DES MOINES, IA, UNITED STATES, April 1, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- No fooling. Mr. Monopoly is making his way to Des Moines, and he wants you to be part of his next venture! Top Trumps USA, the American division of Winning Moves International and creators of classic games and puzzles, will debut MONOPOLY: Des Moines Edition in around the holidays, under license from Hasbro, a toy and game company. The company is seeking well-established Des Moines businesses and nonprofits to be part of this historic way to honor communities across the city.

MONOPOLY: Des Moines Edition will replace the perennial board game’s famous Atlantic City squares, from Boardwalk to Park Place, with Tampa businesses, nonprofits and landmarks. The Des Moines board will also include a customized Community Chest, Chance playing cards and MONOPOLY money, ensuring each detail of the game pays homage to our Des Moines community.

“Des Moines is such a unique community with rich history. We aim to ensure that MONOPOLY: Des Moines Edition is an accurate portrayal of what Des Moines locals and tourists love about this charming city,” said Sarah Bowman, a Top Trumps representative. “From Papajohn Sculpture Park, Iowa State Fairgrounds, Principal Financial, Noah’s Ark, and the Lauridsen Amphitheater at Water Works Park, we would love for everyone to get on board and send us recommendations of their favorite organizations and landmarks around town.”

To ensure the board captures the most essential elements of Des Moines, Top Trumps is seeking recommendations from the public about which locations should be included as squares on the board.

Additionally, businesses and nonprofits have the momentous opportunity to be part of the board for life. Public submissions and business inquiries can be sent to DesMoines@toptrumps.com for consideration.

MONOPOLY: Des Moines Edition will debut around the holidays and will be available in stores and online at retail partners, including Amazon and select local Des Moines retailers. To learn more about MONOPOLY city experience boards, visit www.toptrumps.us.
