monopd is a dedicated game server daemon for playing Monopoly-like board games. Clients such as Atlantik and gtkAtlantic connect to the server, which manages the game. Note that you do not need to install this server unless you want to use one of the clients offline, or play custom game types. . Currently supported board games are Monopoly(R) and Atlantic, a variation on Monopoly(R), and you can design your own game boards using atlantikdesigner. Efforts are under way to generalize monopd even more and eventually support a multitude of board games.
