How to play: beginner guide
Day 1 2x Money, Room 1 (85% / 15% / 0.1%), Copper at $3K / x150, money-fast tips, Train pads, F/Q controls, Sell All traps.
First loop
Rocks only pay after you cut them: mine → Home (Q) → Place Rock → collect Ready! → Sell materials at the hub. Day 1 2x Money, Copper, and anvil Power open the rest of the early ladder.
Step by step
- 1. Claim Day 1
Open Daily Rewards on the left bar and take Day 1 before your first sale: 1 Hour of 2x Money. That hour covers your first Common cuts and the Copper buy. Later days unlock Limited Rocks, 2x Power, Free Next Pickaxe, +3 Pocket, +3 Eyesight, and Day 7 five Limited Rocks (pick from Nova Prism, Genesis Monolith, Royal Relic, Sun Scarab). Miss a day and you can buy Missed Daily Reward for 29 Robux.

Take the teleporter from the hub into Room 1. The floor board prints Common 85%, Uncommon 15%, and Nova Prism 0.1%. You start with a Stone Pickaxe (x20) and two Pocket slots in the mine. Fill both slots with Commons first so the cutter has work as soon as you Home. Rock rarity rolls and material rolls are separate: the board is only the rock drop odds for this room.

Press Home (Q) to your plot. You start with one Cutting Machine at Level 1. Use Place Rock, then CUT. Commons finish in about 5 seconds; Uncommons sit closer to 30 seconds until you upgrade the machine. When a machine shows Ready! (E), collect the materials. Sell finished materials at the hub Sell stall next to Upgrade (C also opens sell). Raw rocks do not pay like cut materials. Early Common materials such as Seashell, Copper, Rust Gear, and Old Button fund your first pickaxe buy.

Save $3K and buy the Copper Pickaxe at the Pickaxes stall (x150, or 70 Robux). After Copper, farm Uncommons for bigger sales, then buy Iron ($12K / x1.1K) when you can. Each next stall pickaxe is the main Power and Money jump. Eyesight for $1K at Upgrade is a cheap side buy that rules out one wrong material option before you cut; buy it when you start hunting Index cores, not before Commons pay the bills.

Walk to the Train area. Stand on a free anvil and press PLAY. Better pickaxes and higher anvil multipliers (2x through 200x) raise the rate. Power grows offline too. Free Gift 2x AFK Speed doubles training after like, favorite, and Duality Works. Sit on an anvil while cutters run. Higher pads unlock from rooms and Index; 25x through 200x also sell as Robux passes that skip Index gates.

Upgrade stall covers Pocket, Eyesight, and machine levels. Machine Level 2 ($2.5K) drops Uncommon waits from about 30s to about 6s. Pocket starts at two mine slots; buy $10K when trips end before machines fill. Cap is six cutters. Keep buying the next stall pickaxe. Finish Index rows for Money auras, then push deeper for Rare+. Full tables sit on Upgrades.

How to make money fast
After Copper is online, money speed comes from shorter cut waits, better rock picks in deeper rooms, and Index Money auras, not from stacking more machines first.
- Keep buying the next stall pickaxe (Iron → Golden → …) before you bank large piles of cash.
- Upgrade the cutter to Level 2 ($2.5K) so Uncommons finish in seconds instead of ~30s.
- Train on anvils during every idle cut window; claim Free Gift 2x AFK Speed when you can.
- In deeper rooms, drop low-rarity rocks and grab the next-best rarity your Pocket can hold.
- Complete Index rows for permanent Money multipliers, then spend Eyesight when you hunt specific cores.
Controls
- F: Spawn: jump back to the hub
- Q: Home: return to your plot / cutter
- C: Sell: open sell / jump toward the Sell stall
- E: Place Rock, collect Ready!, Sell, Upgrade prompts
Watch outs
- Stay on your own plot. Other bases block placement with a warning and waste the trip.
- Sell All can dump uncut limited stones from your inventory. Lock or cut them first if you want the cut result.
- Rarer rocks pay more but sit longer in the machine. Mix Commons so the queue keeps paying while Uncommons finish.
- Do not park on Stone after Copper is affordable. The next pickaxe is the biggest early Power and Money jump.
FAQ
Copper-first or cutter-first?
New saves: claim Day 1, sell Commons, buy Copper ($3K / x150), then Uncommons. After Copper, machine Level 2 ($2.5K) is a strong next buy before you dump into deeper rooms. If you already own Copper, cutter upgrades and Pocket come before another Robux spend.
How do I make money fast in Cut a Rock?
Follow Day 1 → Copper on this page, then prioritize the next pickaxe, cutter Level 2, idle anvil training, next-best rarity in deeper rooms, and Index Money auras.
Where do I train Power?
Stand on an anvil in the Train area and press PLAY. Better pickaxes and higher anvil multipliers (2x through 200x) raise the rate. Power also grows offline. Free Gift 2x AFK Speed doubles anvil training.
What is Eyesight for early game?
Each level rules out one wrong material option before you cut. The first level costs $1K. It matters more when you hunt specific Index cores than on pure Commons.
What does Pocket upgrade?
Pocket is how many rocks you can carry in the mine. You start with two slots. Extra slots move into your backpack when you leave the mine. Buy Pocket when trips end before your machines fill.
Can I sell uncut rocks?
Cut materials are the real Money path. Some limited stones that need a high machine level can still sell uncut, but Sell All can wipe them from inventory before you cut. Lock or cut limiteds you care about first.
Does progress continue offline?
Yes. Anvil Power keeps climbing, and cutting machines keep working while you are away, including jobs that can run up to 24 hours.
How do I unlock deeper rooms?
Train Power on anvils, then break the floor doors. Stronger pickaxes and higher anvil multipliers raise Power faster. Instant Floor Break packs exist in the shop if you want to skip a door with Robux.
