The core loop

Step

In short Every run follows the same cycle: build, save, sail, collect gold, and reinvest.

When you join, you get your own building plot. Lay down blocks to shape your boat, save your work before you leave the plot, and then set sail. Gold you earn at the end funds better blocks and tools for the next build.

Place blocks lay blocks on your plot to form the hull and any structure your boat needs.
Save your build hit the save button before sailing so a wrecked boat does not cost you a full rebuild.
Set sail launch into the stage course and push through each obstacle section.
Reach the chest survive every stage to collect Pure Gold from the treasure chest at the end.
Reinvest spend that gold on better blocks and tools, then start the next build.

Getting through the stages

Warn

In short Speed and structure both matter — too fragile or too fast and you will not finish.

There are at least five stages between launch and the treasure chest. Clearing all of them rewards you with Pure Gold.

Worth watching out for

Do not go too fast if you reach the treasure chest at excessive speed, the chest kills you instead of rewarding you.

Count your stages you need to clear a minimum of five stages before the chest appears.

Hidden areas and secret challenges

Tips

In short Several hidden routes and unusual goals exist well beyond the standard sailing run.

The badges reveal a layer of secrets that most players never see on a normal run.

Tips worth knowing

A suspicious lever on a tree sends you into a cavern area if you pull it.
An obsidian portal leads to a separate dimension where you fight enemies called Gullblocks.
A slightly discolored crystal at the end of the course can be clicked to rescue a creature called the Gubby.
You can reach the treasure without placing a single block — a badge rewards that specific run.
Placing ten or more lamps on your plot, climbing 2048 or more studs into the sky, and hitting a speed of 3000 or more studs per second are each their own challenges.
A hidden duck is somewhere in the game — the badge gives no further hint beyond 'find me'.

Teamwork and the seven-player cap

Summary

In short A full server of seven players unlocks a badge.

Each server holds a maximum of seven players. Filling every slot earns the Full Team badge.

Server size　seven players maximum.
Full team badge　requires all seven slots filled at the same time.
Lockdown mode　a team can enable it to block outsiders from their plot, which also triggers a badge for anyone caught on the plot when it activates.

PvP basics

Check

In short Two badges are tied directly to PvP performance.

PvP blocks let you fight other players. Two badges are tied directly to PvP performance.

The Rampage badge requires ten kills in PvP without dying once.
The Zero Defense All Offense badge requires setting sail with 50 PvP blocks and no other blocks.

Redeem codes

Summary

In short Codes expire and work only once, so use them as soon as you find them.

There is a code-entry field inside the game where you type codes for rewards. Each code can only be redeemed once per account, and codes stop working after they expire.

Expiry　codes become invalid after their distribution period ends.
One-time use　entering the same code a second time gives no additional reward.
