Dear all,
I have the pleasure to announce a brand new and probably completely useless
program for RISC OS: !MonopolyCal - a Monopoly Calculator.
The most attractive part of the old game of Monopoly is the exchange of
banknotes - at least for children, especially when they see their piles
grow. For parents however, those subsequent exchanges are the most
daunting quality, to be held responsible for at least half of the game play
duration.
This is where !MonopolyCal comes to rescue. Never be short of certain
banknotes again. Never again tedious calculations or bitter battles about
whose money that pile is. Never again confusion about the 1000 and 10000
notes, which (for some unobvious reason) are both yellow - at least in our
Dutch edition. Just a few mouse clicks, and all the finances are settled -
crispy, clear and concise.
Until recently, I never wanted to play Monopoly. Since I created this
calculator my children refuse to play. This is what we call: a win-win
situation.
!MonopolyCal can be downloaded from

Kind regards,
Paul Sprangers
