GREAT SCHOOL BREAKOUT — Your first steps in the game
About
OverviewGreat School Breakout is a first-person obby where you escape a school run by the world's most unreasonable teacher, Mr. Pickle. You dodge traps, solve puzzles, and avoid getting caught across two difficulty modes. This guide covers everything from your first run to the no-death challenge and both secret badges.

Your first steps in the game
Step
The game puts you in first person by default. If that makes you feel sick, tap the Eye Icon on screen to switch to a different view. Once you are comfortable, pick Easy mode and start working through the school. Dying carries no penalty, so treat every failed attempt as a free lesson in how a trap or puzzle works.
- Check your view if first person feels uncomfortable, press the Eye Icon before you go any further.
- Choose Easy mode play all the way through once just to learn the layout and the kinds of traps the game uses.
- Observe before moving scan the area ahead of you to spot traps before you step into them.
- Die freely there is no punishment for dying, so experiment and learn from each mistake.
- Stay away from Mr. Pickle if he gets close, run in the opposite direction or find somewhere to hide.
Easy mode vs. Hard mode
Table
Both modes take you through the same school, but Hard mode has much more challenging obstacles and puzzles to solve. The skills you build on Easy translate directly into Hard. One of the two secret badges is locked to Hard mode entirely, so you will need to clear it eventually if you want everything the game offers.
| Easy mode | fewer and simpler traps, straightforward puzzles, ideal for learning the game. |
| Hard mode | much more challenging obstacles and puzzles. |
| Secret Badge #2 | Hard mode only; you cannot get it on Easy no matter what. |
Things to check when you are stuck
CheckWhen a section stops you cold, slow down rather than rushing through it again the same way. Most obstacles have a tell if you look carefully enough.
- Scan the whole screen are there traps at the edges or above you that you have been ignoring?
- Rethink the puzzle order are you trying the steps in the right sequence?
- Check your view setting if first-person is causing disorientation, switch it off with the Eye Icon.
Finding both secret badges
TipsThere are two secret badges hidden in the game. Secret Badge #1 can be found somewhere in Easy mode, and Secret Badge #2 is hidden in Hard mode — it cannot appear anywhere else. Neither badge sits on the route you naturally follow to beat the game, so you have to go looking for them deliberately.
- Look high up and behind walls, not just at ground level.
- Pay attention near puzzles, since the area around a puzzle mechanism can hide things that are easy to overlook.
- Secret Badge #2 requires you to be in Hard mode; loading Easy will not work for that one.
The no-death challenge
Warn
To earn either no-death badge, you must finish the entire run without dying or getting caught by Mr. Pickle even once.
Badges and what they tell you about goals

Common questions
FAQFirst-person view makes me feel sick. Can I turn it off?
Yes. Press the Eye Icon on screen to switch away from first-person view.
I cannot find either secret badge. Where should I look?
Both badges are off the main path, so you need to explore areas you would normally walk straight past. Check high spots, behind walls, and the space around puzzle mechanisms. Remember that Secret Badge #2 only appears in Hard mode.
Do I need to spend Robux to access any part of the game?
No. Every mode, both secret badges, and all no-death challenges are free. There are no paid advantages in Great School Breakout.
Can I play this on a console?
Yes, the game is console compatible, so you are not limited to PC.
