Monopoly Game

This project is a web-based Monopoly game built using NestJS for the backend, Next.js for the frontend, and WebSockets to enable real-time multiplayer interactions.

Project Overview

The goal of this project is to create a fully-functional online Monopoly game where multiple players can connect, play in real-time, and interact with the game board and each other. Players will be able to roll dice, move their pieces, buy and sell properties, collect rent, and perform all the actions that are part of the classic Monopoly board game.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: Next.js (React-based framework)

  • The game board, player interactions, and UI will be handled by Next.js.
  • The game will include components such as the Monopoly board, player tokens, property details, and game controls (roll dice, buy property, etc.).

• Backend: NestJS (Node.js framework)

  • The server-side logic, including game state management, player turns, property ownership, and rules, will be implemented using NestJS.
  • WebSocket-based communication between players and the server will handle real-time updates for all players.

• Real-Time Communication: WebSockets

  • WebSockets will enable real-time communication between the server and all connected clients, ensuring that all players can see live updates (e.g., dice rolls, moves, property purchases, etc.).
  • We'll use either Socket.IO or the NestJS WebSocket module to manage connections and broadcasts.

Online Monopoly Game - MVP Completed 🎉

The MVP of the Monopoly game project has been successfully implemented! All planned core features are functional, though some bugs remain, and we're actively working on fixing them.

🔹 How to Play

To enjoy the Monopoly experience, gather a group of four registered players (each with a verified email). Follow these simple steps to start playing:

1. Go to the Main Page and click the "Play" button.
2. Create a Game Room or join an existing one.
3. Once all four players are connected, you’ll be automatically redirected to the /game page.
4. Enjoy playing Monopoly in real time!
