🌱Early Game (Days 1-7): Foundation Building

Goal: 10,000 Cash + 200 Rubies

Focus on building a diverse animal collection and completing daily quests. Avoid selling animals too early - passive income compounds quickly!

Strategy #1: Redeem All Codes (10 minutes)

Expected Return: 5,000-15,000 Cash + 500-1,500 Rubies

  • ✓ Join the official Roblox group first (required)
  • ✓ Visit our codes page for all active codes
  • ✓ Copy-paste each code carefully (case-sensitive!)
  • ✓ Redeem immediately - codes expire within 1-2 weeks

💡 This is the fastest way to jumpstart your journey!

Strategy #2: Volume Catching (30 minutes)

Expected Return: 2,000 Cash (immediate) + 500 Cash/hour (passive)

  • ✓ Catch 10-15 animals as fast as possible (any rarity)
  • ✓ Priority: Buffalo (25% spawn), Zebra (20% spawn)
  • ✓ Don't waste time hunting rare animals yet
  • ✓ Each animal = 50-200 cash from tourists per hour

Math: 15 animals × 50 cash/hour = 750 cash/hour passive income!

Strategy #3: Daily Quest Speedrun (45 minutes)

Expected Return: 70-120 Rubies + 2,000 Cash

Complete these quests first (easiest & fastest):

  1. Wild Catcher: Catch 10 animals → 20 Rubies (10-15 min)
  2. Feeder Master: Feed animals 20 times → 500 Cash (5 min)
  3. Tourist Magnet: Earn 1,000 from tourists → 1,000 Cash (20 min AFK)

⚡ Total: 20 Rubies + 1,500 Cash in ~45 minutes!

Strategy #4: Smart Selling (Ongoing)

Sell Rule: Only sell when you have 3+ of the same animal

❌ Don't Sell:

  • • Your first 10 animals (need passive income)
  • • Rare+ animals (high tourist value)
  • • Fast animals (Zebra, Ostrich)
  • • Mutations (always keep at least 1)

✅ Do Sell:

  • • 4th+ duplicate Buffalo/Zebra
  • • Extra Common animals after day 3
  • • Animals you don't ride
  • • To free lasso bag space (max 50)

Mid Game (Days 8-21): Scaling Up

Goal: 100,000 Cash + Epic Lasso

Shift focus to Rare/Epic animals and optimize your tourist income. This is where exponential growth begins!

Strategy #5: Epic Animal Farming (2 hours/day)

Expected Return: 15,000-30,000 Cash/day

Target these high-value animals:

🦁

Lion (Epic)

Sell: 2,500 • Tourist: 500/hr • Spawn: 5% at 500m+

HIGH VALUE
🐘

Elephant (Rare)

Sell: 1,200 • Tourist: 250/hr • Spawn: 8% at 300m+

GOOD VALUE
🦒

Giraffe (Rare)

Sell: 1,000 • Tourist: 200/hr • Spawn: 10% at 200m+

GOOD VALUE

💡 Tip: Ride your fastest animal (Zebra/Ostrich) and use Epic+ lasso for 90% catch rate!

Strategy #6: Tourist Income Optimization

Expected Return: 2,000-5,000 Cash/hour (passive)

The Formula for Maximum Tourist Income:

Tourist Income = (Rarity × Size × Quantity) × Diversity Bonus

  • Rarity Multiplier:
    • • Common: 1x
    • • Uncommon: 2x
    • • Rare: 3x
    • • Epic: 5x
    • • Legendary: 10x
  • Size Multiplier: Feed animals to grow them
    • • Small (1-2 feeds): 1x
    • • Medium (3-5 feeds): 1.5x
    • • Large (6-10 feeds): 2x
    • • Huge (11+ feeds): 3x
  • Diversity Bonus: Have at least 1 of each biome type = +25% income

Example: A fully-fed Epic Lion = 500 base × 5 (rarity) × 3 (size) × 1.25 (diversity) = 9,375 cash/hour!

Strategy #7: Mutation Hunting for Profit

Expected Return: 10,000-50,000 Cash per lucky mutation

Now that you have Epic lasso, you can reliably catch mutated animals during special weather:

🌈 Rainbow Weather (10 min)

  • • Catch 15-20 animals
  • • Expected: 1-2 Golden, 1 Rainbow
  • • Value: 15,000+ cash

☀️ Clear Sky (15 min)

  • • Focus on Epic animals
  • • Golden Lion chance: 10%
  • • Value: 12,500+ cash each
