How to Play

Starting the Model.GameTests

• Launch the application to access the main menu.
• Choose the number of players (2-4).

Gameplay Overview

• Players take turns rolling dice to move around the board.
• Depending on the landed property, players can buy, pay rent, or draw cards.
• The objective is to accumulate wealth and bankrupt opponents.

Controls

• Use on-screen buttons to roll dice, manage properties, and end turns.
• Follow in-game prompts for specific actions.

Design Patterns used

Model, View, Control design pattern as the pattern for the entire project. There is a seperation of concerns between each componenet which has its own responsibilities.

• Model: Handles all game data
• View: Graphical User Interface
• Controller: Bridges Model and View

Singleton Pattern is used in the Banker, GameBoard, Deck, Dice, and Game

Progress Report

The majority of the project works correctly. The way that some of the controllers are implemented causes the gameplay when inside of the GUI to be incorrect. While the logic of the actual game passes all of the tests, that implementation still needs adjustment.
