Alright, so I’m supposed to dive into this whole Monopoly Go thing. Let’s see. Picture this: you’re back in the 90s, sitting in front of the tube with weird static fuzz and sitcom laugh tracks. That’s exactly what Monopoly Go’s new ad campaign, The Dice Life, is all about. And guess who they roped in for this nostalgia trip? Yep, it’s Will Ferrell. He’s doing the voice of Mr. Monopoly, like how did that even happen? Ferrell doing Monopoly. What a world.
Anyway, so there’s this creative agency, Omelet—no clue who names these places—partnered with Scopely, the brains behind Monopoly Go. Imagine an advertisement that’s basically a love letter to cheesy 90s TV, complete with a ridiculously catchy theme song. It’s like when you’ve got that one song stuck in your head and it won’t leave.
Oh, and get this, Jake Johnson—you know, the guy from New Girl—and Sunita Mani from Glow also pop up. It’s a short bit, but wow, does it nail the family drama. You know, those epic board game fights over who gets the last piece. Classic.
Moving on, because that’s what we do—Monopoly Go isn’t just sitting around on its laurels. Oh no, it snagged some Marvel tie-ins. Of course. It’s gonna sync up with The Fantastic Four: First Steps. Starts July 13. Mark your calendars or not, up to you. They’re mixing comic book heroes with board games. Why? Because they can.
Now, let’s talk about mini-games and events. They’ve got an entire smorgasbord of those coming. Collectibles too, because everyone loves digital stuff that doesn’t clutter up your house. There’s a new Partners Event, which is a thing apparently. Feels like there’s always some event going on.
The summer’s action-packed, but what about the next big Monopoly Go Treasures Event, huh? Last one wrapped up in June and now…silence. Waiting is the hardest part—or so they say.
If you’re still with me here and looking for those free Monopoly Go Dice Links for July, keep your eyes peeled! It’s a tiny bit of treasure hunting for you. Or not. Whatever floats your boat.
