The "shareware" version of a Megazeux clone of Monopoly. There's a world domination theme to this one, instead of buying hotels you're buying continents.

This is a 2-player game, and there is no computer opponent. It can sometimes be unclear whose turn it is, because the only indicator is a change in the text from "player ONE" to "Player TWO" in the upper right-hand corner.

The player does whatever actions they can at the space on which they land, and then rolls the dice to end their turn. Rolling doubles gets you another turn, like in Monopoly, but rolling three doubles in a row gets you sent to the salt mines, which are this game's version of jail.

The "CC" is a country club, which acts like the Communith Chest in Monopoly. Overall it's a bit simplified from Monopoly but still could be interesting to play.

Unfortunately this "shareware" version limits the player to 50 turns, so I was unable to find out how a complete game would have gone. Too bad, because if this were a full version it would probably be one of the most interesting multiplayer games in Megazeux.
