CS 371 Las Crucopoly Project

This page gives the instructor's project requirements, in broad terms, for the CS 371 Spring software development Java Team project.

Yes, it is Monopoly

You will implement the full game of monopoly, according to the standard rules as published in the Parker Brother's 50th Anniversary Edition (i.e. "Dr. J's set").

It is Multiplayer Internet Monopoly

You will support monopoly's standard # of players, playing over the internet.

It is Multiplatform Internet Monopoly

You will support Linux and Windows, playing together. Java "should" make this simple.

Computer Players

You will support computer players with novice/idiot-level "A/I" capabilities.

Local Skins

You will support, via a plain text configuration file, the ability found in many computer versions of monopoly to replace the standard place names and graphics with alternative strings and images, so we can create a Las Cruces version, or a Linux is Evil version, or a Microsoft is Good version, or whatever.
