It wasn't the prettiest show to watch, but it was very compelling television. I was a big fan of Breaking Bad and I'm still hooked on the saga with Better Call Saul. The writing, the characters, the twists and turns, it all works brilliantly. Even the Breaking Bad follow-up movie, El Camino, was satisfying. Those sorts of things don't always go well.

If you still can't get enough of Walter White, Jesse Pinkman, and the criminal underbelly of Albuquerque, now you can bring the fun home with the newest version of a classic board game. According to Boss Hunting, Hasbro licensee USAopoly has released Breaking Bad Monopoly, and they really got the details right. For example, the houses have been renamed “Tented Houses” and the hotels are called “SuperLabs.” And the stops along the board are familiar locations from the series, such as Los Pollos Hermanos and Clovis' Tow Yard.

Breaking Bad Monopoly retails for $39.99 on the official USAopoly site. The set includes:

  • 1 x Game Board
  • 6 x Character Tokens – Heisenberg Hat, Tio’s Bell, Money Barrel, Gas Mask, Pink Teddy Bear, RV
  • 32 x “Tented Houses” (Houses)
  • 12 x “SuperLabs” (Hotels)
  • 16 x “Heisenberg Cards” (Community Chest)
  • 16 x “Walter White Cards” (Chance)
  • Custom-themed Money
  • 2 x Dice
  • 1 x Rulebook
