Monopoly Go: How to get free Mermaid Treasures pickaxes

You won't need to dive into the ocean for these pickaxes.

The hardest part of completing a Treasures event in Monopoly GO is getting enough pickaxes to clear every grid. Finishing Mermaid Treasures rewards you with a Wild Sticker and dice, so it’s worth collecting as many pickaxes as possible for it, especially if you’re close to completing a sticker set.

How to get more Mermaid Treasures pickaxes in Monopoly GO

Participating in banner events and tournaments is The best way to get more Mermaid Treasures event pickaxes. Each of these rewards hundreds of pickaxes, dice, and other items to make progression easier. You can also claim daily Quick Wins and free shop gifts for a few extras if you’re out of dice or need more pickaxes to complete your current level.

Events and tournaments

If your goal is to finish Mermaid Treasures, collecting pickaxes from banner events and tournaments is the way to go. Every event gives around 200-300 pickaxes if you complete every milestone tier, allowing you to advance through several treasure grids with zero issues. Atlantean Adventure is the first example, with several more followings during Mermaid Treasures.

However, the challenge comes from obtaining every reward. Fortunately, even the first few milestones give you some pickaxes, giving you a chance to complete one or two levels. That way, you can use your Treasures rewards to advance further in other events and snowball your progress.

Daily Quick Wins

Another method of obtaining pickaxes is completing your three daily Quick Win tasks. These usually range from passing go to collecting stickers. They change daily, and each one gives around two pickaxes.

While this isn’t nearly as much as events and tournaments, it’s a quick and easy way to get extras for those last few treasures. Completing all three Quick Wins during Mermaid Treasures gives you dozens of pickaxes overall, which is often enough to get you through one or two levels.

Free store gifts

The last method to getting pickaxes is redeeming free shop gifts. You’ll receive a gift every eight hours, each rewarding around two to three pickaxes. These alone won’t complete the event for you, but they can make a difference between finishing a level and being one pickaxe short.

There are currently no pickaxe links available for the Mermaid Treasures dig event. While Scopely occasionally releases pickaxe links, such as during the last Dino Treasures event, there’s no guarantee we’ll see any this time. Nonetheless, we’ll update this section with more details if any pickaxe links appear.
