The Monopoly is renewed with the incorporation of the cat on the board

The Monopoly has been renewed, and has done so replacing the iron that accompanied the game since 1935 with a cat. The decision has been made after observing the preferences of fans of this classic, who chose the cat in front of a robot, a helicopter, a guitar and a diamond ring.

In total, comments from up to 185 different countries were received, of which 31% 'saved' the cat (a percentage higher than its opponents). Hasbro had also asked his followers to decide which chip he continued in the game, and Consequently, the dog (you know that it is a Scottish terrier) has been pardoned.

So after the global consultation, and the results obtained, the production machinery of Monopoly is being launched to start selling the new boxes from the middle of this year.

It has rained a lot since Charles Darrow invented the first Monopoly using figurines of his niece's bracelet, imagine that of players who will have 'ruined' or who will have achieved a real estate empire thanks to the game owned by Hasbro (company that bought the patent ).

Since this year, the cat replaces the iron, and the dog stays on the board.
