Combining two popular game titles of two different genres into one, MONOPOLY Solitaire: Card Games is a hybrid online mobile game with both board game and card game features. The rule and gameplay for both two sections remain the same as if players are playing separate games. However, instead of rolling a dice to make valid moves on the game board, players now need to solve solitaire puzzles first, and win certain numbers to serve as the dice-rolling result for the moves in Monopoly. Therefore, players follow a regular solitaire game rule to organize the cards in the seven columns in the correct order and move them to four foundations.

Besides, when players place cards in an appropriate sequence, they would also win silver coins with which they can purchase properties that in turn generates revenues and rents as gold assets. This is the assets accumulation for the board game. As for the Monopoly section, the rule totally resembles that of a classic and conventional Monopoly game. Players use the solitaire game result as a numerical token to replace the dice-rolling results.

For this section of gaming, it is luck-based. Players can locate in any box on the board with randomly different results. If they move to an un-owned property box, they can buy that property with the silver coin earned in the solitaire; if it is an owned-property, then players arrive to collect rent/gold. Other results are also included just like in a regular monopoly game, such as tax, chance and jails. In short, the whole game's pace and length can be either fast or slow, short or long, based on the skills in solitaire and the luck in monopoly.

Another thing some players are concerned about merging two games into one is the length of each game session. However, this game is essentially functioning as a board game whose winning factor is luck-based, which means the game could either be shorter or longer randomly.
