Monopoly Secrets

If you even play Monopoly City Streets occasionally, I’m sure you’ve noticed the occasional HUGE fines by now.

What’s the deal? Are they truly tied to percentage of your current balance? (Some have suggested it’s 75%.) Sure, these fines are part of the original game, but taking 75% of your balance every day–isn’t that a little much?

Scott shared a great strategy to minimize the impact of these fines. What’s yours? And what’s the most you’ve been fined?

Is anybody else noticing a significant decrease in chance cards?

It seems that I’m hardly getting any these days, especially when compared with before the restart. This makes it a lot harder to get bonus buildings, which makes the game a lot more risky for me.

I’m curious what the chance is you’ll get a chance card for each move you make–1%? 2%? 5%? No official word yet on that.

At the same time, any chance card I discard, I’m still getting the option to use it again the next time a sign in. Sometimes it’s annoying, but it can also be helpful when I decide I really DO want to use that demolition card!

This just in!

A leaked new chance card reveals that players will be able to go to jail in the new version of the game:

That’s an interesting twist. This could have a significant effect on gameplay if players are taken out of the game for any amount of time. No news yet on how long you would stay in jail or how you could get out.

What do you think the Monopoly City Streets jail might look like?
