1. Game Overview
- Game name: Dig and Hatch a Brainrot (Roblox experience by Starplay Development).
- Core idea:
- You dig for Brainrot Eggs in Dirt zones.
- Carry them back to your base/plot.
- Eggs hatch into Brainrots that generate money over time.
The guide mainly helps with:
- Choosing good shovels
- Getting better (rarer) Brainrots
- Understanding Rebirths
- Preventing other players from stealing your Brainrots
2. Shovels – Stats & “Best” Choices
Shovels are your main tool. In general:
- More expensive = better stats (Strength, Speed, Luck, special Effect).
Shovel Table (from the article)
| Shovel | Strength | Speed | Luck | Special Effect | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wood Shovel | 1 | 0.9 | – | – | $2,500 |
| Crystallized | 6 | 0.4 | 10 | +10% Shiny Enhance (Robux only) | Costs Robux |
| Corrupted | 6 | 0.4 | 10 | +10% Blood Moon Chance | Not for sale |
| Toy Shovel | 1 | 0.7 | 1 | – | $15,000 |
| Spike Shovel | 3 | 0.9 | 2 | – | $100,000 |
| Topaz Shovel | 4 | 0.8 | 3 | +1% Clean Chance | $400,000 |
| Dragon Shovel | 4 | 0.5 | 5 | – | $1,000,000 |
| Fractured Shovel | 5 | 0.4 | 8 | +2% Shocked Chance | $25,000,000 |
| Heavenly Shovel | 5 | 0.5 | 6 | +2% Frozen Chance | $4,000,000 |
| Cosmic Shovel | 8 | 0.5 | 9 | +0.1% Shiny Chance | $100,000,000 |
Best shovels
- Absolute best (if you spend Robux):
- Crystallized Shovel
- High Strength & Luck
- Lower Speed but strong +10% Shiny Enhance bonus.
- Crystallized Shovel
- Best F2P progression path:
- Spike Shovel
- Very good early-game shovel: balanced, good Speed, better for fast grinding.
- Then either:
- Topaz Shovel (if you like extra Clean Chance), or
- Skip straight to Dragon Shovel (more Luck, but slower, and more than double Topaz’s price).
- Spike Shovel
3. Getting Better (Rarer) Brainrots
There are 44 total Brainrots in the game, so tracking the rare ones can be tough.
- Zone Luck modifier
- Each Zone has its own Luck % bonus.
- Farther from your plot = higher chance of rare Brainrots.
- But also more risk of attacks from other players who can steal your Brainrots.
- Use high-Luck, high-Strength shovels
- Shovels with higher Luck and Strength can dig up better eggs that give more money.
- Shovels that boost mutations (Shiny, Shocked, Frozen, etc.) are worth it because mutated Brainrots earn more money.
- Boost Luck with purchases
- You can buy Luck boosts with Robux on the Dirt grounds.
- You can also boost Server Luck with Robux to improve everyone’s odds.
4. Rebirth – How it Works & Why to Do It
Rebirth is a reset mechanic with permanent bonuses.
How to Rebirth
- Click the Rebirth button on the left side of the screen.
- Each Rebirth requires:
- A specific amount of money, and
- Owning certain Brainrots.
- Requirements change each Rebirth and don’t count if you had them before Rebirthing—must meet them again after.
What you get from Rebirth
Rebirth gives stacking permanent bonuses, such as:
- Extra Brainrot slots
- Speed boosts
- Money multipliers (most important)
- Unlocks Cannons, Machine modifiers, and other features on the map.
What you lose on Rebirth
- You lose your Shovels and Brainrots, basically resetting your progress.
- If you bought a Shovel/Bat, that money is gone as part of the process.
Should you Rebirth?
- Yes.:
- Each Rebirth makes future progress much faster thanks to multipliers and extra slots.
- Just time it well and sell items if needed before you Rebirth.
5. PvP & Protecting Your Brainrots (Bats & Stealing)
Stealing system
- Players can steal Brainrots from other players as long as the Brainrots are still in Dirt zones.
- The same can happen to you, so you need to be careful.
How to protect yourself
- If someone attacks while you’re carrying an egg:
- Best move = RUN.
- You can’t attack back while holding a Brainrot.
- Carrying an egg makes you slower, so they can catch you easily.
- Movement & safety tricks:
- Use bunny hopping (spam Jump) to move faster.
- You get a short shield after picking up an egg, but it won’t save you if you’re far out.
- There is a Return Safely feature (teleport back safely), but it costs Robux.
Bats – attacking & defending
You can also attack others to steal their Brainrots using Bats.
Bat stats from the article:
| Bat | Cost | Cooldown | Power | Stun |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wood Bat | $0 | 2.0 s | 25 | 1 |
| Metal Bat | $250,000 | 1.5 s | 75 | 1.5 |
| Diamond | $1,000,000 | 1.0 s | 100 | 2 |
| Big Stick | 319 Robux | 0.5 s | 125 | 3 |
- Recommendation:
- Wood Bat is weak and not very impressive.
- Try to get Metal Bat as soon as possible for a big jump in power and shorter cooldown.
