FRANKSTON’S beaches, gardens, and restaurants feature as locations in the newly released Monopoly: Frankston Edition board game.
Mr Monopoly rode through Frankston for the board game’s official release last week. The game was launched at Bayside Shopping Centre on 24 July.
Among the local landmarks to appear on the board are Ballam Park, Beauty Park, Frankston Arts Centre, Frankston Library, Peninsula Aquatic Recreation Centre, Pines Forest Aquatic Centre, Jubilee Park Stadium, George Pentland Botanic Gardens, Bayside Shopping Centre, Iron River, Hotel Lona, FRATELLI, The Grand, Frankston RSL, Olivers Hill, and Frankston Beach.
The board game is produced by Winnings Moves under license from Hasbro. Winning Moves representative Daniel Fuentes said “Frankston plays such an integral part in the vast history of Victoria. After a year of spending time connecting with locals to uncover what would best represent the area, we’re excited to reveal a game that we feel incorporates the area’s unique heritage, offering players a sliver of the past while paying homage to the modern touchstones of the town.”
Monopoly: Frankston Edition is on sale at Big W, JB Hi-Fi, General Games, and EB Games.
