STILL the best version!

I've bought owned and played many different versions of Monopoly for PC... but this one is the best by far. Sure, doesn't have the eye-candy of the newer incarnations, but has a lot more features and better gameplay IMHO.

I have "Monopoly 3" (US and UK editions), "Monopoly by Parker Brothers" (dist. by gameHouse), "Monopoly CD" (by Westwood), as well as the Windows 3.x version of Monopoly Deluxe...

Monopoly Deluxe for DOS by far beat's 'em all. Hell, the WinDoZe version of the same game (M.D.) *LACKS* features that the DOS version has! :duh:

Anyhow, two thumbs up, and a blast to play in DOSBox with DOSBox's "Turbo Mode" enabled

Hm, I always thought the controls were awkward / clumsy + the layout not really clear in terms of ownership of squares and such.
I was looking for version 1.5 (the links above don't work anymore, but what I found instead was a 1989 version of monopoly which just happen to solve the problem of ownership in a quite pleasant way, by means of laying the a color ribbon on the game board with the player's color :smurf: . It'd be a good suggestion for an upgrade, if it wasn't abandonware

Take a look at it:
ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/msdos/games/board/monopvga.zip

But, of course, you can always click on the topmost player and highlight the squares of that player. It makes the game much less confusing.
