MANILA, Philippines – Gameclub Philippines has a new and upcoming game called Modoo Marble. Currently it is still in development and closed beta testing is set for December.
Modoo Marble is a free-to-play online casual board game similar to the classic board game Monopoly – but with a twist.
In the game, players run around a board and take turns in purchasing properties just like in Monopoly.
Players also get to visit the most popular cirites and historic landmarks around the globe such as New York, Paris, Santorini, Osaka, Cairo and Istanbul.
As of writing, we are still checking with Gameclub if any places from the Philippines will be featured in the game, though based on the screenshot it does not look like it.
