[❄️ARCTIC] Block Mayhem X
Your first steps in the game
Step
Blocks fall automatically, so the moment you join you can start collecting. Your first goals are the block-count badges at 100, 1,000, and 10,000 blocks — those come naturally as you play. At the same time, check the quest board: completing even one quest earns gems, which you spend in the shop on workers and upgrades.
- Check the quest board find the easy row and pick up any quest you can finish quickly, like playing for five minutes (60 gems) or collecting 100 blocks.
- Collect blocks every block counts toward your running badge total.
- Vote on maps a map vote happens every ten minutes, so pick the map that has blocks you need.
- Spend gems in the shop gems from quests go toward rolling for workers in the Summoning Shop.
- Watch the sky sky color tells you which event is active, and some events are worth changing what you do immediately.

Block rarities explained
SummaryEvery block sits in one of five rarities. The gap between each tier is not a small step — it multiplies fast. Chromatic and Inverted versions of each block also exist and are far harder to find than their normal counterparts; the rarest block in the game, Chromatic Zenith, sits at 1 in 562,500,000,000.
- Rare the starting rarity, blue.
- Epic roughly 3x rarer than Rare, purple.
- Legendary roughly 75x rarer than Rare, yellow.
- Mythical roughly 750x rarer than Rare, red.
- Godly anywhere from 10,000x to 50,000x rarer than Rare, rainbow.
Maps and where blocks come from
TipsThere are seven main maps — Overworld, Void, Ocean, Cave, Lava, Dreamland, and Arctic — plus two submaps. A vote rotates maps every ten minutes, and every non-submap map has an equal chance of appearing. Glitch is a submap with a 1-in-44 chance of appearing, and it cannot show up the moment you join a new server; you have to wait through at least one full ten-minute cycle first.
- Each map has its own block pool, so the blocks available in Lava will not appear in Ocean.
- Glitch is the only place to find blocks like Amalgam, which spawns at 1 in 111,111,111.
- Baseplate is the other submap, home to unusual blocks including Thing and TROLL.
- Chromatic and Inverted versions of blocks exist for every map and are much rarer than the base versions.
Six events and how to use them
Check
Events fire randomly and change the rules of the server for a short window. Each one has a visible sky color so you can identify it instantly. Some last nearly three minutes; one lasts only fifteen seconds.
- Green sky Lucky Hourglass (180 seconds): base luck doubles. Stack any luck boosts you have active during this window, but note that only base luck is multiplied, not boosts you have already added on top.
- Purple sky Fragment Frenzy (90 seconds): every block you collect duplicates. Singularity is especially strong here because he collects blocks as he moves, triggering duplications constantly.
- Orange sky Workers Revolt (90 seconds): worker cooldowns drop. Void King, Exploiter, and Singularity all benefit so much that they collect almost instantly during this event.
- Blue sky Diamond Storm (60 seconds): Diamond blocks spawn at 1 in 100,000. They give gems when collected but cannot be added to your inventory like normal blocks.
- Pink sky Ascension Surge (40 seconds): blocks upgrade one rarity tier when collected.
- Black sky The Inverting (15 seconds): every block you pick up becomes its Inverted version. It ends very quickly, so act fast if you want Inverted blocks.
Workers: automatic collection and luck
TipsWorkers collect blocks for you while you focus on other things. Every worker at Epic rarity and above — except Ghost — has an active ability. You roll for workers in the Summoning Shop using gems.
- Rare workers like Noob and Barbarian have no abilities but still provide a baseline luck boost.
- Epic workers bring abilities such as Explosive Touch, which collects every block within ten studs on each pickup.
- Legendary workers add effects like Ritual, which fuses nearby blocks into a rarer one every 90 seconds, and Extract, which drops five gems every time any block is collected.
- Mythical workers include Singularity, which collects all blocks as it moves — making it one of the best choices during Fragment Frenzy and Workers Revolt.
- Godly workers carry the strongest abilities: Sweep clears every block on the entire map every 40 seconds, and Exploiter also performs near-instant collection during Workers Revolt.
- The Summoners Crown unique gear increases the odds of rolling higher-rarity workers by 75%.

Common questions
FAQHow do I get the Glitch map to appear?
Glitch is a submap that has a 1-in-44 chance of showing up during any map vote. It cannot appear the moment you join a new server — you have to wait through at least one full ten-minute cycle before it can be drawn. After that, every vote gives it another 1-in-44 shot.
Where do I get gems?
Completing quests is the main source — even easy quests pay 25 to 150 gems each. During a Diamond Storm event, collecting Diamond blocks also gives gems. Workers with the Extract ability (Legendary rarity) drop five gems per block collected, and the Mythical Excavate ability drops ten gems per block.
How many gears can I equip at once?
You can equip one normal gear and one unique gear at the same time, for a total of two.
Does Lucky Hourglass affect luck boosts from workers and gears?
Lucky Hourglass doubles your base luck only, not the additional luck you have stacked from workers or gears. Those boosts are still active during the event.
What is the best worker to use during Fragment Frenzy?
Singularity is especially effective during Fragment Frenzy because he collects all blocks as he moves, and each collection triggers the duplication effect. During Workers Revolt, Void King, Exploiter, and Singularity all benefit from the reduced cooldowns and can collect at near-instant speed.
