MONOPOLY
by Electronic Arts
I couldn’t even tell you how many hours I have spent playing my favorite board game, Monopoly. I played with my parents and my brother, and now I play it with my kids. I still prefer the actual board, but in a pinch (or on a trip) this beautifully rendered iPhone version will do. Play with friends over WiFi, bluetooth, or pass and play. Also note there is a “world” version, as well as iPad versions for both.
