Guide Review - "Monopoly Tycoon Strategy Guide" Review

This guide lays out all the detailed information about chance cards, scenarios, buying properties, tips for winning auctions and the businesses you can build. Like many other strategy guides, if the game came with a good manual, chances are you'll find some of the same info in the guide. If you've been playing for many hours, you probably won't gain much. Much of the strategy is similar to the board game. But if you're like me and like having charts and reading about general strategy ideas, you may want to get this book.
