History of the board game Monopoly in 1991. An all-Europe edition was published by Parker Brothers in 1991 for the nations of the then European Communities, using the Ecu (European Currency Unit). After acquisition by Hasbro, publication of "Monopoly" in the U.S. ceased at the Parker Brothers plant in Salem, Massachusetts in November 1991. In 1994, the license to the company that would become USAopoly was issued, and they produced a San Diego, California edition as their first board. In 1995, a license for new game variations and reprints of "Monopoly" was granted to Winning Moves Games. See the Localizations, licenses, and spin-offs section below for
Mystery Mansion (board game) Mystery Mansion (board game) Mystery Mansion is the name of a series of board games in which players search furniture and other objects inside a mansion to locate a hidden treasure or stash of money. The first version of the game was released by the Milton Bradley Company in 1984, the same year when Hasbro took over that company. Instead of a standard game board, the original "Mystery Mansion" features a modular board where players build the mansion by adding new rooms drawn at random. Hasbro then released an electronic talking version under its Parker Brothers brand in the 1990s.
