How To Play Snow Racers
Gather Snow Racers Flags In Other Events And Build Your Team On Day One
To participate in the Snow Racers event this week in Monopoly Go, you’ll first need togather Snow Racers flags from other events and collections. These include but aren’t limited to:
You’ll need at least 20 Snow Racers flags to roll the dice, but you can choose to roll more at the cost of using more flags by increasing the multiplier beside the dome containing your three dice.
As you gather your Snow Racers flags to get ready for whenthe racing begins on January 9 at 11AM EST, be sure to check your friends list in the Snow Racers event tab to work onbuilding a team of four playersfor the event. you may opt to leave your team all the way up until the racing begins, too, so don’t feel trapped if you end up with a team you’re unhappy with - you can back out of the team and re-suggest friends and other players as normal.
Your best bet for choosing teammates during the Snow Racers event is topartner up with the most active players on your friends list. If there’s a player you know you’re often able to hit successfully during Shutdown minigames on the Railroad tiles, it may be best to look elsewhere for a partner. SinceSnow Racers is scored based on how you place in each of the three races, you’ll want to have the most active players on your team to help you carry the weight of competing.
Use Your Flags To Spin Around The Snow Racers Track To Win Prizes
As you begin to use the Snow Racers flags you’ve been collecting, you’ll notice thatyour team earns lap rewards for completing a certain number of lapsaround the Snow Racers racetrack. These start off as fairly low milestones, but they do get progressively higher as each race goes on.These rewards are individualized, meaning everyone on your team can choose whichever Snow Racers rewards they’d like when it’s time to pick from the lap rewards.
However,the grand prizes for the event are both cumulative and shared. This means that all four of you on your team are sharing the point total, so whenpoints are tallied at the end of the eventon January 12, once all three races are completed, you and your teammates willeach receive the event rewardyou earned together for placing first, second, third, or fourth, depending on how your team scored throughout the event.
The game will keep track of which place you finish in during each race and show you a cumulative tally after every race. As such,you may not want to spend all your flags during the first race, since you’ve still got two more to compete in throughout the weekend and the first race is the easiest race for which you’ll be earning Snow Racers flags.
At the end of each race, check out where your team finished so you know what kind of points you’ll need for the races ahead if you’d like to end the Snow Racers event this weekend in Monopoly Go with the top prize, which include a new board token, a new wintry racing emoji, a Wild Sticker to allow you to choose any sticker you’re missing from the soon-endingJingle Joy albums, and a Purple Sticker Pack to offer your best chance andearning a rare new stickerbefore the Jingle Joy season ends on January 16.
Play With A Team Of Four, Or Play By Yourself (For Different Prizes)
For the first time, we’re now able to opt intoplaying Snow Racers on a one-person teaminstead of partying up with three others! If you like playing the Tycoon Racers events in Monopoly Go but often find yourself feeling let down by teammates who don’t quite pull their weight when it comes to earning and spending flags for the team, you can instead opt into being the master of your own Snow Racers destiny!
To choose to play by yourself instead of with a team, simplytick the slider at the bottom of the partner invite screenthat says"I want to play solo!“When you toggle the button for this option, you’ll receive a pop-up asking if you’re sure of your decision. To confirm, click the orange"Race Solo"button at the bottom of the pop-up, and the game will instead put you on a team of one,pairing you with other solo racersinstead of making you hope to compete in a one-versus-four-player Tycoon Racers event.
you’re able to opt into this until the racing begins on January 9, whether you’ve joined a team yet. It appears as thoughyou’ll still earn the two cosmetics offered as the championship rewardsshould you place first - the Snowmobile board token and the new Winter Racing emoji - butthe sticker packs you’ll receive are differentif you choose to go the race alone. Where team players earn a Wild Sticker and a purple sticker pack, your top prize includes a blue and pink sticker pack instead.
How To Get And Use Lucky Rockets
A new boost added to the partner racing events in Monopoly Go this time around, in addition to being able to play by yourself, is the introduction of theLucky Rocket lap bonusoption. This is primarily found as alap reward optionwhen you complete a certain number of laps around the board, and when one of you chooses the boost,everyone on the team gets to use the Lucky Rocket on their next turn.
When the Lucky Rocket is in effect, you’ll see that youcan only roll four, five, or sixon the three dice within the spinner on the Snow Racers game board. When you have the Lucky Rocket is agood time to increase your multiplierif you’ve got enough extra Snow Racers flags to do so - since you can’t roll lower than a 12, you’re guaranteed to bring in a good number of points on your next roll!
