On this page
You steal eggs from the Catboys, escape with them to your café and hatch them into Catboys that make money every second. Speed from the cat wheel lets you reach new areas, where guards are faster and eggs are rarer. This page walks through each step using the developer's own description.
What are the steps of the loop?
| Step | What the description says | What it means for you |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Steal eggs from the Catboys | Stealing is the main way to get eggs; the shop also sells egg packs |
| 2 | Escape and bring the eggs back to your café | The run ends at your café |
| 3 | Hatch eggs to collect rare Catboys | Hatching turns an egg into a Catboy |
| 4 | Earn money every second from your Catboys | Catboys are your passive income |
| 5 | Run on your cat wheel to gain Speed | Speed is trained, not only bought |
| 6 | Unlock new areas with faster guards | Later areas need more Speed |
| 7 | Discover rarer eggs and Catboys | Rarer eggs appear as you progress |
Why does Speed matter so much?
The description ties progress to Speed twice: you train it on the cat wheel, and new areas have faster guards. Faster guards mean you need more Speed to escape with an egg. That is why the Robux shop sells eight Speed multipliers, from 2x Speed (3 Robux) to 256x Speed (279 Robux). The shop listing does not say how long each multiplier lasts.
How do you get rarer Catboys?
Rarer Catboys come from rarer eggs, and the description says rarer eggs are found in new areas. The developer products name 11 rarities. The rarities page lists them all with the matching Steal and Skip products.
What do Steal and Skip products do?
The product names suggest two shortcuts, but the listings have no descriptions:
- Steal [rarity]: the name points to taking an egg of that rarity without the normal run. The listing gives no further detail.
- Skip [rarity]: the name points to skipping a wait or a step for that rarity. The listing does not say what is skipped.
Treat both as unconfirmed until the game shows you the prompt. The only product with an official description is Hatch All (80 Robux): "Instantly Hatches All Eggs."
Can you play with friends?
Servers hold up to 8 players, according to the Roblox game record. The description does not mention trading or co-op steals.
What changed in the latest update?
The MUTATIONS + QoL Update listing (2 to 7 November 2026) promises a new egg system, new mutations, new world events and playtime rewards. Details are on the updates page.
