Pass go and collect 200 (riyals this time though)…
Earlier this week, a very fun announcement was made, and board game buffs, you’re going to love this one. It’s just been announced that a Riyadh Monopoly board is coming soon.
Although the game’s release date hasn’t been confirmed just yet, we’re still very excited about the news. According to posts online, the game will be developed by KEAD Entertainment.

KEAD Entertainment, a company which has exclusive rights to produce any exclusive editions of Hasbro board games in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, has also worked with major titles including TOP Trumps, Cluedo, Risk, and Guess Who.
Dubai got its version back in 2019, which featured Sheikh Zayed Road, Al Fahidi, Xclusive Yachts, La Mer, and CityWalk, among others, and was divided into brown, light blue, pink, orange, red, and yellow.
If you’re familiar with the structure of the famous game, you’ll know that the idea is to put your properties on tiles across the board. Each tile is worth a sum, and when your fellow players land on your property, they need to pay that sum to you.
There are surprises along the way, meaning you could end up in jail, or you might get a nice payout; you never know what will happen next. Monopoly first debuted in 1935 and has been popular with families and groups of friends ever since, being played by more than one billion people across the world.
