Monolopy!

[Apostrophe Spacemonkey]

Who wants to play?

I won't be a player, i'll do the dice rolling and take care of the money. I'll use a random number generator to roll a dice, then i'll work out what square you land on etc

Also, New Zealand or English version?

[Pyromanik]

Original.
I will be the car.
Let's roll.

Is Palmerston st the whole of Palmerston North, heads up if I roll a 1 I don't want it!

[Tiwaking!]

This game needs an "Auto Buy" option!

[Apostrophe Spacemonkey]

Yes agreed, let me know if you want me to autobuy for you.

[Tandoori]

Auto-buy for the next turn (roll is a 'double', auto-buy each vacant property I land on).

The whole game of Monolopy can pretty much be played without user intervention. There's little reason not to buy a street wheen landing on it. The only real gameplay comes later in the game when a player has to decided when/where to build houses. It can make for long and boring games.

Risk however, I like, there is a lot more decision making involved.

I am tempted to write a Java based version of Monopoly, but instead of using a Street Map/Street Names: Use Thread Names ('Street Names') and Thread Posts('Houses/Hotels')

Instead of a Jail we could have 'The Cooler'. Instead of money we could use Reputation.

Instead of taxes we could use infractions which eat your Reputation.
One of the Chance cards could be Necromancy. One of the Community Chest cards could be Necromancy too!


It is pretty much how the forum system works at the moment.

You should try Axis and Allies it's Risk with more awesome.

Samurai Swords which is more or less Shogun: Total War in a board game.
Dune (original), the Book Series as a board game.
A Game of Thrones (original), the Book Series as a board game - minus the sex.
The Hobbit: The Adventures of Bilbo in Middle Earth - 1978 edition

Deanox lands on chance.

Chance Card:

All players go directly to jail, for the rest of the game.

Sorry, the game outlived my interest in it. Anyone is welcome to take over.

[BerG]

What we need is a multiplayer online boardgame that we can set a time for and all play each other.


Not that I'll be there, I'll be doing something useful.

[Xenolightning]

I think I won.

In an Applet on a Website?

I play scrabble sometimes online...I play it by closing down as much of the board as possible with 2 letter words or other bad positioning to annoy the ladder players ;p
