Amazing Games 48K Spectrum Price: £5.50 This is an extremely poor implementation of the much copied board game, where the only sort of board you get is in the loading picture! Incredibly it involves just you against the computer, the only guidance being a series of menus. The property list goes through everything: what you own, your cash (and the same for the computer) and then all the unsold properties as well. It is amazingly tedious to play, and in my opinion a total waste of money. Buy Automata's excellent version instead.

MACHINE: Spectrum 48K CONTROL: Keys FROM: Amazing Games, £5.50 A reasonable copy of Monopoly for once, where you wheel and deal in London real estate against your avaricious computer opponent. No graphics or sound though and the program reacts very slowly to your commands. It'll be confusing if you don't have the board game because there is no map or instructions.
