  1. Dear games developers,
    Can you please let me know when there is an app of this game. I am a teacher and would like pupils to play ökolopoly, however please an English version would be favoured.
    We need games like ökolopoly in order to nourish a healthy educational input in terms of computer games/ mobile phone apps for future generations.
    Kind regards
