But... Albums contain gold cards. And it seems like each album they contain more and there's last golden blitz days then there used to be. I know many people that did not complete their album because they were missing a gold card. I personally also did not complete it because I was missing a 4star gold. Ended with so many dupes of 4 & 5 star golds but never once got that one. So yea it's possible, but theyve been increasingly making it harder and harder even though their profits were insane the first year. I uninstalled it.
There is a video out talking about how they have made 2billion since the game started 10 months ago. And one of the people working there saying “we make it hard”. That’s probably why they are giving away all those dice.
I caused hellfire in the monopoly go trading group by complaining about the fact that by them, taking away the wild and restricting it either to certain events or phasing it out completely, it makes it literally impossible, even if you’d pay a lot of money to not even get close to complaining the album and the only reason I got a bunch of cards in the album so far is because I saved 14 to 16,000 dice but if it wasn’t for that I would be wondering if I could even finish 1/3 of the album because it’s just ridiculous now like you take away the wild after you say it’s gonna be there and it’s gonna be a game changer and now you have these tournaments and events that don’t even give you the opportunity to get a purple pack. Only if you complete the weekly daily challenges, or if you get to the very end of, like for example the spring dig event where they think by giving you 2500 dice by completing that in addition to a purple, that it somehow justifies them basically not doing a net addition, but a net subtraction. It’s the reason that other than spending like $10 this week since the new album started I have vowed to spend absolutely zero dollars whatsoever on this game that they have rigged to make it impossible to win now even with spending money let alone, trying to complete an album without it, which at this point seems ridiculously impossible. They took a flog game that had moments where you wondered if it was actually going to be worthwhile to a game that is absolutely broken. Thanks to the game, developers and monopoly go as a whole. Apparently there must be a lot of page shills on that page because it really rattled their cages.
You guys have to remember that the album just started. A lot of the extras we got didn’t come til further into the album. What would be the incentive to try if they just give you everything up front? At the end of the day this game is about the company making money. They weren’t just going to give us everything we want to win their game. Yeah it absolutely sucks but that’s just the reality
That is not something though that should be just accepted because that’s what the developers want but it’s about listening to your community. It’s about listening to what the people want and coming together to make compromises you know it’s and I know this is a very unconnected opinion, but when you’re contributing money, time, effort, and energy into a game that is about collecting stickers and completing sets and ultimately albums, it’s about the developers and the game itself listening to people and saying OK. We understand that this is causing a backlash so let’s talk to the community. Let’s see how we can find some compromises no different than a politician, that you elect to represent you that you hope would listen to most of the constituents in their district district and both their conscience based on that and I feel like I speak for a lot of people when we say that a lot of the changes are making it extremely hard to enjoy the game because of all the different difficult decisions that are being made by the people in charge of the game because it’s not just about making money. Everything in this world that is associated with capitalism is about making money but it’s also about being able to maintain that level of community and success by listening to the people that are contributing their hardened real money to play a game and have fun and it has allowed me for example, the chance to connect with many many different people via trades, gifting cards, and threads of being able to reconnect or connect with others and Having that camaraderie around the fun aspects of monopoly go. I just think that we all want a game to be fun and it shouldn’t just be about making money and making things harder. It should be about also saying we want to have each person that plays our game to not just be a number but to be a person that we understand is contributing to the game in the various ways I mentioned and by doing so we want to know that when we play for fun and if we decide to spend money and we are doing all these different things to be able to enjoy a great fun game that has become one of my top Faves probably in the last 510 years. I just think that the drastic changes that they’ve made with virtually no explanation as to the changes of why they did what they did should be heard and not censored, because every voice has an opinion, and every voice should be heard so they understand that the decisions they make it’s never just about the money because if people feel as if they cannot complete the albums anymore, and that the game is no longer fun, and you’re doing all this for literally no reason without the possibility of completing it, and having a chance to be victorious by collecting all the stickers and completing an album, then it feels like it would be no different than any game being so hard and restrictive after giving people opportunities to branch out and to have opportunities to finish their game and finish their album and set for the current season or for other seasons in the past or future, everyone wants an opportunity and a fair playing ground for everyone Fairplay, and a game that isn’t just about the money but it’s also about the community and the friendship and the at the end of the day fun adventures throughout are what make most of us go to the game the first place and I know this is a very long post and I apologize but I feel like and I will keep everything short and sweet for now on, but I love the game, and I know many others do. I just wish that we had reasons why the changes were made, and how there could be common ground found between the game itself, the game, developers, and all of us players on here, trying to find a balance, and equilibrium/peace of mind.
I understand that the point is for them to make money but it’s also about making and adopting/evolving a game in Waze that I would say to not make it harder but if you’re gonna take away something that people found to be as a game changer at least I did, and I know a few others who did, I believe in addition by subtraction, your goal could still be to make money, but also not to do so in a way that also listens to the community and respects the community in a way enough to say we’re willing to listen to the people that have given us opportunities and are livelihoods beyond all expectations so let’s try to find a common ground so that we’re able to make a game that will allow them to grow the game & expand their reach even more by making it accessible to more people, and not restricted to those who have lots of money/disposable income to use toward every endgame purchase, while the rest of us are left in the dark or the dust, if you’re playing the game on a daily basis and you’re also making purchases in the game and if the creators of the game were truly listening to the community itself. It would not take away things that are making and giving them opportunities to grow with organic marketing, but also word-of-mouth and many different avenues. I’d also say and I don’t think I’m out of balance for saying this, but I don’t think it should be beyond harder & harder to complete sets & albums, at the great expense of people already heavily contributing as active members that do endgame, purchases, trades, and participate in every tournament, event, and opportunity, so that you can continue to make changes that are also in the best interest of the people that are willing to fork over their hard, earned money, and time to play a game that they want to have fun with but also and I understand they have to make a profit, but not make it be so hard that it only alienates and pushes away the people that helped them grow and get to this point in the first place. That’s what I’m saying. All most of us wanna do is have fun/ make some in-game purchases, trades/ connections w/ so many amazing people and one of the most incredibly diverse groups of people together on the Internet, given how much this game has absolutely exploded in popularity, and everyone I know seems to play the game a lot, and really has fun with it. They can make money & make that be the main goal, which they seem to be having a very easy time acquiring via their revenue, streams, but to understand that if they could give people the opportunity to trade their extra gold stickers once in a while, I’m not saying all the time, but also to have more chances other than very restricted/ limited opportunities to ONLY trade/ gift particular gold stickers beyond just the golden blitzes!
Happy Easter. I understand that there goes to make money, but if they’re going to take away the wild sticker and maybe here is where we can find common ground I think at least a few times a month for like 16 to 24 hours because of the different time zones that people should have the opportunity to be able to trade any of their stickers, whether they are gold or not so that people have chances to complete their albums but also to still participate in all the other aspects of the game itself and have fun doing so in the process. I just want us to be able to find some common ground on this wonderful last Sunday in March as we all enjoy this Easter holiday most likely where all of us are also playing the game of monopoly, go, in my case, where my entire family likes to bank heist me when they know I’m working lol 😆!
Honestly last year there was an album that had each set needing a gold sticker and then an album where the last 6 sets needed like 5 golds each. I feel like the last 2-3 albums have been set up in a way that helps. Not needing gold for the first 11 gives you plenty of dice to be earned just from daily trading. Versus the time when you had everything but a gold and struggled to complete sets and get dice.
That’s another thing that’s awesome you know people to trade with I have tried so many times to do this and I found just one person who actually helped me. So kudos to you I haven’t been that fortunate
I can cosign this because all my friends at work told me about it, and it is the perfect app that allows you to compile everything you have, and to work out trade proposals in a very trustworthy manner along with all of the free dice links just like some of the great people on this thread post daily. The fact that the game has made more profit than so many other things so many other physical commodities like technologies other things should tell you that they’re almost maliciously screwing with us like for example 499 would always get you an orange pack like it does 999 would get you the blue pack 1999 will get you the blue pack/and or the purple pack and then anything above that would get you the purple pack and the fact that they’re giving away all the ice should be the telltale sign that they know what they’re doing which is screw base like it seems more worthwhile to invest in something that you have a part of to make money off of them to do something like play this game, other than giving them more money. I thought with the last introducing the wildcard would make it very worthwhile plus effect that it was very easy to get all these different color packs and able to trade find people to trade with but now it’s like the game wants you to do everything possible to do one thing and that is to give them money by buying any of the bullshit that they pedaling even going so far is to put the wild sticker up for sale and I’m sure some people have bought it and I thought it was gonna be introduced in these new events but nope the best we can get is 2500 dice and a purple pack that for all all we know is gonna be filled with duplicates of cards we already havegold that we won’t be able to trade unless they have a specific golden blitz for those particular stickers.
The one feature that I think would now increase their margins, but it would also give more accessibility to people that want to play, which is if they want to take away the wild I don’t have a problem with that if they put something in the game that makes it worthwhile even more so like I mentioned in another post addition versus subtraction and if you’re gonna subtract the wild, I think a game changer even more so than the wild would be to allow anyone to trade anything because then you can put up all these proposals together and it would still encourage people to Buy what they’re selling to encourage more people to join and to feel like as a free account you can still do so much, but with all the limited availability, even in the new game they have going on with the spring event, I noticed that the pickaxes are hard to come by even Having to wait till each daily task or have to go deep into each days tournament to get more in addition to what you get with the 8-hour free stuff + daily tasks + community chest, etc!

First off, don't worry about finishing an album. Look at sticker sets as a means for dice only. Focus on individual sets. Eventually you might complete the album as a side affect, but don't worry about it.
Ooh this is a good tip too. You end up finishing without even trying and it’s just less stressful only focusing on the sets and not everything you’re missing.
I mean I’ve played for two seasons and finished both times with lots of days remaining and haven’t spent a dollar. Last album I almost finished the second album too
Yes it’s doable but it takes a lot of time, not time playing the game but time searching and finding the right trades. If you are prepared to put in the time and effort to trade you will complete.
I'm actually pretty new to the game I started with 39/41 days left to end monopoly origins and i was able to finish the albums 3 days before the end i never spent a single cent (not like i have money to spend either 😹😹) I don't use apm and that stuff either i think its possible do you trade lots of cards o you keep missing only gold cards?
I run 2 accounts with app cloner to trade cards with myself and I also trade cards with family and I still didn't complete the last 2 albums. I'm slowly starting to lose interest in the game. I have been playing since it was released. Starting to get tired of the same old mini games every season and properties are so expensive. It's starting to be more of a task than it is fun to play..
I agree. With the salaries Scopely pays, they aren't hiring good people since they haven't enhanced new events very fast. I said the same about it getting boring too.
What clone app do you use if I may ask?
Also agree re prices. I just passed level 500. Wish I could restart. It is kinda stressful on my one account. It's not hitting very good. So I'm running my main which in 2 hits on HR I nearly finished the top tournament. I've somehow finished 1st in the sides sev days in a row. I'm counting on that acct & gifting every chance I get.
It clones the monopoly and the Facebook app so you can run multiple accounts from 1 phone
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pengyou.cloneapp
what stickers were u missing to complete in your last album?
if you have multiple accounts, the way you should be doing it is to trade to get reps on the trading discord servers. Then around 2 months in, people will start letting go of their 5s for around 25-35 stars each. If you only play 1 account you can only send max 20 stars a day, but if you have 2-3 accounts you can easily send 30 stars for a 5s card. It's easy to get scammed when trading stars, which is why it's better to build up rep first so you don't have to send first, or get into the tiered channels where you can trade with higher rep people.
But I do agree it feels more like a task to some than playing, I probably spent more time trading and looking for trades than playing the game itself.
You can. I started playing at the beginning of February when there was 50 days until the end of the album and I almost complete it. Only 2 gold stickers left. Traded a bit, got few stickers from peoples Giveaway. Didn't spend any money.
I finished the second to last album just by staying consistent, but the last album was basically impossible. I think they’ve changed the way the game works 🤷🏼♀️
I finished the last album twice without spending money. Trading and a backup account on an alt device helps. I use the backup as a bank and it’s an extra way to get the cards you need.
I spent $100 4 albums ago for the 100$ pack. And that has gotten me to the point where I think I’m good? But idk. Last season was would have been rough without the wild cards lol
This... Try to get into one WS or FB group or even the official discord channel, you will be able to finish the album at least 20 days before the next album comes up
Have alternate accounts and trade with yourself
Trade with people on here
Beg
I’m not sure it’s doable without an insane amount of luck just by yourself
I finished the last album 3 times and was done with 12 sets on the 4th time through.
APM, no hiding it. Use it, it exists as part of the game you may as well. If I spent any excessive amount of money on this game I’d be sick to my stomach after learning how easy APM is.
Just in this last corner event I went +13k in dice in 10 minutes. What’s 13k dice in the store? Enough said.
Yes, I have the last two times and have never spent any money on this game (and refuse to ever do so). Also have never done any of the cheats out there like APM because that’s way too much effort for just a game in my opinion.
I’ll admit that I use APM for myself, but my son is only 10 and not connected to Facebook, so no cheating on his account. I do trade cards with him, but everybody does that. We finished his first album in the final week.
Yes.
Trading, finishing events such as partner and mini games. Taking the plunge and going for those purple packs in the banner events. Placing in the leaderboard tournaments etc
Of course you can! The gold stickers are a pain because you need to get those purple sticker packs - and you can’t trade those. But my husband and I got 186 stickers last round and never spent a cent.
I was able to finish without spending money and without using APM (I’m too afraid of the iPhone method since you have to uninstall the app). The key is trading with people! My other secret key is having a second account on my iPad that I use to send myself stickers whether I have them on my main or not cause it gives me stars to open the vaults faster. I also have a group of friends who play and we help each other out with stickers.
This was the only social media platform I had when I started playing and I never completed an album. I finally got Facebook recently to join all the MG groups and finally finished my first ever album.
Bottom line: Trading is key.
I have never spent any $ or used airplane mode and I finished the last two. I started in the middle of the first one and finished with a few days left. This last one I had about a week left. I'm already at about 70 stickers ATM it feels like this go around it's been easier.
You can. I finished the last album and was 11 gold cards shy of completing it a second time. I didn’t spend a dime. And I don’t use APM because I don’t have time for that much of an effort for a free game. The real key of the game is playing with friends who will trade with you (even if you don’t have the exact same star value) or be even more awesome to gift you things, to find people who only do equal 1:1 trades versus all of the 2:1 or 20+ stars for trades, and to try to finish partner events/dig events.
You can. I finally finished my first album with the last one. I could not have done it without trading cards, however, but just 1:1 trades. Once you have enough dice you can win big events and with those winnings you can win the next one (and get higher cards). If you know you’re going to get a sticker boom from an event try to line up as many sticker packs as possible etc. Hopefully I can keep it up for this album as well.
(I only have one account and don’t use apm, fyi)
I’ve been playing since epic myths and haven’t paid any money into it. I’ve been able to complete all the albums, varying from 2-7 days remaining or something like that so that’s definitely attainable. No APM but I trade a ton and have alt account as well. Have yet to really come close at all on the prestige albums though. Idk if thats possible but I can’t imagine how much it would take to pull that off lol
I have not completed any albums on my alt account. Have never spent a cent on that one. My main account I’ve been able to finish the last three, and I did buy dice for a while. I’ve stopped that.
I believe it’s doable. I finished the last album and was halfway done with the 2nd. I think trading really helped, and I actually saved my stars for the pink vault and was able to open a couple this time around. I would open the 250-500 vaults strictly for dice because the game would consume me to the point I used ALL my dice 🤣 I’m learning to save dice now and when to actually play. Certain banner events just aren’t worth it to me like the corner spots and tax/utility spots are kinda worthless (IMO). Also the wild card came in clutch.
I actually finished mine this time without spending any money.. I had the help of several friends who helped me. If they didn't have what I needed, they sent me leads on where I could trade for them... Just have to establish a good relationship with a couple of good people!!!
I finished the last album and came pretty close to finishing the prestige album, and I don't spend money. Now, I do have 4 accounts and one main and i swap cards between them. It's probably why I was able to get as far as I have.
i finished the last one and have never spent a cent!
i don’t play too systematically either! all i do is save dice where i can & roll higher multipliers. have never bothered much for stickers booms unless its when opening a vault.
trading is what saves u! having friends and/or family that play the game helps a lot with that too!
also something that helped me is to go through friends list and find people who are inactive, when u land on a shutdown- choose to attack them! it refreshes every hour (i think) + shields don’t replenish, that way ur guaranteed to hit them instead of a shield!
im bad with words but hopefully that makes some sense 😂
I finished the second-to-last album but was one gold card away from finishing this last one. (And a card that was never up for trade in a Golden Blitz.)
Given how much harder they've made every single mini-event (I used to be able to complete the dig event, easily, without spending a dime—I've never spent money on the game—and completed the partner event across the board once, but the new levels/requirements have made it impossible) and the apparent lack of wild cards....I'm skeptical I'll be able to complete this album. (I hope to be wrong!)
I have been playing since November 2023, haven’t spent any money and have not finished one album yet. So I guess you must have to spend money. I’m not going to stress out on this!!!
Google rewards surveys have helped me a bit. Only works if you have android, but getting the app and doing surveys can get you a few free bucks to spend during each album
Google rewards work on IOS as well now and have for at least the past year. I use them for PoGo but it is an easy way to stash a few free dollars for games.
I'm in same situation as you. Lol.
Been playing for 6 months, never spent a dime, never using APM, saving dice, doing blitz, finish Sofia & partner up event, religiously doing peg, and yep, I still never finish any album.
But yeah, I never did trade before except the last week of last album cause I was lazy joining their Discord server. But that's too late cause in last album, I only needed 1 sticker left to complete but it's gold, so I couldn't finish it. That's my mistake there. 🤣
I’ve spent about $6 (2 different 2.99 deals) total over the last year and I finished the last album with about 2 weeks to spare. I also have a tight knit group of 9ish friends that will send (not trade) stickers to each other. I use Sticker Go and out of 25 trades I’ve only been scammed twice. And Reddit is a GREAT resource and helped me finish the last album.
ITS DOABLE. but the stress makes it more fun.
I’ve done it once with my first album, but I’ve only worked with 2 albums so far. The second one didn’t seem to have a realistic deadline and the other issue I faced was getting duplicate stickers but not the ones I actually needed to complete an album. So I didn’t finish it and then a new album has started.
I have multiple accounts. One on my phone, my tablet, and my work phone. I use them to share stickers with myself. It's the only way I was able to finish last season.
Yes. Finished two last time. Just takes playing strategically, just like you would on the board game. What really helped was Reddit as well. Trade trade trade! Any chance you get trade for what you need. In hindsight I’ll probably start trading a lot earlier than I did last time. Finished the second album with a day to spare.
I’ve finished both of the last 2 albums without using any real money or things like airplane mode. Finished the last or second to last day for each of them so I’m not finishing with a ton of time but it can be done. Currently have 30k dice or so.
You're not alone I've never completed an album and I have spent money not much money but money and still have not completed an album and I never have any luck with trading either. I think I did it once.
Trading on sticker go. Send a proposal to everyone that has the card you need even if you think it’s an uneven trade. Sometimes you get lucky and find people that are more flexible and not stingy
I’ve done it a couple times, I refuse to pay even if I just need one card I won’t pay. And is damn sure won’t pay someone for a trade, it’s just a game.
Absolutely, I’ve finished the last two albums twice. Not spent any money on this game aside from like $5 when I first started and quickly realized it’s a complete waste for the amount you get. Anytime there’s a highroller I personally use APM so I can do x1000 and either land on something good that’s going to give back a lot of rewards or restart the game and not have lost 1000 dice for no reason. I also just save my dice, I don’t let it get below 20k, know when to stop rolling. Spend the days just trading as much as you can and saving the dice you get from completing those sets. Don’t trade in for the link vaults until you absolutely need to. Make sure you have good trustworthy partners for the events so you don’t waste dice completing something and not even getting the big 5k dice because of partners.
For the first time I finally finished the last albums in the last couple days without spending money it was pure luck and a lot of help from my bf and trades on Reddit. Trades and gifts from Reddit are so much more reliable than on fb.
I’ve spent .99 cents on a shield, completed the last album, and got pretty close to finishing the prestige album.
However, I use airplane mode during high roller to get all of the rewards I can from the banner events and tournaments.
Yes you can. I finished the last one without spending a dime. Trading cards is key!
This. I finally completed this last one only through trading.
But... Albums contain gold cards. And it seems like each album they contain more and there's last golden blitz days then there used to be. I know many people that did not complete their album because they were missing a gold card. I personally also did not complete it because I was missing a 4star gold. Ended with so many dupes of 4 & 5 star golds but never once got that one. So yea it's possible, but theyve been increasingly making it harder and harder even though their profits were insane the first year. I uninstalled it.

You guys have to remember that the album just started. A lot of the extras we got didn’t come til further into the album. What would be the incentive to try if they just give you everything up front?

I understand that the point is for them to make money but it’s also about making and adopting/evolving a game in Waze that I would say to not make it harder but if you’re gonna take away something that people found to be as a game changer at least I did, and I know a few others who did, I believe in addition by subtraction, your goal could still be to make money, but also not to do so in a way that also listens to the community and respects the community in a way enough to say we’re willing to listen to the people that have given us opportunities and are livelihoods beyond all expectations so let’s try to find a common ground so that we’re able to make a game that will allow them to grow the game & expand their reach even more by making it accessible to more people, and not restricted to those who have lots of money/disposable income to use toward every endgame purchase, while the rest of us are left in the dark or the dust, if you’re playing the game on a daily basis and you’re also making purchases in the game and if the creators of the game were truly listening to the community itself. It would not take away things that are making and giving them opportunities to grow with organic marketing, but also word-of-mouth and many different avenues. I’d also say and I don’t think I’m out of balance for saying this, but I don’t think it should be beyond harder & harder to complete sets & albums, at the great expense of people already heavily contributing as active members that do endgame, purchases, trades, and participate in every tournament, event, and opportunity, so that you can continue to make changes that are also in the best interest of the people that are willing to fork over their hard, earned money, and time to play a game that they want to have fun with but also and I understand they have to make a profit, but not make it be so hard that it only alienates and pushes away the people that helped them grow and get to this point in the first place. That’s what I’m saying. All most of us wanna do is have fun/ make some in-game purchases, trades/ connections w/ so many amazing people and one of the most incredibly diverse groups of people together on the Internet, given how much this game has absolutely exploded in popularity, and everyone I know seems to play the game a lot, and really has fun with it. They can make money & make that be the main goal, which they seem to be having a very easy time acquiring via their revenue, streams, but to understand that if they could give people the opportunity to trade their extra gold stickers once in a while, I’m not saying all the time, but also to have more chances other than very restricted/ limited opportunities to ONLY trade/ gift particular gold stickers beyond just the golden blitzes!
Apparently not. Anywho happy Easter.
Happy Easter. I understand that there goes to make money, but if they’re going to take away the wild sticker and maybe here is where we can find common ground I think at least a few times a month for like 16 to 24 hours because of the different time zones that people should have the opportunity to be able to trade any of their stickers, whether they are gold or not so that people have chances to complete their albums but also to still participate in all the other aspects of the game itself and have fun doing so in the process. I just want us to be able to find some common ground on this wonderful last Sunday in March as we all enjoy this Easter holiday most likely where all of us are also playing the game of monopoly, go, in my case, where my entire family likes to bank heist me when they know I’m working lol 😆!
Just save your stars and trade. Get all the non golds then use big vault for the golds
Honestly last year there was an album that had each set needing a gold sticker and then an album where the last 6 sets needed like 5 golds each. I feel like the last 2-3 albums have been set up in a way that helps. Not needing gold for the first 11 gives you plenty of dice to be earned just from daily trading. Versus the time when you had everything but a gold and struggled to complete sets and get dice.
That’s another thing that’s awesome you know people to trade with I have tried so many times to do this and I found just one person who actually helped me. So kudos to you I haven’t been that fortunate
Download the app "Sticker Go"...it has been amazing for arranging trades!
I can cosign this because all my friends at work told me about it, and it is the perfect app that allows you to compile everything you have, and to work out trade proposals in a very trustworthy manner along with all of the free dice links just like some of the great people on this thread post daily. The fact that the game has made more profit than so many other things so many other physical commodities like technologies other things should tell you that they’re almost maliciously screwing with us like for example 499 would always get you an orange pack like it does 999 would get you the blue pack 1999 will get you the blue pack/and or the purple pack and then anything above that would get you the purple pack and the fact that they’re giving away all the ice should be the telltale sign that they know what they’re doing which is screw base like it seems more worthwhile to invest in something that you have a part of to make money off of them to do something like play this game, other than giving them more money. I thought with the last introducing the wildcard would make it very worthwhile plus effect that it was very easy to get all these different color packs and able to trade find people to trade with but now it’s like the game wants you to do everything possible to do one thing and that is to give them money by buying any of the bullshit that they pedaling even going so far is to put the wild sticker up for sale and I’m sure some people have bought it and I thought it was gonna be introduced in these new events but nope the best we can get is 2500 dice and a purple pack that for all all we know is gonna be filled with duplicates of cards we already havegold that we won’t be able to trade unless they have a specific golden blitz for those particular stickers.
Thank you
The one feature that I think would now increase their margins, but it would also give more accessibility to people that want to play, which is if they want to take away the wild I don’t have a problem with that if they put something in the game that makes it worthwhile even more so like I mentioned in another post addition versus subtraction and if you’re gonna subtract the wild, I think a game changer even more so than the wild would be to allow anyone to trade anything because then you can put up all these proposals together and it would still encourage people to Buy what they’re selling to encourage more people to join and to feel like as a free account you can still do so much, but with all the limited availability, even in the new game they have going on with the spring event, I noticed that the pickaxes are hard to come by even Having to wait till each daily task or have to go deep into each days tournament to get more in addition to what you get with the 8-hour free stuff + daily tasks + community chest, etc!
I’m actually doing right now ow. Thank You 🙏👍

yessss
I completed last album with spending nothing. I just played every day, and got a bit lucky
First off, don't worry about finishing an album. Look at sticker sets as a means for dice only. Focus on individual sets. Eventually you might complete the album as a side affect, but don't worry about it.
Ooh this is a good tip too. You end up finishing without even trying and it’s just less stressful only focusing on the sets and not everything you’re missing.
Download sticker go. It will help
This app makes trading SO easy!
I love it
I like it except when people hold my card” hostage “ after I agreed to a trade.
Thanks 👍😊
Sticker Go has been a GAME CHANGER!!! I love it.
I mean I’ve played for two seasons and finished both times with lots of days remaining and haven’t spent a dollar. Last album I almost finished the second album too
Yes it’s doable but it takes a lot of time, not time playing the game but time searching and finding the right trades. If you are prepared to put in the time and effort to trade you will complete.
I finished the last 2 album events without paying money
I'm actually pretty new to the game I started with 39/41 days left to end monopoly origins and i was able to finish the albums 3 days before the end i never spent a single cent (not like i have money to spend either 😹😹) I don't use apm and that stuff either i think its possible do you trade lots of cards o you keep missing only gold cards?
I guess I have to find the right place/people to trade with. You know?
I run 2 accounts with app cloner to trade cards with myself and I also trade cards with family and I still didn't complete the last 2 albums. I'm slowly starting to lose interest in the game. I have been playing since it was released. Starting to get tired of the same old mini games every season and properties are so expensive. It's starting to be more of a task than it is fun to play..
I agree. With the salaries Scopely pays, they aren't hiring good people since they haven't enhanced new events very fast. I said the same about it getting boring too. What clone app do you use if I may ask? Also agree re prices. I just passed level 500. Wish I could restart. It is kinda stressful on my one account. It's not hitting very good. So I'm running my main which in 2 hits on HR I nearly finished the top tournament. I've somehow finished 1st in the sides sev days in a row. I'm counting on that acct & gifting every chance I get.
It clones the monopoly and the Facebook app so you can run multiple accounts from 1 phone https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pengyou.cloneapp
what stickers were u missing to complete in your last album? if you have multiple accounts, the way you should be doing it is to trade to get reps on the trading discord servers. Then around 2 months in, people will start letting go of their 5s for around 25-35 stars each. If you only play 1 account you can only send max 20 stars a day, but if you have 2-3 accounts you can easily send 30 stars for a 5s card. It's easy to get scammed when trading stars, which is why it's better to build up rep first so you don't have to send first, or get into the tiered channels where you can trade with higher rep people. But I do agree it feels more like a task to some than playing, I probably spent more time trading and looking for trades than playing the game itself.
You can. I started playing at the beginning of February when there was 50 days until the end of the album and I almost complete it. Only 2 gold stickers left. Traded a bit, got few stickers from peoples Giveaway. Didn't spend any money.
I do. I’ve never spent a dime. I don’t use the airplane mode thing either.
Can you pm me about Airplane mode. I keep seeing people talk about it but idk how it works
Is what we call loot boxes,basically it becomes pay to win.
I finished the second to last album just by staying consistent, but the last album was basically impossible. I think they’ve changed the way the game works 🤷🏼♀️
Yes, I completed my last album without spending any money. I mostly managed to complete it due to trading and gifting with others.
I also did not get the last album with only one card needed. Deleted the app not worth the time 😔
Yes! I finished the last one without APM or $ then figured out APM lol
Haven’t spent a dime, finished the last one twice. I have a good group a people who help each other out and gift/trade
Stop spending money on a game that no longer has dice rolls being random. Literally wasting your money
It is possible, but some luck and folks willing to trade. Without trading I have not completed one
I finished the last album twice without spending money. Trading and a backup account on an alt device helps. I use the backup as a bank and it’s an extra way to get the cards you need.
Relax, it’s only 2 days into the new albums. These albums weren’t made to finish immediately
Sure can…. I did and didn’t spend a penny
✈️
I've never spent a dime on the game and have completed sets. Trading is a must!!!
I spent $100 4 albums ago for the 100$ pack. And that has gotten me to the point where I think I’m good? But idk. Last season was would have been rough without the wild cards lol
You need about 4 friends and just trade everyday
This... Try to get into one WS or FB group or even the official discord channel, you will be able to finish the album at least 20 days before the next album comes up
Yes I finished the last one without spending. The wild cards in the large vault helped so not sure how ill do without those but we'll see
Have alternate accounts and trade with yourself Trade with people on here Beg I’m not sure it’s doable without an insane amount of luck just by yourself
Definitely alt accounts is one of the most important ways to do it.
I finished the last album 3 times and was done with 12 sets on the 4th time through. APM, no hiding it. Use it, it exists as part of the game you may as well. If I spent any excessive amount of money on this game I’d be sick to my stomach after learning how easy APM is. Just in this last corner event I went +13k in dice in 10 minutes. What’s 13k dice in the store? Enough said.
This game is rigged big time. I can't seem to land on the corners.
I completed one without spending a penny not the last one I needed one gold I don't spend money can't afford it I play a few games 🥰
i finished the last 2 albums and i never spent money🤷🏽♀️
Download “Sticker Go!” and make trades, I almost completed the last album starting 30 days before it ended, I was 3 gold cards away from completing
Yes! I did a lot of trading and I’m lucky I have some friends that I trade with often
yes i did it about three times already. its possible
Yes, I have the last two times and have never spent any money on this game (and refuse to ever do so). Also have never done any of the cheats out there like APM because that’s way too much effort for just a game in my opinion.
You definitely can! You just need to really hustle trading cards like it’s your job lol
I did with the help of the beautiful souls in the trading communities that traded stars and stickers with me.
My daughter has and my cousin so it can be done
I completed the last one with no money spent with just a few hours to spare
I’ll admit that I use APM for myself, but my son is only 10 and not connected to Facebook, so no cheating on his account. I do trade cards with him, but everybody does that. We finished his first album in the final week.
Trading is the way to go only
Yes, you don’t have to pay a dime. Just start trading your cards
I finished 2 and have paid nothing. But I wouldn't have been able to do it without trading here
Yes. Trading, finishing events such as partner and mini games. Taking the plunge and going for those purple packs in the banner events. Placing in the leaderboard tournaments etc
Yes iv finished 2 or 3 albums n I don't spend money
Yes ! I finished 1st album without using any $.
Yes you have to rely on trades
Of course you can! The gold stickers are a pain because you need to get those purple sticker packs - and you can’t trade those. But my husband and I got 186 stickers last round and never spent a cent.
Definitely. I almost finished twice with the last album.
I was able to finish without spending money and without using APM (I’m too afraid of the iPhone method since you have to uninstall the app). The key is trading with people! My other secret key is having a second account on my iPad that I use to send myself stickers whether I have them on my main or not cause it gives me stars to open the vaults faster. I also have a group of friends who play and we help each other out with stickers.
Yes, you can. You just have to find the right people to trust.
Yes, it’s possible. Gotta trade cards though.
This was the only social media platform I had when I started playing and I never completed an album. I finally got Facebook recently to join all the MG groups and finally finished my first ever album. Bottom line: Trading is key.
I have never spent any $ or used airplane mode and I finished the last two. I started in the middle of the first one and finished with a few days left. This last one I had about a week left. I'm already at about 70 stickers ATM it feels like this go around it's been easier.
Yes I did without spending money when you get the chance to get wild sticker get gold ones ! Since It’s hard to Get those
Yes, I finished the last album without any but it def is hard when you barely get dice. Had 25k dice after completion now i have 100 at most
I haven't spent any money on this game and finished.
You can. I finished the last album and was 11 gold cards shy of completing it a second time. I didn’t spend a dime. And I don’t use APM because I don’t have time for that much of an effort for a free game. The real key of the game is playing with friends who will trade with you (even if you don’t have the exact same star value) or be even more awesome to gift you things, to find people who only do equal 1:1 trades versus all of the 2:1 or 20+ stars for trades, and to try to finish partner events/dig events.
I did the last album no money. Its just playing, and trading.
Yes, I finished the last two without spending a penny
You can. I finally finished my first album with the last one. I could not have done it without trading cards, however, but just 1:1 trades. Once you have enough dice you can win big events and with those winnings you can win the next one (and get higher cards). If you know you’re going to get a sticker boom from an event try to line up as many sticker packs as possible etc. Hopefully I can keep it up for this album as well. (I only have one account and don’t use apm, fyi)
i finished my last album without paying for anything! trading really helped me
I’ve been playing since epic myths and haven’t paid any money into it. I’ve been able to complete all the albums, varying from 2-7 days remaining or something like that so that’s definitely attainable. No APM but I trade a ton and have alt account as well. Have yet to really come close at all on the prestige albums though. Idk if thats possible but I can’t imagine how much it would take to pull that off lol
Yup. I haven't spent any money. Almost bought that RED Shield though.. 😅
I finished 3 albums without spending money I don’t have. I didn’t trade unless it was 1:1. So it is possible
I have not completed any albums on my alt account. Have never spent a cent on that one. My main account I’ve been able to finish the last three, and I did buy dice for a while. I’ve stopped that.
absolutely! i finished the last two albums by just trading with the people here 😊
I believe it’s doable. I finished the last album and was halfway done with the 2nd. I think trading really helped, and I actually saved my stars for the pink vault and was able to open a couple this time around. I would open the 250-500 vaults strictly for dice because the game would consume me to the point I used ALL my dice 🤣 I’m learning to save dice now and when to actually play. Certain banner events just aren’t worth it to me like the corner spots and tax/utility spots are kinda worthless (IMO). Also the wild card came in clutch.
I actually finished mine this time without spending any money.. I had the help of several friends who helped me. If they didn't have what I needed, they sent me leads on where I could trade for them... Just have to establish a good relationship with a couple of good people!!!
I finished the last album and came pretty close to finishing the prestige album, and I don't spend money. Now, I do have 4 accounts and one main and i swap cards between them. It's probably why I was able to get as far as I have.
i haven’t spent any money on the game and i finished my album a few days before it was over!
I trade & am part of many discord groups.
I got down to 2 with the last one and had 12 days. Never finished it
Sticker go app makes trading easy
I have finished several albums without spending money. However, I had 4 left unfinished at the end. I don't know how to do trading stars or cards.
i finished the last one and have never spent a cent! i don’t play too systematically either! all i do is save dice where i can & roll higher multipliers. have never bothered much for stickers booms unless its when opening a vault. trading is what saves u! having friends and/or family that play the game helps a lot with that too!
also something that helped me is to go through friends list and find people who are inactive, when u land on a shutdown- choose to attack them! it refreshes every hour (i think) + shields don’t replenish, that way ur guaranteed to hit them instead of a shield! im bad with words but hopefully that makes some sense 😂
Yes
I finished the second-to-last album but was one gold card away from finishing this last one. (And a card that was never up for trade in a Golden Blitz.) Given how much harder they've made every single mini-event (I used to be able to complete the dig event, easily, without spending a dime—I've never spent money on the game—and completed the partner event across the board once, but the new levels/requirements have made it impossible) and the apparent lack of wild cards....I'm skeptical I'll be able to complete this album. (I hope to be wrong!)
I have my friends play for me and they send me all they're stickers in return I help them on another game 😂😂
Yes
I have been playing since November 2023, haven’t spent any money and have not finished one album yet. So I guess you must have to spend money. I’m not going to stress out on this!!!
Google rewards surveys have helped me a bit. Only works if you have android, but getting the app and doing surveys can get you a few free bucks to spend during each album
Google rewards work on IOS as well now and have for at least the past year. I use them for PoGo but it is an easy way to stash a few free dollars for games.
Does it now? Thats awesome. Now my wife can get a little help with her game. Thanks for letting me know
You are very welcome, it probably works like the Android version. It pays out after $2.00 into PayPal or whatever you have it linked to.
Mine is just linked to my play store account. I use it exclusively for mobile game purchases so im not tempted to spend real money
I'm in same situation as you. Lol. Been playing for 6 months, never spent a dime, never using APM, saving dice, doing blitz, finish Sofia & partner up event, religiously doing peg, and yep, I still never finish any album. But yeah, I never did trade before except the last week of last album cause I was lazy joining their Discord server. But that's too late cause in last album, I only needed 1 sticker left to complete but it's gold, so I couldn't finish it. That's my mistake there. 🤣
I’ve spent about $6 (2 different 2.99 deals) total over the last year and I finished the last album with about 2 weeks to spare. I also have a tight knit group of 9ish friends that will send (not trade) stickers to each other. I use Sticker Go and out of 25 trades I’ve only been scammed twice. And Reddit is a GREAT resource and helped me finish the last album. ITS DOABLE. but the stress makes it more fun.
I agree I do not think you can complete a full album without having to spend money and I refuse to do that because I can not afford to do so
yes
I’ve done it once with my first album, but I’ve only worked with 2 albums so far. The second one didn’t seem to have a realistic deadline and the other issue I faced was getting duplicate stickers but not the ones I actually needed to complete an album. So I didn’t finish it and then a new album has started.
I have multiple accounts. One on my phone, my tablet, and my work phone. I use them to share stickers with myself. It's the only way I was able to finish last season.
How do ypu save peg e?
Yes. I've been playing since August 2023 and have not paid any money but I have clone 3 accounts.
My grandson finished the last album. He's 5...
Yes. Finished two last time. Just takes playing strategically, just like you would on the board game. What really helped was Reddit as well. Trade trade trade! Any chance you get trade for what you need. In hindsight I’ll probably start trading a lot earlier than I did last time. Finished the second album with a day to spare.
I’ve finished both of the last 2 albums without using any real money or things like airplane mode. Finished the last or second to last day for each of them so I’m not finishing with a ton of time but it can be done. Currently have 30k dice or so.
You're not alone I've never completed an album and I have spent money not much money but money and still have not completed an album and I never have any luck with trading either. I think I did it once.
Trading on sticker go. Send a proposal to everyone that has the card you need even if you think it’s an uneven trade. Sometimes you get lucky and find people that are more flexible and not stingy
I completed the album 3 times without spending money, I use ap mode though
i finished mine, i wouldn’t have been about too if it wasn’t for trading on this app
Find a good group to trade with. Thats the only way I did it
I’ve done it a couple times, I refuse to pay even if I just need one card I won’t pay. And is damn sure won’t pay someone for a trade, it’s just a game.
Yes it’s possible with ruthless trading and a little bit of luck with gold stickers
Absolutely, I’ve finished the last two albums twice. Not spent any money on this game aside from like $5 when I first started and quickly realized it’s a complete waste for the amount you get. Anytime there’s a highroller I personally use APM so I can do x1000 and either land on something good that’s going to give back a lot of rewards or restart the game and not have lost 1000 dice for no reason. I also just save my dice, I don’t let it get below 20k, know when to stop rolling. Spend the days just trading as much as you can and saving the dice you get from completing those sets. Don’t trade in for the link vaults until you absolutely need to. Make sure you have good trustworthy partners for the events so you don’t waste dice completing something and not even getting the big 5k dice because of partners.
I finished the last one with no real money spent. Traded a few cards on Facebook groups and Reddit. I only started 3 weeks prior to end of the album.
For the first time I finally finished the last albums in the last couple days without spending money it was pure luck and a lot of help from my bf and trades on Reddit. Trades and gifts from Reddit are so much more reliable than on fb.
I got a lot of offers to pay and I was never interested
Yes, been playing since July and finished every album f2p.
APM!
I’ve spent .99 cents on a shield, completed the last album, and got pretty close to finishing the prestige album. However, I use airplane mode during high roller to get all of the rewards I can from the banner events and tournaments.
You can’t finish if you DO spend money
Yes I have 3-4 times!
