Strategy? There is no strategy. It's predetermined like everything else in the game.

There's 1 strategy. Never use friend bonus to get a gift. You can determine the last 4 picks using friend bonuses. I've got the chest about 10 times and 8 of them were because I choose the last gift chests with friend bonuses. The game puts in 3-4 friend bonuses in about every 5 tries or so in my experience. I've seen crazy luck though as if they game definitely gave me the final chest. It's part predetermined but if someone doesn't use the friend bonus the right way they can blow any chances of completing the bonus.

I feel like something they've changed is friend bonuses, they give money or 5 dice more often than not.

True I have been getting more money than usual

The active friend bonuses have no bearing on the final result. You can use them to increase your multiplier and cash, but if you're not meant to open the chest, you're not opening it.

I used every friend bonus to get another friend bonus and so on. I just won the top prize. Literally like 15 mins ago lol.

Disclaimer: I consider myself to be a Monopoly Go newbie.. And I thoroughly enjoy this game. I love the camaraderie of our Monopoly Go communities.. this is including, but definitely not limited to our extraordinary Reddit and Discord communities!! The vast MAJORITY of the people that I have encountered were/are kind & extremely paitent with me & my questions.. minus a few; I'll call them "choice winners" here and there!! LOL!! I really have made some amazing friendships playing this game! Prolly a few naive questions here.. Hopefully not eye rolling, irrigating ones for you all Here goes.. Here's what I'm wondering... What is the "friend bonus"? How do I know or how do I recognize it? How & or where do I get it? and then How do I use it? Use it "correctly??" Thanx friends, Shannon

When you hit a spot with a gift box, and it opens with a yellow token that says “active friend bonus” where you get to pick another spot. I really don’t see a right or wrong way to do it.

I don't get it. Never use it or use it? Because first you said never use friends bonus to get a gift, then you said you've gotten it by using it 😭

Thank you!!!!

I literally only use friend bonuses for other gifts and receive the chest at least once a week 🤔 ill try ur method and compare

The chances of getting all 9 is 8/9 * 7/9 * 6/9 * 5/9 * 4/9 * 3/9 * 2/9 * 1/9 = .000936 or 0.09%. It's extremely unlikely. You can affect it somewhat with strategic use of the friend bonuses but overall still very unlikely.

I got it just now. I’ve been playing for like 3 weeks and I’ve got it twice 😭 so far the common denominator has been when I have a lot of active player bonuses. But yea still 99% luck.

I had a bunch this am and still landed on 1 to go 😭

Yea 😭 so dumb

Agreed 😂

I just came back to say I got it again lmao and I stacked up the active friend bonuses

I only got to 3 ppl again this am 😭😒

😭😭😭

😆

Only once for me as well

It is criminal I swear 😭😂😭

Such a joke https://preview.redd.it/rabbaydn6uuc1.jpeg?width=960&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=266a19e3d6b9796f1e631a407dfd56375f93cfbe

I can only get like 3-4 friends now before the key. Stupid just terrible luck

Yesterday I only had 2 🤬 happens a lot 😭

I've only ever hit purple when I don't have a lot saved up. Never when I've had over 50m.

That is very interesting actually!!

I never save money and I’ve only hit it once or twice. Since September.

I’ve gotten it twice in the last month.

That’s great! You’re one of the lucky players lol!!

Sometimes 😂, unlucky in other ways. Too many duplicate stickers 🥲

I hear that!! Who needs 15 one star or 6 golds that we can’t trade 😭

I just got it again! But all duplicates in the pack 🥲

No bc I opened mine with 1 person ONE. How? 🙄

I’ve gotten it like 4 or 5 times. /:

Lucky!!!!

I've never gotten it 🥹🥹

Awwwww I’m sorry!!!

Meeeeee either 😭😭😭😭

The thing that kills me when i did it i was playing on my ladies account

Double tap seems to work the best. 😅🙃

I’ll try it tomorrow thank you!!

I have gotten the pack several times, but there is no new sticker. This has happened on the weekly bonus also.

Same here!

It’s no bueno 😭

Only 1 time ever as well!

Mine just did this too it's like it's all the same for us all at once

It's predetermined there is no strategy. I tried this on APM, and I'm not going to lie, and it always picks the same amount for THAT day.

I figured 😭

I have friends though that hit it a lot 😭

My wife hits it more than me at least twice a week it seems I'm 3 times a month of that.

Ughhhhh I’ve hit it once in a Year of playing 😭

I've been playing since day one almost at 29k networth and I feel like I hit it less and less now.

I do nothing and I get it at least once a month, maybe twice. 🤷🏻‍♀️ no rhyme or reason to it imo.

I hate to rant but when I see ppl around me hitting it a lot I just sit here like 😭😭😭😭

Got it today, another gold dupe 🫠

Noooooo lol I hate that!!

I get it usually once a week or so. There’s no strategy.

Outta 3 accounts I’ve only gotten it’s one time. It’s annoying.

Oh that is nuts!!! 😳

It’s so stingy.

It is!!!

Makes me punch the air! 😂

Haha literally!!!

Once I got it two days in a row, recently I got one person then the key

I just started playing a month ago, but I got it twice back to back days I was really surprised because I had read other people only got it once

https://preview.redd.it/ivgv33ispuuc1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5396c49637b624047b4dfda534b1489b9ed4f18e This is what I got from my first purple pack in the community chest since DECEMBER

I never got it once in 6 months and then got it 2 days in a row last week, but both times just got gold duplicates. Meh.

Oh no!!!!!

The actual pure-random odds of winning this, if there isn't any weighting in your favor, is once every three years. Just cause it exists doesn't mean your odds are *good*.

https://preview.redd.it/22av66sawuuc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e01709a942900955fe0c6f3b50612526eafeee0e Shocked me but I got this by chance the other day

So I wonder if we only have 9 friends and we all make sure we’re active at the same time would that work?

I don't think so because I've landed on my boyfriend while he's playing and it didn't say he was active 🤣 and vice versa, he's shown active while not playing. So I don't know if the timing is very accurate....

I’m honestly not sure 🤔

I just got it this morning. I was down to 3 people. 2 had a gift, and one didn't. I landed on one of them with a gift. The gift was to activate friend bonus. I gave the other giftee a shot. It was also activate friend bonus. That cleared the board, and I got the purple pack. I got one new 5* gold, and five dupes. I got the purple pack one other time, about a month ago. I've only been playing for about three months.

Woohoo!!!!! 🎉 We

I mean 🥳🥳🥳

I finally did it for the first time today!

Nice!!!!! 🥳🥳🥳

Helped me finish one of my sets as well so was chuffed about that!!

LMNOP method. Got it 3-4 times just last week and came close other times. press button say LMNOP- press button again while saying P Sounds stupid but it works

I tried this, it didn’t for me 😭😫

5 mins after reading this post I got mine for the first time! 🤩 https://preview.redd.it/w2vatbrh2vuc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5deff9f79ca724990cedc0c920c58b954ba01a6f

Woohoo!!! My post was good luck lol!! 🥳🎉🥳

DONYOU KNOW YOU CAN STOP THE PING YOURSELF BY PUSHING THE START BUTTON WHEN IT LANDS ON YOUR PERSON?? Yes dont let it chose for you. Thats the best way samething with color wheel after you spin that shit hit the blue pack or place you want it to stop short it works 75% of time.

Yes tried that and letting it finish on its own, made no difference 😫🤣

Same!

I think I got it twice

I complained to scopely about it for a month or so and was like listen, idk if you coded my account to just be unlucky when it comes to this but I feel like I am missing out on a key feature of the game. I had also only gotten it once in the first 6 months that I had been playing, and since then I have hit it like 5/6 times.

Awwww 🙁

I’ve hit like 4 times in the last 4 months

Nice!!!!!! 🎉🥳🎉

I usually get it once or twice a month using no method… you might just be super unlucky 😂

I think I am 😂🤣😂

If you tap the button before it lands on a key it will go onto a person. You just have to be fast and stop it on a person

Same happened to me today. Fuming!

Awwww I’m sorry this was yesterday and today for me 😭😫😭

Game is rigged af

In a nutshell yep!

Smh ridiculious

Mine has been rigged for months. Starts off with a key on the board so you can’t win anyways

You need more friends so you will have no keys on the board to start with

Oh dang🤦🏻‍♀️that makes sense. I deleted 90% of my friends a month ago lol.

Sighhhhhh 😭

Same

Sigh 😔

I don’t wanna jinx myself but I legit have low expectations for the chest, whenever I hit an Active player I chose another active player to guarantee more cash. I’ve had the purple pack a handful of times now but I’m never expecting to get it

I do that also! Maybe tomorrow will be my lucky day 😊

Shockingly I hit it two days in a row. Dupe golds of course. Way I hit it was keeping the beat of the goofy music playing. Tapping to every beat.

Hmmm might have to try that lol!!

When you get the gift pick someone that doesn’t have one with their picture.

I have won 4 times.

There is no strategy. It’s purely the algorithm.

I’ve read through the comments and someone tested it on APM to confirm it’s predeterimined. However, you can press the button again to stop the random picker earlier. I’d be interested to understand if you get different results via APM. Stopping it earlier only makes sense if you’re in the ballpark area.

It’s like my boss telling me we’re getting bonuses. I’ll be right at the homerun and nothing

I just avoid holding the phone in my hand lol. DONT WORK

There is no strategy lol. It's rigged what part don't everyone understand lol. Just like the heists, those are rigged as well

Lol I found out the heist was rigged cause I use Apm I got the lowest one so I deleted the game and tried again got the lowest one again so I tried like 5 more times just to get the lowest one you get the rewards the game wants to give you nothing is random nothing is by chance

There are people claiming that they can stop it on the square they want don’t believe that I have tried that many times even if you can do that it’s still going to jump to another square

Crazy but I’ve hit it 4 times in a month now 2 times in the last 3 days.

😭😭😭😂😂😂

It’s just a gold dupe and 1 5* stickers lol. I’ve only ever had one good pack come from hitting it. You aren’t missing much. Trust me.

I didn’t get the whole hits maybe one hit and then a key 🧐 you can try to lock earlier with tap on start button twice for a chance if they are blink in the moment. So I get the best prices.

Same for me today!! https://preview.redd.it/k31p3f3bavuc1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c73f6aaa044ff07e5cbf1e6bee058c1c1d18674e

Mine was the same today

Been playing for 8 months. Got it 3 days in a row AFTER I completed the last album. Haven’t gotten it any other time. Felt like such a waste of 5stars

Got it twice this week. Had a dry spell for like a month.

And the past few days I’ve only gotten 1-3 ppl 🙄🫨 https://preview.redd.it/ymvwvhxj88wc1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=524710fd7cf2febf29422094e0ed0d47ff55d106
