Monopoly Go combines luck and strategy in a fast-paced mobile board game, and the 6-7-8 method is a clever trick to tilt the odds in your favour. From 5 March 2025, this dice rolling strategy uses probability to maximise your rewards without wasting precious rolls. Here's a breakdown of how it works and how to use it effectively, based on GameRant's guide.

What is the 6-7-8 method?

Rolling with probability

The 6-7-8 method is a dice rolling tactic based on the mathematics of two six-sided dice. In Monopoly Go, your moves depend on these rolls, and totals of 6, 7, and 8 are the most likely outcomes - about 44% of all possible outcomes combined. Here's why:7: Most common (16.67% chance) with 6 combinations (e.g. 1+6, 2+5, 3+4).6 and 8: Next most likely (13.89% each) with 5 combos each (e.g. 6: 1+5, 2+4; 8: 2+6, 3+5).This method uses these odds to target key board tiles such as Railways, Chance or Utilities with higher multipliers for bigger rewards.

How to use the 6-7-8 method

Step-by-Step Strategy

Roll normally: Use the standard x1 multiplier as you move around the board - save your dice for the right moment.Count your spaces: When you're 6, 7 or 8 spaces away from a valuable point (e.g. railway for shutdowns, chance for boosts), pause.Increase the multiplier: Tap the multiplier button (above the "GO" button) - go big (e.g. x10, x100) or play it safe (x5) if you're testing the waters.Roll the dice: With the higher multiplier active, roll the dice - your increased odds of landing a 6, 7 or 8 increase your shot at the target.Adjust afterwards: Hit your tile? Go back to x1 to conserve dice. Miss? Be patient - it's not foolproof.

An example

You're 7 spaces away from a railway during a tournament. Set the multiplier to x10, roll a 7, land there and score 10x Shutdown Points - a huge payoff for 10 dice.

Tips for success

Know the risks: It's not a guarantee - 56% of the dice will not roll a 6, 7 or 8. Use it when dice are plentiful (e.g. from free links or events).Aim wisely: Aim for high value tiles - railroads (shutdowns/bank robberies), chance (dice or cash) or event pickups (e.g. Peg-E coins).Event Boost: During high roller events, multipliers can reach x1000 - perfect for 6-7-8 if you're 6-8 spaces from a jackpot tile.Conserve your dice: Don't overuse multipliers on low-value spots - stick to x1 unless 6-7-8 applies.

Why it works

Dice are king

Dice rolls drive everything in Monopoly Go - progression, events and rewards. The 6-7-8 method optimises your limited rolls by matching them to statistical probabilities, turning random luck into a calculated advantage. It's not cheating; it's playing smart.
