Monopoly GO's Wild Sticker: A Game Changer for Sticker Collectors
Monopoly GO, the mobile adaptation of the classic board game, has introduced a game-changing element: the Wild Sticker. This unique item allows players to bypass the randomness of traditional Sticker Packs, providing a guaranteed way to obtain specific missing Stickers. This guide explains its function and value.
Understanding the Wild Sticker
A Wild Sticker acts as a wildcard, enabling players to select any missing Sticker from their current album's set. This includes both tradeable and the highly coveted, typically difficult-to-obtain, non-tradeable Gold Stickers. This significantly alters the strategy of Sticker collection, moving away from reliance on chance.
Utilizing the Wild Sticker
Upon acquiring a Wild Sticker, players are presented with a list of all their missing Stickers. They simply choose the desired Sticker to add to their collection. This choice extends to all rarity levels, including four-star, five-star, and even the rare Gold Stickers. Completing a Set or the entire Album with a Wild Sticker yields rewards equivalent to those earned from standard Sticker Packs. However, remember: the selection is final and cannot be reversed. The Wild Sticker must be used immediately; it cannot be saved for later use.
Is Purchasing Wild Stickers a Smart Move?
Scopely, the developer, frequently offers discounted Wild Stickers, particularly towards the end of an album's completion. This can be a strategic purchase, especially when only one or two Stickers stand between you and the album's grand prize. The time saved by instantly completing the album can outweigh the cost, especially for competitive players. However, consider if other methods of obtaining Stickers have been exhausted before resorting to a purchase.
