Scopely continues to expand Monopoly GO with exciting new content, including Star Wars-themed collectibles, minigames, and limited-time flash events. The latest addition, Jawa Chase, is a fast-paced flash event that plays more like an interactive minigame. In it, players must chase and catch a moving Jawa character directly on their game board. If you're unsure how the Jawa Chase works or how to successfully catch the Jawa, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know.
During the Jawa Chase flash event in Monopoly GO, a Jawa appears on a random tile on your game board. Each time you roll the dice, both your token and the Jawa move — though the Jawa always stays a set number of spaces ahead of you.
Your objective is to land exactly on the tile where the Jawa is currently located. The event is fast-paced and limited by both a countdown timer and a fixed number of turns (20 full board laps). The chase ends when you successfully catch the Jawa, use up all your turns, or the timer runs out — whichever comes first.
Each time you catch the Jawa you'll win vaulable rewards. These rewards include:
- Free Dice Rolls
- Cash
In addition, the rewards are based on the dice multiplier that you use during the event, so the more dice you use, in principal, the more dice you'll win back if you catch it. But remember, if the Jawa gets away, you'll win nothing!
The Jawa Chase minigame in Monopoly GO is largely luck-based, but there are smart strategies to boost your chances and maximize rewards. While you can’t control the dice rolls, using higher multipliers—like x50 or x100—can significantly increase your payout when you catch the Jawa. For example, landing on the Jawa's space with a x100 multiplier gives you 100 times the base reward.
Additionally, the longer the Jawa stays uncaught, the more valuable the reward becomes. So if you're not in a good position to catch it right away and the initial rewards seem small, consider letting it stay on the board for a few more turns to raise the stakes.
Keep in mind that this event can drain your dice quickly. It’s wise to stockpile dice in advance by completing solo events, tournaments, daily Quick Wins, and collecting your free shop gifts before the chase begins.
Q: How do I catch the Jawa?
A: Roll the dice! Both you and the Jawa move each turn. Land directly on him before your turns run out.
Q: What rewards can I get?
A: Dice and/or Cash. The Jawa collects more with each turn he escapes!
Q: Do multipliers affect rewards?
A: Yes! Higher multipliers mean bigger rewards in the Jawa’s sack.
Q: How does the event end?
A: The event ends when you catch the Jawa, run out of turns, or the timer expires — whichever happens first.
