Hi, unfortunately it's not that easy, especially as the java version doesn't seem to be available in a ready-to-play format. Privately (and not as an employee of a company) I would suggest you upgrade Windows to the latest version (provided you own a legal copy it should be a free upgrade) and then either install Micropolis for Windows from the Microsoft Store or Retro City. Both are free apps, Micropolis for Windows has been developed by me as a port of the Java version. Playing one of these apps has the advantage that you do not need to install additional software, such as Java.

Hi,

A java build of the last version (1.7) is available here: MicropolisJ 1.7

You should have Java installed on your computer, then you can launch the game by double-clicking on the micropolisj.jar file.

How do I run micropolis under Ubuntu 18.04 ? perhaps you should investigate whether a wiki, detailing the installation would be very beneficial or not ?

V. inclined to suggest that it is.
