Mass Effect, Pac-Man, WoW, and Skylanders are getting the classic board game treatment
2/10/13 9:30pm
The mad geniuses over at USAopoly (the company responsible for Street Fighter and Sonic Monopoly) have announced they have a new batch of video game/classic board game crossovers, which will be gracing store shelves throughout the coming months.
According to the company’s American International Toy Fair press release (the event in which these items made their debut earlier today), gamers can expect to see Mass Effect and Plants Vs Zombies themed Risk sets, a Skylanders Monopoly game, a Pac-Man Yahtzee game, a Space Invaders Jenga game, a WoW version of Trivial Pursuit, and (I kid you not) a Dungeons & Dragons version of Clue!
Here’s the release schedule (with each price) as according to the press release:
- Clue: Dungeons and Dragons – price: $39.95 - release date: Spring 2013
- Skylanders Monopoly – price: $39.95 – release date: Summer 2013
- JENGA: Space Invaders Collector's Edition – price: $29.95 – release date: Summer 2013
- Risk: Mass Effect Galaxy – price: $49.95 – release date: Fall 2013
- RISK: Plants vs. Zombies Collector’s Edition – price: TBA – release date: Fall 2013
- Yahtzee: Pac-Man Collector's Edition – price: $24.95 – release date: Fall 2013
- Trivial Pursuit: World of Warcraft – price: $24.95 – release date: Fall 2013
I’m dorking out so hard right now! Space Invaders Jenga and Pac-Man Yahtzee sound so cool and knowing something as ridiculous as Clue: Dungeons and Dragons exists makes my heart smile.
Are any of you g1s interested in these classic video/board game mash-ups?

The Mass Effect game actually sounds like a pretty good idea.

Mass Effect edition of Risk... I'd buy that in a heartbeat. Granted I don't have anyone who'd play it with me but whatever, it's Risk and Mass Effect.

I haven't even completed a Mass Effect game in it's entirety but I am definitely with you on that. Risk with Star Gate or Star Trek would be awesome too.

Clue D&D had been done before, so this is no real surprise. http://www.amazon.com/USAopoly-None-Clue-Dungeons-Dragons/dp/B000YMP75C
