Is it the case that Monopoly is a kids game? I don’t know a single kid that wants to play Monopoly.
Candyland isn’t even luck based. It is 100% predetermined by the shuffling of the cards.

- aaronax 7y agoPredetermined luck (luck of the card shuffle) versus luck of a dice roll (luck of events during the gameplay). Two types of luck, though yes they are still both luck.
- Broken_Hippo 7y agoI loved monopoly when I was a kid. Not a young child, mind you - past the candyland age, but definitely at the age of Parcheesi, trouble, and life. I more had trouble talking my parents into playing it with me.
