Build
Open the hotbar at the bottom, choose a block or a blueprint and tap the ground. Blueprints — House, Cottage, Farm, Mine, Watchtower, Wall, Bridge, Gold Statue, Castle — cost materials.
Earn
Some buildings produce Blox or stone every 30 seconds while you play. The Backpack crafts bricks (2 stone → 5 bricks) and stone (4 wood → 2 stone).
Ride
Buy a Go-Kart, Speedboat, Helicopter or Airplane in the Shop and place it from the hotbar. The Parachute opens by itself on big falls.
Blox and FamilyCoin
Blox is the in-game currency. You earn it by finishing Obby levels, collecting coins, completing missions and trophies, from your buildings and from seasonal collectibles. Spend it in the Shop on clothes, outfits, hats, pets, tools, vehicles and supplies.
FamilyCoin is a bonus currency tied to your account. A few special items in the Shop show a gold FamilyCoin price. In this beta FamilyCoin only comes from codes and events; there is nothing to buy with real money.
Obby
Reach the flag. Checkpoints save your place inside a level. Stars: one for finishing, one more for collecting at least 60% of the coins, and one more for beating the par time. Easy, Medium and ProGamer each start unlocked at level 1 and unlock level by level.
Arcade
Seven minigames with ten levels each. Each card explains its goal; levels unlock in order and award Blox and stars.
Characters and account
Up to eight characters per account. Each one has its own Blox, inventory, world, missions and trophies; FamilyCoin and premium items belong to the account and work for every character. Switch characters from the menu at any time. Log out from Settings.
Secret codes
The Credits screen has a code box. Codes are given out by the creator for events and testing; each one can be used once per account.
