Anti-Monopoly

This is a digital version of the board game Anti-Monopoly.

Anti-Monopoly is similar to the well-known Monopoly board game, but some differences exist. The major one is that the players are evenly divided into competitors and monopolists. Competitors can build on any street they own, constructing up to 4 houses before upgrading to an apartment. They receive the same rent for transport companies regardless of how many they own, generally earning smaller amounts of money at a time but also losing less when they do. Monopolists, on the other hand, can only build in cities where they have monopolized (owning 2 or more streets). They can only construct 3 houses before an apartment, typically earning larger sums of money at a time but also risking higher losses.

Features

The following features were implemented till now:

Rolling the dice

Once a player is on the turn, he/she can roll the dice by shaking the phone or simply by clicking on the dice. After that, the figure moves automatically to the correct field.

Cheating

After the figure is moved to the correct place, the player receives a suggestion to cheat with the possibility of 50%.  When the player decides to cheat, he can simply move the figure to the next field. It can be convenient when for example a player comes to some "unlucky" field like going to prison. However, the cheater should take some risks into account.

Detect cheaters

When one of the players sees that the other one is cheating, it is possible to report it by clicking on the name of the cheater in the left corner.  When the blamed player was actually cheating, then 20% of his money is taken as a punishment.
