Deep links: zones, upgrades.

Two phases list

Phase one is Safe Zone setup at the treadmill, Trails Shop, Pickaxe Shop, Free Rewards, and merge machine: train Speed, equip a trail, claim rewards, buy pickaxe Power, merge duplicates, and upgrade the pen. Phase two is zone delivery in Forest and later Speed-gated zones: break, inspect, steal keepers, beat the carry timer, place in pen, and fill Index.

Your first delivery loop

Free rewards, treadmill, Forest hatch inspect, timed steal, placement, White trail, Stone pickaxe, Auto Swing.

  1. Claim free rewards first. Like and Favorite the experience, join ILGames x Eggs, Claim Free Rewards Speed, and Verify the Sabertooth Egg in Shop Community Rewards when those offers appear.
  2. Train Speed on your treadmill. Stand on the treadmill in front of your base. Level 1 gives +1 Speed per step; upgrades raise that rate. Reach at least 5 Speed before Forest steals.
  3. Break a Forest egg and inspect the hatch. Equip the Wooden pickaxe, left-click a Rock Egg or Forest Egg, and wait until the animal appears. Luck can climb while you break. Read size and income before you steal.
  4. Steal only keepers, then race home. Press E to take the animal. Guards aggro on steal, and a ~30 second despawn timer starts. Sprint to your pen before the timer or a player bat ends the run.
  5. Place, claim Index, upgrade pen if full. Finish placement for cash. Claim Index Speed rewards for new entries. Use Equip Best and upgrade pen capacity when the base is full.
  6. Buy White trail, then fix the bottleneck. Spend early cash on the White trail ($500) and equip it, then keep training. Buy Stone pickaxe ($80) if hatches are slow. Turn on Auto Swing when you farm dense egg fields.

Controls list

Move with W A S D or the left stick, jump with Space or A, break eggs with an equipped pickaxe and left-click (Auto Swing optional), take animals with E after hatch, recover dropped animals before the timer ends, and open Shop from the left HUD.

Session checks

Inspect before steal, watch the carry timer, equip trails while training, and match Speed to the zone gate.

  1. Inspect before you steal. Finish the hatch so you see the animal. Skip low-income hatches instead of risking a failed escape.
  2. Watch the carry timer. After steal, note the ~30 second despawn countdown. A slow return or a bat hit loses the animal even when your Speed clears the gate.
  3. Confirm trail is equipped while training. Buying a trail does nothing until Trails Shop shows it equipped. Step back on the treadmill so the multiplier applies.
  4. Stay above the zone Speed gate. You can walk into higher zones, but stealing below the gate lets the guard catch you. Match Speed to the zone before you take an animal.

Early goals list

Hit these five checkpoints in order: reach at least 5 Speed for Forest, break and inspect a Forest hatch, steal a keeper past the carry timer into your pen, buy and equip White trail for $500, then buy Stone pickaxe for $80 when Forest eggs take too long to break.

Mistakes to skip

Blind steals, ignored timers, fake codes, under-gated steals, unequipped trails, crowded bat paths, and Steal an Egg mix-ups.

  • Stealing every hatch without reading size or income first.
  • Ignoring the carry despawn timer after a steal.
  • Searching for promo codes when the Shop has no code box.
  • Stealing in a zone while Speed is below that zone's gate.
  • Buying a trail and forgetting to equip it on the treadmill.
  • Carrying through crowded paths where bats can steal your animal.
  • Skipping Index animals in Forest and Desert for free Speed rewards.
  • Joining Steal an Egg by mistake and pasting rewards into the wrong place.

FAQ

What is the goal of the first session?

Place one inspected hatch in your pen and earn cash. That proves break, steal, timer, and placement before you farm higher zones.

Should I steal as soon as the animal appears?

Only if the hatch looks worth the risk. Guards stay idle until you steal, so you can skip weak animals.

Should I train Speed or break eggs first?

Train to the Forest gate first. Below 5 Speed, Forest steals fail even if you can break the egg.

What should I buy with my first cash?

White trail ($500) and equip it for faster treadmill gains, then Stone pickaxe ($80) if hatch time is slow. Upgrade pen when capacity fills.

Can other players take my animal?

Yes while you are carrying it. Bats and bumps can drop the animal so another player can grab it. Placed pen animals stay yours.

Is there Rebirth?

No. Progress comes from Speed, trails, pickaxe Power, pen upgrades, Index rewards, and better animals.
