Mall Madness is a shopping themed board game published by Milton Bradley, first released in 1988. Two to four players move around a two-story shopping mall, each trying to buy every item on a personal shopping list before heading back to the parking lot or a chosen final destination. An electronic computer unit sets the pace by telling each player how many spaces to move, announcing a clearance at one store and sales at two others, and accepting purchases made with a card slid into a buy slot, while paper money is settled with a player acting as banker. Players move along rows and columns but never diagonally, and a store can only be entered through its doors. After the original, an electronic talking edition came in 1989, with redesigns in 1996, 2004 and 2020. The box is aimed at players aged nine and over.
