If you must know the game features twenty two high end brands, six of these twenty two brands can be used as tokens.
This list is sure to help you find a toy for children of different age groups.
