Monopoly for the EPOC32 (Psion) is now in color. Last year, a patch was found updating the game to a newer version.
This added proper support for the Series 7 (netBook), and therefore color! Unfortunately, the "new" version was only in English and had a number of issues, so some effort had to be made to improve it. For this version, the remaining languages from the original release have been adapted and the color graphics have been slightly improved. Also, some errors in the language resources (made when I created the previous SIS version) were found and corrected, and the Russian translation was slightly improved.

However, for some reason, this version suffers from an annoying bug (made by the game's author) - the Get out of Jail Free card (from the "Chance" pile) is not displayed on the player panel. However, the card from the "Community Treasury" pile is displayed without a problem.

I'd be happy to fix this issue, but it would require modifying the game code itself, which is much more difficult than changing resource files and, unfortunately, is generally difficult for me to implement. There are also mentions of a network mode in this version, but it seems it was never completed. I couldn't figure out how to activate it in the end :( .

Therefore, the bug fixes were also included in the original 1997 version; at least it can be used without problems on B/W devices.

The result of this work were two new versions of the game: 1.10 (based on the classic 1997 version) and 1.20 (based on the color patch). Version 1.20 contains two graphics sets - one for color and one for B/W screens (this explains the large size of the installation file). The choice is made during the game installation.

In fact, both versions were compiled by me back in the fall of 2025, but due to attempts to fix a card bug in the color version and figure out the mysterious network mode, the release was significantly delayed.
