How each stage works
SummaryStages are built around a two-part structure. First you climb to a scenic summit, then you ride your kayak from the top back down. Coins are scattered along the descent, and completing a stage can reward you with a pet. Multiple stages are available, each with its own difficulty and its own set of pets.
- Stage loop climb the mountain, then kayak from the summit to the bottom.
- Coins collectible currency found on the route during your descent.
- Pets awarded at random when you complete a stage.
- Difficulty stages vary in how hard they are to navigate.
- Unlock progression coins you earn are spent to open new kayaks and gear.
Earning coins faster
TipsCoins are the engine of your progression, so knowing how to stack them matters. You earn them by finishing stages and picking up the ones scattered along each route.
- Replay stages you have already beaten — even easier routes add up over multiple runs.
- Scan the sides of the path during your descent so you do not miss hidden coins.
- Move to harder stages when you feel ready — they pay out more.
Picking the right kayak and gear
TableYour kayak and gear work as a pair, and you can swap them between stages. Early options are forgiving and easy to handle. Rarer unlocks perform better overall but take more skill to control.
| Speed kayak | clears stages quickly on straightforward courses. |
| Stability gear | the better choice when a course needs careful steering. |
| Balanced loadout | solid performance across most stages without strong weaknesses. |
| Rare kayak | higher speed and durability, but harder to handle. |
Building your pet collection
CheckPets are earned at random when you finish a stage, and each stage has its own pool of pets that can appear. To collect them all you need to play across every stage, not just your favourite. The in-game catalogue shows which pets you are still missing.
- Each stage has its own pet pool you will not see every pet by staying on one route.
- Unlock new stages as soon as you can to access pets unavailable earlier.
- Open the in-game catalogue to track which pets are still missing.
Redeem codes — what you need to know
WarnCodes hand out rewards like coins, gear, and pets for free. You enter them in the code box inside the game. Each code only works once per account, and some codes have an expiry date after which they stop working entirely. The official group is one of the best places to hear about new codes when they go live.

Common questions
FAQI keep running out of coins before I can unlock the next item. What should I do?
Pick a stage you can clear comfortably and repeat it several times — coins add up even on shorter runs. Once you have enough skill, moving to a harder stage will raise your earnings per run.
Where do I find new codes after launch?
Joining the official group is the most reliable way, since codes are announced there. You can also check the announcements inside the game itself so you do not miss a time-limited release.
Why am I not finding certain pets no matter how many times I replay a stage?
Each stage has its own pet pool, and some pets only appear in stages you have not unlocked yet. Check your in-game catalogue to see which pets are missing, then figure out which stage they come from and head there.
