Monopoly GO Types of Squares
Property Squares
Property squares in Monopoly GO are the most common type of tiles that are found on the monopoly board. They reward players with money when they land on them, and allow construction of houses.
Once the player has created 5 houses on a single property square, they will be able to build a hotel. Property squares also allow players to charge rent to other players in certain conditions.

Railroad Squares
When a player lands on a railroad square in Monopoly GO, they are prompted to play one of the mini-games, Bank Heist or Shutdown.
The former allows the player to steal money from their opponents, while the latter lets them knock down one of the other player’s buildings. There are four railroad squares in total.

Community Chest Squares
Community chest squares are map tiles that allow the players to open the community chest once they land on one of them. These squares are likely to award the player with money and allow you to play a mini-game if you have enough friends invited.

Utilities Squares
Utilities squares are usually safe spaces in Monopoly GO. When a player lands on one of the utilities squares, they will receive a free money bonus. There are only two utilities squares on the monopoly board, the Electric Company and the Water Works.
