As March winds down, Monopoly GO brings players yet another high-stakes social challenge with the Desert Bloom Partners Event launching on March 27th. If you're aiming to collect rare rewards, climb the ranks, and make the most out of your dice, this limited-time event is one you don’t want to sleep on. Here's everything you need to know—from mechanics to strategy—to get the most out of the Desert Bloom Partners Event.
What Is the Desert Bloom Partners Event?
The Desert Bloom Partners Event is a collaboration-style mini-event in Monopoly GO, where you team up with other players to complete a shared goal. Much like previous "Partners" events, the idea is to place and upgrade partner tokens (represented as flowers in this theme) across four different slots on the board. Once all slots are maxed out, you and your partner claim milestone rewards.
This event structure not only encourages teamwork but also demands resource management, communication, and strategic spending of your in-game dice.
How the Mechanics Work
The event is based on collecting flower tokens, which are obtained by spinning the special event wheel. Here’s how you can play effectively:
-
Partner Selection: You can invite friends or be randomly paired with another active participant. Choosing an active partner is crucial—deadweight can stall your progress.
-
Token Collection: Use the Desert Bloom Wheel to spin for flowers. This wheel uses its own event currency, which you collect through other Monopoly GO activities like tournaments, quick wins, and milestone events.
-
Upgrade System: Each partner slot requires a certain number of flower tokens to upgrade. Levels increase exponentially, so having active teammates is a must if you want to reach the top tiers.
Key Milestone Rewards
While full reward data for the Desert Bloom Partners Event hasn’t been released yet, these events traditionally include:
-
High-value dice rolls (2,000+ at final tiers)
-
Exclusive sticker packs (including Wild Stickers)
-
Rare tokens or partner items
-
Cash bonuses
-
Unique cosmetic or theme-based items
Keep in mind that only fully completed partnerships yield the final prize, so prioritizing efficiency and communication is vital.
Tips for Success
1. Plan Your Partner Picks
Choose friends who are equally active in events. If you're paired randomly, check activity before committing resources to a partnership.
2. Save Event Currency Early
Start hoarding event spins and partner currency as soon as a new patch or event week begins. Spending them during the actual event window increases efficiency and payout.
3. Maximize Your Spins
Use dice boosts and event multiplier bonuses when collecting event currency. These bonuses significantly boost your ability to spin more and collect more flower tokens.
4. Prioritize One Slot at a Time
Focus your spins on one partner slot at a time. This allows for quicker reward claims and makes it easier to switch out partners if necessary.
5. Communicate
If possible, coordinate with your partners—let them know when you’ll be active and how many tokens you plan to contribute. Many players hit roadblocks simply due to miscommunication or mismatched expectations.
The Desert Bloom Partners Event in Monopoly GO continues Scopely’s tradition of combining social play with grind-heavy mechanics. It’s a rewarding system for those willing to coordinate and commit, but it can be a trap for solo players who don’t manage their resources wisely. With proper planning, however, this is one of the best opportunities in the game to stock up on premium rewards and advance your collection.
