Hey Casual Gamers!
What a great time to love Monopoly! There’s a new way to play on your phone or tablet!
If you are an avid fan of The Casual App Gamer (thank you kindly!) we enjoy covering all types of Monopoly games this casual app seems to have what the others are lacking.
Is this really worth your casual time? Let’s break the bank and buy into this casual review!
Gameplay
Monopoly Go! plays just like your favorite board game but with a few various twists. Players can pick a token an start rolling dice immediately, but rolls become a limited resource.
As proprieties are landed on, income is given via monopoly money. This money can then be used to build houses and hotels on random properties across the board via landmarks on a shared board.
Other players come into the mix as random tokens on the board. When you land on a property they are visiting, that player pays rent based on the houses or hotel that is on the property.
Naturally, this explanation can be a bit much, but in a few dice rolls, everything comes rather naturally and easy!
Graphics
Monopolgy Go! has the looks that keeps you playing! I suppose that’s part of the allure of paying for items, but Scopely has done a great job of making every part of this casual app eye candy.
I wish there was more to say other than this is a great piece of art. The attention to detail is one of the major reasons I continue to log in everyday.
This casual app should and is the staple for all board games to come!
Music
While it’s stated, Monopoly Go! should be played with your best headphones. There’s enough bells and whistles to allow players to walk away and know what’s going in via SFX.
There’s also rather festive BGM to keep the mood casual, yet playful. I wish there was something I could talk bad about, yet this is just one of those gems that covers all avenues of casual play.
Nothing does my casual gaming better than being able to look away from my phone and still know what’s going on via sounds.
Controls
One thing that keeps a great casual app awesome is simple controls! Monopoly Go! doesn’t have much for fancy controls, and thankfully doesn’t need it.
A simple push of rolling the dice is all that’s needed. Outside of a few Railroad games and landmarks there’s not really much to worry about managing. Just put your faith in the button and roll!
There’s also auto timers on collected items that acquire for the player. With this and automatic rolling, it’s a great time to make that sandwich you’re craving for while you play. Just don’t forget to pick your favorite boxes for heisting your friend’s bank when you come back to your phone!
The Power of in-app Purchases
Now, for the real question of all casual apps; how much will this “free” app cost me? The pricing points for Monopoly Go! is rather flexible. That is to say, there’s a huge amount of options to spend money.
Players can purchase dice, money, or stickers for your album which in return will reward with more money and dice rolls. There’s other ways to receive dice rolls, money, and even stickers without making a purchase.
This casual app is full of free items via events, daily log ins, and other in-game methods. Not to mention there’s a helpful website that helps redeem free dice rolls and other helpful items!
Unless there’s a casual push to the top of the leaderboard, there’s not a great reason to make a purchase.
That said, the sales are rather plentiful and cost effective. Go, beat your friends!
The Verdict
Overall, keep Monopoly Go! on your phone for the foreseeable future! With a Facebook, Instagram, and Discord social media helping players connect with others to finish albums and find new friends, this is one casual app that keeps players wanting more!
It also pays to play during holidays and special events as they tend to give the free dice rolls in large amounts! The more friends that join via social media, the more free dice are given.

Happy gaming, and as always, keep it casual!
