| Speed | resets to its starting value after every rebirth |
| Cash | lost completely when you rebirth |
| Collectibles | stay with you through every rebirth |
| New item rarity | unlocked with each rebirth up to Rebirth 6, which opens Secret items |
| New weapons | Springeebot's weapon shop adds options after each rebirth |
| New areas | one new area unlocks per rebirth until Rebirth 6, after which no more open |

Surviving dangerous waves
TipsWaves range from harmless healers to instant-kill threats. A handful of them need specific reactions rather than just running away.
- Bear5 pauses and plays a sound the moment it spawns — use that window to get into a cubby, not a trench, because it reaches into trenches.
- Birch Tree kills anyone who looks at it for 2.5 continuous seconds — angle your camera at the floor whenever it is on screen.
- Beep Block Wave switches its dangerous side every 4 seconds and flashes three times before switching — wait for the flash, then pass through the safe side.
- Allan Wave's gas trail deals damage even after the wave passes; during the Stinking Event it stacks with the map's health drain, so pick routes that avoid old gas.
- Touching Acrid or another healer wave restores 100 HP — if your health is low, stay near them rather than running past.
- Baldi Wave moves only when it slaps its ruler, roughly every 3 seconds — treat the pause as a window to reposition, but watch that other waves don't catch you while you wait.
Taking down the Airship
StepThe Airship can spawn once the Severity meter exceeds 3.0. It attacks with a gatling gun, barrages of missiles, and waves of Reapers, so go in prepared.
- Check your speed being above 100 or 125 makes it much easier to dodge attacks on open ground.
- Equip a ranged weapon melee cannot reach the Airship because it flies; a Sniper Rifle or N.A.F.T. works best.
- Get into a dumpster cubby the gatling cannot hit you inside one, your bullets still pass through, and Reaper Waves are kept out at the same time.
- Handle missiles from a distance with the Sniper Rifle or N.A.F.T., which destroy them in one shot; if a missile is already close, dodge using your speed rather than trying to shoot it.
- Avoid automatic weapons for missile destruction their inaccuracy makes them unreliable at that task.
Events and what they change
SummaryWhen an event is active it affects every server at once.
- Stinking Event the map deals 1 damage every 2 seconds to all players, waves slow down, and Stinky, Poopy, and Glow mutations spike; the exclusive Glowstick Wave can appear
- Storm Event lightning strikes random map locations and instantly kills anyone it hits, but also pushes the Electro mutation higher; the exclusive Sidewalk Puddle wave can appear
The Wave Garage
TipsThe Wave Garage sits on the map and charges Tokens per wave. Viewing every wave in it earns the Tsunami of Knowledge badge.
- Acrid costs 8 Tokens in the Wave Garage and heals 100 HP on contact.
- Allan Wave costs 6 Tokens.
- Bear5 costs 30 Tokens and is classified Dangerous — it can clear enemy-wave minions like Tario Wave's or Verity Wave's crowds.
- Birch Tree costs 30 Tokens.
- Fraud Wave costs 4 Tokens and is the controlled way to trigger the Fraud status needed for the Anniversary: Fraud Edition subchapter, removing the need to wait for a random spawn.
- Viewing every wave in the garage completes it and awards the Tsunami of Knowledge badge.
The Anniversary: Fraud Edition subchapter
StepThis subchapter was added on September 13, 2026. There are two ways in, but both require you to have already secured a Secret item and earned the Secret Media badge.
- Earn the Secret Media badge you must obtain your first Secret item, which only becomes available from Rebirth 6 onward.
- Path A (random): get hit by Fraud Wave so the Fraud status is on you, then let Bricks Wave kill you this teleports you into The Battle Bricks. Fraud Wave can spawn naturally but is very rare, so using the Wave Garage to spawn it for 4 Tokens is far more consistent.
- Path B (shortcut): look for a miscolored spot to the left of the rebirth door go through it to reach a room with a green door that leads directly to The Battle Bricks. This door only appears once you have the Secret Media badge.
- With the Secret Media badge held, you can now play the subchapter through whichever path you used.
Avoiding a false ban from the anticheat
WarnThe game's anticheat watches for signs of cheating such as lag switching. Older devices, low-end PCs, and most phones naturally lag at higher graphics settings, which the anticheat can misread as cheating.

Common questions
FAQDo I lose my collectibles when I rebirth?
No — collectibles stay with you through every rebirth. The only things you lose are your speed and all your cash.
I got teleported to a different game without warning — what happened?
The anticheat detected lag it read as cheating and sent you to Escape Tsunami for Brainrots. Wait one full day and you can rejoin. To avoid it happening again, set your Roblox graphics quality to the lowest setting before playing.
How do I reach the Anniversary: Fraud Edition subchapter?
First, earn the Secret Media badge by finding a Secret item, which requires at least Rebirth 6. After that, either get hit by Fraud Wave and then die to Bricks Wave, or find the miscolored spot left of the rebirth door and use the green room inside — both lead to The Battle Bricks.
What weapons work on the Airship?
Only ranged weapons can hit the Airship because it stays airborne the entire fight. A Sniper Rifle or N.A.F.T. are the best choices since they can also destroy incoming missiles in one shot.
