Automonopoli is a full implementation of the famous game of Monopoly. It allows for up to five players, with the computer participating if you require.

The whole width of the screen is used to display just 2.5 locations. All the normal 'chance', mortgages and swapping facilities, etc, are available, plus fast recall of present property position. The computer amply takes care of the whole game, from throwing the dice to moving your piece. A surprising amount of excellent graphics are used to make a very impressive display indeed. The computer plays a very strong game, and doesn't even cheat!

For such an involved game, it is important to give full instructions, and these are provided on-screen. They are on the cassette inlay too, which makes life much easier if you forget something.

I can conclude by recommending this highly, especially for those frustrated people who have difficulty finding an opponent - your Spectrum has just learnt to play!
