Getting started
Step
When you first load in, the game walks you through how to move the boat. Pay attention to the buttons for left, right, speeding up, and slowing down — you will need all of them. Once you feel comfortable, head into the stage and set off downstream.
- Learn the controls follow the on-screen prompts until moving the boat feels natural.
- Join the official group the game offers rewards for joining the official group.
Surviving the river
Tips
Rocks and driftwood float throughout the river and will damage your boat on contact. Too much speed makes it harder to react, so back off the throttle whenever the river gets crowded with hazards. Work with the current to carry you forward, and use left and right movement to thread through gaps.
- Slow down before sections packed with obstacles — high speed leaves no time to react.
- Scan ahead constantly so you see what is coming before you are already on top of it.
- Let the current do some of the work rather than fighting it.
- Angle the boat through narrow gaps instead of trying to pass straight through.
What to do after a game-over
Check
Taking a moment to review what went wrong turns a frustrating run into useful information. There are three common causes worth checking every time.
- Wrong button press did the boat suddenly turn the wrong way because you hit the wrong key?
- Too much speed were you going fast through a section full of hazards when you hit something?
- Late reaction did you spot the obstacle in time but steer too slowly to clear it?

Common questions
FAQHow do I stop my boat from breaking?
Slow down whenever you see a cluster of rocks or debris ahead, and steer around hazards early rather than at the last second.
Can I get all the badges without spending Robux?
Yes, every badge in the game is free to earn. The hidden ones — underwater, in the air, the chest, the cannon, and the car — just require exploring off the main river route.
Where do I enter a code?
There is a code input field inside the game itself. Codes can expire or be limited to one use, so enter any code you find as soon as possible.
