Claim Codes Before Building

Redeem every active code from the in-game Twitter button as your very first action. Even the 5 Gold codes compound across runs; over a week they pay for your first Rare Chest. Codes expire silently and there is no in-game reminder, so a daily claim habit is the single highest-EV habit a new player can build.

Join the Chillz Studios Group

Joining the official Chillz Studios Roblox group awards the Member rank, which applies a permanent 1.25x (25%) multiplier to all Gold from stages and the final chest. The boost stacks multiplicatively with the Gold Multiplier Gamepass, so a Member with the 2x Gamepass earns 2.25x baseline yield per run.

Build a Cheap Wood First Boat

For your first run, spend only Wood Blocks. Wood is the third-lightest block in the physics engine, weighing 2.8 kg per unit, and a flat raft of 30-40 Wood Blocks will float reliably on the Stage Entrance river section. Add a single Car Seat so your avatar respawns in the boat on death rather than the spawn pad.

Pass the Black Walls

Gold is awarded only when the avatar crosses invisible Stage Dividers (Black Walls). The server requires at least two seconds inside each stage boundary for the checkpoint to register. Speedrunning straight through without slowing down will void most of your payout — this is the game's 2-second rule.

Touch the Treasure Chest

The final Treasure is locked at exactly 9,717 studs from the white team spawn, submerged 340 studs below the standard water line. Touching the chest awards a baseline 25 Gold plus your accumulated stage yield. With the Member rank and Gold Gamepass, a full run pays 105 × 2.25 = ~237 Gold.

Roll Your First Chests

Spend earned Gold on Rare Chests (45 Gold each). Each Rare Chest yields 12 material blocks, 2 decoration blocks, and 1 ability block. Concrete and Marble lead the material pool at 30% each, so your first dozen chests will quickly stock you with mid-tier hull material.
