Getting Started Guide
A step-by-step guide to begin your journey in Roach Racing Club
When you first start the game, you'll receive one random roach. This roach will have:
- A specific cryptocurrency asset (BTC, ETH, XRP, etc.)
- Either an UP or DOWN characteristic that determines how it reacts to price movements
- 100 energy (enough for 5 race rounds)
Your first roach is Tier 1 and comes with a basic appearance. As you progress in the game, you'll be able to unlock higher tier roaches with more unique appearances.
Start by entering a free race to learn the game mechanics:
- Select your roach and join a free race
- Your roach will appear transparent in the first round (warming up)
- It will fully participate in the next round
- Use the Boost system to improve your roach's performance
Remember to watch the cryptocurrency chart and predict price movements by pressing UP or DOWN at the right time to boost your roach's speed.
The Boost system is key to winning races:
- Watch the real-time chart of your roach's cryptocurrency
- Press UP if you think the price will rise, or DOWN if you think it will fall
- If your prediction is correct, your boost will be positive
- Close your position when the boost is positive to give your roach a speed boost
Be careful with negative boost! If you close a position with negative boost, your roach will slow down. Sometimes it's better to wait for the market to change direction.
After racing, your roach will run out of energy:
- Charging costs 50 MTGN
- If you don't have enough MTGN, complete missions or invite friends
- Charging takes 2 hours with one generator
- You can instantly complete charging for 2 TRAX
As you progress, consider upgrading your generator to reduce charging time or increasing your battery capacity for better energy compression.
As you earn MTGN and TRAX, consider expanding your collection:
Buy New Slots
- Purchase new slots with TRAX
- Each slot adds a generator that produces 50 energy/hour
- More generators = faster charging
Buy New Roaches
- Purchase new roaches with MTGN
- Each new roach is one tier higher than the previous
- Higher tiers have unique appearances and may be tied to different cryptocurrencies
Upgrade Your Equipment
- Upgrade generators to increase energy production
- Upgrade batteries to increase energy capacity and compression
Try Pro Races
- Enter Pro races for 25 TRAX
- Compete for prize pools and collect MTGN coins on the track
