How To Play City Racers
Establish A Team And Collect Flags
As with most of the racing events in Monopoly Go these days, your first order of business in City Racers this month is deciding if you’replaying on a team or by yourself. There’s no right or wrong way to compete in the event, but just keep in mind that solo players are racing for smaller grand prizes than team racers, so keep your eyes on the prize when making your decision.
If you are teaming up, you’ll want to considerteaming up with the most active players on your friends list. Once the races have begun, you’re locked into competing with these three teammates for the duration of the event, but you can choose toleave your team before race one startsif you’re unhappy with the setup.
Other players can invite friendsto the team, too, so keep this in mind when choosing friends to partner with. There’s no in-game communication between teammates, so it’s best to either choose people you know in real life or settle in with the more active players on your friends list. If they’ve usually got shields when you go to shut them down, they’re probably a good choice!
As you’re building your team and getting ready for the races to formally begin, you’ll want tocollect City Racers flag tokenswith the time leading up to the races (and over the weekend as well, to replenish what you spend playing).

Compete In Three Races To Win Prizes
With tokens in hand, you’re ready to start spending your flag tokens to compete in City Racers! Choose a dice roll multiplier the same way you would on your normal Monopoly Go game boards androll three dice at onceto contribute to the score and move your team’s car around the racetrack.
The weekend’s event is broken down intothree individual races, with one race happening each day beginning on April 3 and running through the end of the event on April 6. You’llearn points in each racebased on which place you finished, and the rewards for City Racers will be paid out on April 6 at the conclusion of the event.
We’ve also got a new obstacle to contend with: theBall and Chain. This lap reward willreduce another team’s roll by half, so it’s helpful to put one on a team that’s close to catching up to yours (or on the first place team to help catch up).
The top prize for both team and solo players is theChamp board token, aracer in a victorious posethat will confidently strut around your game board, as well as anew emojithat features arace car burning rubberas it takes off at the start of the race. The final City Racers reward of note is a new chance at aWild Sticker, letting youchoose any stickerno matter its rarity to receive as a prize.

The final race of the event is worth double points, so if you notice you’re falling behind early in the event and can’t quite catch up to the other teams, it may be wise to save your flags for the next race instead of hoping to best the other teams this time around, especially with the third race being worth double the points!
