As the game progresses, tens of thousands of players from around the world are banging on the doors of the developers demanding to know the answers to their questions – surprising when there is already quite a comprehensive Monopoly City Streets FAQ page here.
We’ve been reading the forums and blogs to try and find out what the most popular questions are that are not already addressed in the FAQ page above. So here goes…
Q. Can a bonus building be destroyed?
A. Yes, a bonus building can be destroyed and then a hazard can be placed on your street. It kinda sucks, but all a bonus building can do is prevent a hazard being placed, once it’s destroyed your competitors can place unlimited number of hazards on your road. We recommend keeping at least two bonus buildings on your most valuable streets and filling up the rest with buildings.
Q. Can I save my demolition chance cards to be used later?
A. No, you have to use your chance cards as soon as you get them otherwise they will be lost.
Q. If I forget to login one day, will my rent accrue for the next time I login?
A. No, you have to login every day to get your rent money. If you skip a day, you will lose all the rent you would have earned for that day – set a reminder to login to your account, even if you don’t have time to do anything, just don’t lose out on a days rent!
Q. Can I have more than one account?
A. We’re still waiting for official word from Mr. Monopoly, but in all likelyhood if you are using your additional accounts to try and cheat the system, you will probably be banned. If you have an account, your brother / sister has an account, then it probably won’t be an issue. We’d like to see the developers bring in an SMS verification system as this would be harder to cheat than just an email verification system.
Q. What’s the best strategy to use?
A. People are still trying to figure out and understand the game, but there is already some discussion on the best Monopoly City Streets strategy in our fourms.
Q. How much do I earn each day?
A. You earn a ’salary’ of $1m every day (which is rather nice! I wish I was a Monopoly tycoon!) plus rental income from your streets and buildings. You earn approximately 10% of the street value and the amount you earn from your buildings depends on the length of the road and building type.
Q. How are the value of the roads calculated? I see a street in New York costs the same as in my small town in Ohio…how??
A. The game values the road based on the length, not on the prestige or apparent value in real life. So that sleepy undeveloped stretch of road near your town is probably worth more than Wall Street and Rodeo Drive in Monopoly City Streets!
