About
OverviewMoo Moo Mystery is a space-station murder mystery on Roblox where every player is secretly assigned one of three roles — Researcher, Cow, or Security — and must work toward a completely different goal from everyone else. This guide covers how each role works, how to get better at all three, and how to spend the cash you collect along the way.

The three roles and what they want
TableIn short
Knowing your role the moment the round starts is the single most important thing you can do.
Each round, the game randomly assigns you a role. Roles are never chosen by players — the game decides. Once you see your role on screen, your goal is locked in for that round.
| Researcher | survive by hiding from the Cow and exposing its identity to the rest of the team |
| Cow | hunt down and eliminate Researchers without being shot by Security |
| Security | carry a gun, patrol the station, and take out the Cow before it kills the Researchers |

Collecting cash and buying items
Summary
In short
Picking up cash throughout matches lets you unlock hats, knives, guns, emotes, and cow skins from the shop.
Cash spawns around the station during play. There are three sizes, each worth a different amount. Rarer piles are harder to find but give a much bigger reward. The shop sells cosmetics including cows, which change how your character looks. Three cow skins are also available through Daily Rewards rather than the shop.
- Normal Cash worth 4 cash each, the most common type on the map
- Medium Cash Pile worth 15 cash each, still fairly common
- Huge Cash Pile worth 50 cash each, the rarest type and the hardest to find
- Shop spends cash on hats, knives, guns, emotes, and cow skins
- Daily Rewards the only way to obtain three specific cow skins not sold in the shop
