On Jan. 10, 2024, Top Trumps USA, the American division of Winning Moves International, announced the debut of MONOPOLY: Riverside edition. The game will include local businesses and landmarks across the city. An interview with Jennifer Tripsea, a senior sales executive, revealed more information about the developing project.
How long has this project been in the works for?
We’re just starting. Today’s our announcement and we’re letting the community know that we want to hear suggestions by no later than Feb. 16. And then we’re going to build the project and the game is going to come out in Sept.
How can the community turn in their suggestions?
We’re going to ask everybody to email us. The email is riverside@toptrumps.com.
Are there any landmarks or historical areas that you are going to preserve in the game even if no one recommends them?
We’re going to look to the community for suggestions but we’re going to do our research as well to see what should be on it. We really want to feature everything that’s iconic and what people love about the city. We aim to ensure that MONOPOLY: Riverside Edition is an accurate portrayal of what Riverside locals and tourists love about this charming city
Why Riverside?
Riverside is such a historic area and there’s so much community pride, so we thought, why not? We think this will be a perfect location. From the rich arts and culture to historic Riverside staples, we would love for everyone to get on board and send us recommendations of their favorite organizations and landmarks around town.
Is there anything else you think is important for the community to know about the board game?
The game is coming out in Sept., so by the end of Sept., you will be able to purchase it in all of your local retail shops as well. Right now we’re just looking for suggestions.
