RADGames Now Shipping "Super Add-Ons™" Version for Monopoly® in time for the Holiday Season
New Board Game Concept Offers Unique Level of Play and Excitement
PETERBOROUGH, NH, November 28, 2005 – RADGames, Inc. announced today that its "Super Add-Ons™" line is now shipping and available for purchase in time for the holiday season. The Company’s first product in the series is titled "Super Add-Ons™" Version for Monopoly®. The patented board game add-on sits inside of the original real estate trading game (produced and sold by Hasbro, independent of RADGames), and offers a whole new level of play and excitement featuring additional properties, utilities, and action cards.
Co-founder Robert Wilkins stated, "The Super Add-Ons™ concept is to take the best of an original game available on the market today, and add more fun and challenge. Super Add-Ons™ Monopoly® Version has new properties to trade, buy, and sell, plus some unique action spaces to liven up the play. For example, Travel Cards allow you to move a prescribed number of spaces, forward or back, instead of rolling the dice. This feature makes it quicker and easier to complete monopolies, and speeds up the play of the game."
The concept of the Super Add-Ons™ game has its roots back in 1974. Playing the popular real estate property trading game, twelve year-old Wilkins became frustrated as he neared his opponents’ properties developed with houses and hotels. Using cardboard, paper, and glue, Bob and his friends designed a new companion board to get around those built-up properties. Nearly 30 years later, the concept for the game resurfaced and was further developed by Wilkins and two fellow game enthusiasts.
Super Add-Ons™ Monopoly® Version is now available in select toy stores and gift shops throughout North America. Super Add-Ons™ is also available for purchase directly from RADGames at www.radgames.com. Suggested retail price is $24.95. Specialty toy and game retail buyers please contact RADGames at 603-924-6446.
