MONOPOLY P.C. was first written in PR1ME BASICV on a PR1ME 550 in 1979.
It is still on that system today as a 9 player (inc. computer player)
game with trading and merging. When I translated it UP to MBASIC, I
took out the trading and auctioning aspects and made it a "solitaire" game.
In it's place, I have tried to maximize the communication aspects of the game
and make this more in line with what Monopoly (C) purists would like to
use to practice their strategy.
MONOPOLY P.C. has been designed to minimize your keystrokes. ALWAYS use the
ENTER (or RETURN) key for the first response in parentheses at a prompt.
If you want to check up on old games, the file MONOPOLY.REC contains results
and which random numbers were used as 'seeds'. You may TYPE this file.
By the way, MONOPOLY P.C. is faithful to the rules of the Parker Brothers
game. If you want to check the rules, buy Monopoly (C) and play along!
You have the opportunity to control the environment (display speed,colors,
and sound) by using option 9 from the decisions menu. The default settings
are NO delay, BORING monochrome colors, and the sound starts off ON.
