If you are a gamer who likes business games, you must have tried Monopoly Go, a new mobile board game based on the classic board game with some innovations. In this game, you can use strategies to increase your funds gradually, but what if you go bankrupt in this game?
Many players will question how it is possible to go bankrupt in a business game. In fact, there are many innovative mini-games in Monopoly Go, which are very dependent on your luck and RNG, so bankruptcy is possible. But don’t worry, if you do go bankrupt, this guide will provide you with some solutions and teach you some ways to prevent bankruptcy, so that you are prepared.

What Happens When You Run Out Of Money?
In this business game, you will experience making and losing money – you will collect some rent from your property or landmark, which will be used to build or upgrade your property. Similarly, you also need to pay some rent to friends on the same board.
You can say that everything you do in Monopoly Go requires cash, so each player rolls the dice to get more cash to survive on the board. In the original classic version of Monopoly, you lose your spot on the board when you run out of cash. In Monopoly Go, when you don’t have property to mortgage, you’re in debt to the bank and other players.
But you don’t have to worry or quit the game sadly, because Monopoly Go is a real-time game. As long as you earn enough money later, you can continue to play on the board.
You can go bankrupt, which means you give up the assets you’ve acquired before – properties, landmarks, and even hotels. These assets will be auctioned off and will go directly to the player who made the highest bid. As the players on the entire board go bankrupt or spend more than they earn, the last player is the winner and can get all the cash on the board and get some Monopoly Go Stickers as a reward.
Under What Circumstances Will You Go Bankrupt?
As I just said, going bankrupt in Monopoly Go will not cause too serious consequences, but there is one inevitable result: your progress in building a business empire or achieving wealth freedom will be interrupted.
Since there are many mechanisms in Monopoly Go that can disrupt other players’ business empires, such as Bank Heist or directly demolishing landmarks, everyone may experience bankruptcy. Here are some common situations where you lose money in the game.
- Spending all your cash on the board
- Other players have Bank Heist or Mega Heist activities against you
- Landing on Community Chest tiles
- Paying the rent of other players’ landmarks
- Paying the bail required when landing on Go To Jail tiles
- Repairing landmarks or properties damaged in demolition activities
These will make you spend your cash, and you need to spend cash relatively according to your actual situation. For example, when your landmarks and properties have been demolished, the first thing you should do is to repair them, otherwise it will require more cash after the second demolition.
How To Avoid Bankruptcy?
In Monopoly Go, the best way to avoid bankruptcy is to always have enough money in your bank account and try not to be offline for too long, because other players are more likely to target your bank for Bank Heists and Shutdowns when you are offline.
But it is important to remind you that you should never save too much cash in the bank, but rather use it more to upgrade landmarks or properties, so that the rent you collect will make up for these expenses. Here are some effective ways to make money in games. You can choose the best one according to your preferences.
Tiles With Cash Rewards Falling On The Board
There are many tiles with cash icons on the board, and you can use some throwing strategies, such as using the dice multiplier when approaching these tiles to maximize the amount of cash this tile provides you. Here is a hint for you that the dice are most likely to appear 6, 7, and 8 at present. But this is for reference only.
Collect Rent
When your destroyed landmarks are rebuilt, you can continue to collect rent. If you don’t have much time in the game and can’t pay attention to the landmarks all the time, you can use some shields to protect them so that they can be protected from violent demolition by other players. Shields are obtained on the board. In addition, you can also get some Monopoly Go Stickers on the board that can be used to collect.
Continuous Login
In Monopoly Go, logging in everyday will give you a Daily Gift, so you can spend a little time every day to log in to the game and open Daily Gifts. Over time, you will get more and more cash from here.
Participate In More Tournaments And Seasonal Events
The biggest difference between this Monopoly Go and the classic Monopoly game is that there are a lot of interesting activities for you to explore, and new activities will be added every once in a while. The current activities that can provide you with cash in the game are Behind The Billions and Making Moves Tournament, so go and participate!
Complete The Collection Of Monopoly Go Cards Albums
When you get enough Monopoly Go Stickers in other activities to complete the sticker album, you will also get some cash and dice rewards. Although these rewards are not much, sometimes they can even solve your urgent needs.
Perform More Bank Heists And Mega Heists On Other Players
Both Bank Heists and Mega Heists activities require your tokens to land accurately on the railroad tiles on the board, so like the cash tiles, you also need to use some strategy to trigger them.
The above is some information and prevention methods about bankruptcy in Monopoly Go. As long as you use the appropriate cash strategy in the game, you have only an infinitesimal chance of reaching bankruptcy. I hope you can have fun in this interesting Monopoly Go, and I wish you to build your own business empire as soon as possible!
