❌ Common Beginner Mistakes (Avoid These!)

Selling Brainrots Too Early

New players sell Brainrots for quick cash. Don't! Their passive income far exceeds their sell value over time.

Ignoring Daily Tasks

Daily tasks give 50M+ cash for 10 minutes of work. This is your fastest early progression method!

Not Joining the Group

Missing the free +15% permanent income boost. This compounds to millions over time!

Skipping Shop Refreshes

Shop refreshes every 5 minutes. Rare plants appear randomly - you'll miss them if you don't check!

Rushing to Rebirth

Rebirting at 10M wastes potential. Wait until 100M+ when your Brainrot collection is established.

Not Understanding Mutations

Mutations matter more than rarity! Learn the system early to avoid selling valuable mutated Brainrots.

💡 Essential Beginner Tips

✅ Save Mutated Brainrots

Any Brainrot with Gold, Diamond, Neon, or higher mutation is worth keeping. Check before selling!

✅ Use "Equip Best" Button

Automatically equips your highest-earning Brainrots. Use this every hour to optimize income.

✅ Check Discord for Events

Limited-time events offer exclusive rewards. Join the official Discord to never miss them.

✅ Learn Rarity Colors

Cyan glow = Secret (best). Pink = Godly. Red = Mythic. Know these to identify valuable drops instantly.

✅ Mix Plant Types

Don't buy only one plant type. Diversify for better coverage and synergy effects.

✅ Play During Events

Events have boosted drop rates and exclusive limited Brainrots. Maximize your playtime then!
