Starting a new game can be overwhelming. There’s usually a lot thrown at you in the first few minutes—menus you don’t understand, currencies you’ve never seen before, and experienced players zooming past you while you’re still figuring out the controls.
Break a Lucky Block is actually one of the more approachable Roblox games out there, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t things I wish someone had told me when I first started. This guide is designed to get you from “I just clicked Play” to “I actually know what I’m doing” in about 15 minutes of reading.
Let’s get you started the right way.
What is Break a Lucky Block?
Before we dive into the how-to, let’s make sure we’re on the same page about what this game actually is.
Break a Lucky Block is what’s called a “clicker” or “idle” style game. The core gameplay loop is simple:
- Find a Lucky Block (colorful boxes scattered around the map)
- Click on it to break it
- Collect the rewards that drop
- Use those rewards to get stronger
- Unlock new areas with better Lucky Blocks
- Repeat
That’s the basic idea. But within that simple loop, there’s a surprising amount of depth—pets to collect, stats to upgrade, tiers to unlock, and strategies to optimize. You can play it as a casual background game or really dive deep into min-maxing your progress.
The game is:
- ✅ Free to play (with optional Robux purchases)
- ✅ Non-violent (no fighting, just block breaking)
- ✅ AFK-friendly (you can set it up to farm while you’re away)
- ✅ Beginner-friendly (easy to learn, hard to master)
Step 1: Getting Into the Game
First things first—you need to actually find and launch the game.
How to Find Break a Lucky Block
- Open Roblox on your device (PC, mobile, or tablet)
- Log into your account (or create one if you’re new to Roblox)
- Search for “Break a Lucky Block” in the search bar
- Click on the game with the most players (there might be copycats)
- Hit the Play button
Alternatively, if you have the direct link, you can go straight to Break a Lucky Block on Roblox and click Play from there.
Loading In
Once you click Play, you’ll load into the game world. This might take a few seconds depending on your internet connection. You’ll spawn in the Starting Area surrounded by basic Lucky Blocks and other new players.
Take a moment to look around. Notice the colorful blocks scattered everywhere—those are your targets. You’ll also see a UI on your screen showing your stats, coins, and other important information.
Step 2: Understanding the Controls
The controls in Break a Lucky Block are pretty straightforward, but here’s a complete breakdown:
Movement Controls
| Action | PC | Mobile |
|---|---|---|
| Move Forward | W | Virtual joystick |
| Move Backward | S | Virtual joystick |
| Move Left | A | Virtual joystick |
| Move Right | D | Virtual joystick |
| Jump | Spacebar | Jump button |
| Camera Rotation | Mouse | Swipe screen |
Game-Specific Controls
| Action | PC | Mobile |
|---|---|---|
| Break Lucky Block | Left Click | Tap on block |
| Open Inventory | I or Tab | Inventory button |
| Open Shop | B | Shop button |
| Open Menu | ESC | ≡ button |
| Collect Dropped Items | Walk over them | Walk over them |
Pro Tips for Controls
- On PC: If you have a gaming mouse, you can sometimes set up auto-clicking to make farming easier. But check that it’s allowed first—some games consider this cheating.
- On Mobile: Tap and hold can sometimes trigger rapid clicking. Experiment with what works best on your device.
- Camera: Keep your camera zoomed out a bit so you can see more blocks around you. It helps with efficiency.
Step 3: Breaking Your First Lucky Blocks
Okay, you’re in the game, you know the controls—now let’s break some blocks.
Finding Blocks
Look around the starting area. You’ll see boxes that look like wrapped presents or glowing cubes. These are Lucky Blocks. In the starting area, they’re usually gray or simple colors, indicating they’re Common tier blocks.
Breaking Process
- Walk up to a Lucky Block so you’re close to it
- Click on it (PC) or tap it (mobile)
- Watch it break and items will pop out
- Walk over the dropped items to collect them automatically
Each block you break will give you some combination of:
- Coins – The main currency for upgrades
- Items – Equipment, materials, or sellables
- Gems – Premium currency (rarer)
- Pet eggs – Sometimes you’ll get lucky
What to Do With Your Drops
For now, just collect everything. You’ll figure out what’s valuable later. The coins go directly to your counter. Items go to your inventory. It’s all automatic—just break and collect.
Step 4: Your First Goals (The First 30 Minutes)
Here’s what you should focus on accomplishing in your first half hour of play:
Goal 1: Reach 100 Coins (5-10 minutes)
Break Common Lucky Blocks until you have at least 100 coins. This should only take a few minutes of casual clicking. Watch your coin counter in the corner of the screen.
Why 100? Because that’s typically the cost to unlock the second area, which has better blocks.
Goal 2: Unlock the Second Area
Once you have 100 coins:
- Look for an area gate or portal near the edge of the starting zone
- Walk up to it and interact with it
- Purchase the unlock for 100 coins
- Enter the new area
The second area (often called “Green Meadows” or similar) has Uncommon Lucky Blocks that give better rewards than the Common ones in the starting zone.
Goal 3: Get Your First Pet
Pets are incredibly useful in this game. They provide passive bonuses that help you progress faster. Here’s how to get your first pet:
Method A: Starter Gift Some versions of the game give you a free starter egg. Check your inventory for any eggs you can hatch.
Method B: Buy a Basic Egg Once you have some coins, look for the Pet Shop. Buy the cheapest egg available and hatch it.
Method C: Lucky Drop Sometimes Lucky Blocks drop pet eggs directly. It’s rare early on, but it happens.
Whatever pet you get, equip it immediately. Even a tiny bonus is better than none.
Goal 4: Make Your First Upgrade
Now here’s where beginner strategy comes in. You’ll see an Upgrades menu with several stats you can improve:
- Luck – Affects drop quality
- Click Power – How fast you break blocks
- Walk Speed – How fast you move
- Storage – How much you can carry
My recommendation: Put your first points into Luck.
I know it’s tempting to boost Click Power so you can break blocks faster. But Luck affects the quality of every single drop you get. Higher Luck = more coins per block, better items, better pet chances. It compounds over time.
Trust me on this. Upgrade Luck first.
Step 5: Understanding the UI
Let’s take a moment to understand what you’re looking at on screen:
The Main HUD
Coin Counter – Usually top left or center. Shows your current coins.
Gem Counter – Near the coins. Shows premium currency.
Stats Display – Shows your current Luck, Click Power, etc.
Mini-map – If available, shows your location and nearby areas.
Menu Buttons
Look for buttons or icons that open different menus:
- Inventory (I) – Your items and pets
- Shop (B) – Buy upgrades, eggs, and items
- Upgrades – Improve your stats
- Areas – See unlocked and locked zones
- Settings – Game options and graphics
Notifications
Pay attention to the corner of your screen. The game often shows:
- Drop notifications (when you get something good)
- Event announcements
- Code redemption options
Step 6: Redeeming Codes (Free Stuff!)
This is something many new players miss—there are often free codes that give you coins, gems, boosts, and even exclusive items.
How to Redeem Codes
- Look for a Twitter icon or Codes button on your screen
- Click it to open the code redemption menu
- Type in the code exactly as shown (they’re case-sensitive)
- Click Redeem
- Collect your free rewards!
Where to Find Codes
We maintain an updated list of working codes on our Codes page. Bookmark it and check back regularly—codes expire, but new ones get released often.
Common code sources:
- Game’s official Twitter/X account
- YouTube content creators
- Discord server announcements
- Game update announcements
Step 7: Your First Hour Roadmap
Let me give you a clear path for your first hour of gameplay:
Minutes 1-10: Orientation
- Get comfortable with controls
- Break your first 20-30 blocks
- Collect at least 100 coins
- Unlock the second area
Minutes 10-20: Setup
- Redeem any available codes (free stuff!)
- Get your first pet and equip it
- Upgrade Luck 5-10 times
- Explore the second area
Minutes 20-40: Farming
- Focus on breaking blocks in the second area
- Collect coins for the next area unlock (usually 1,000 coins)
- Continue upgrading Luck
- Save any interesting items
Minutes 40-60: Progression
- Unlock the third area if possible
- Start balanced Luck/Click Power upgrades
- Hatch any eggs you’ve collected
- Get familiar with the shop options
By the end of your first hour, you should:
- ✅ Be in the second or third area
- ✅ Have at least one pet equipped
- ✅ Have 50+ points in Luck
- ✅ Understand the basic gameplay loop
Common Beginner Questions
“What should I spend coins on first?”
- Unlock next area (when affordable)
- Luck upgrades (always valuable)
- Click Power (after Luck is decent)
- Pet eggs (once basics are covered)
Avoid cosmetics and unnecessary items early on. Prioritize progression.
“Is it worth spending Robux?”
Not early on. The starter packs you can buy will be outclassed quickly by free progression. If you want to spend Robux later, the VIP Pass tends to be the best value because it’s permanent.
See our full analysis: Is It Pay to Win?
“Why is everything so slow?”
If progress feels sluggish, you’re probably:
- In the wrong tier area for your stats
- Not upgrading Luck enough
- On a crowded server with competition for blocks
Try server hopping (leave and rejoin) to find a less populated server.
“How do I AFK farm?”
You’ll need specific pets with auto-click and auto-collect abilities. It’s not really possible in your first hour, but once you’re set up, the game becomes much more passive.
“Is this game safe for kids?”
Yes! There’s no violence, and Roblox has chat filters. Parents can also enable restrictions in Roblox settings.

Final Thoughts
Starting any new game has a learning curve, but Break a Lucky Block is one of the gentler ones. The core gameplay is intuitive—see block, break block, get stuff. Everything else is optimization.
The most important takeaway: don’t stress about doing everything perfectly from minute one. The game is forgiving. If you make mistakes early, you can always rebirth later and do it better with the knowledge you’ve gained.
Just have fun, break some blocks, and enjoy the satisfying loop of progression. Before you know it, you’ll be the experienced player that new players watch zoom past.
