Getting Started
Once you create your account, you'll be directed to the Game Shop where you can purchase a Pickaxe. After that, passively mine 5 stone, return to the Game Shop and purchase the Anvil to partially unlock your Crafting skill.
Remember, Idle-Pixel is first and foremost, an idle game. In some aspects progress will be fast, in others it may be a wait of hours or days.
First Quest: Introduction to Crafting with Doric The Crafter
- Collect 3 stone in your Mining tab.
- Navigate to Quests in the sidebar and click on the first Quest.
- Complete the quest instructions from Doric The Crafter to fully unlock the Crafting skill.
- Craft a Stone Furnace for later use.
Resource Management: Oil and Bronze Bars
- Use the first 5 Bronze Bars to craft a Bronze Oil Well.
- Oil is used to fuel the drills and the Stone Furnace. The drill consumes 1 oil per second, balancing out with the oil well.
Second Quests: The Gem Seeker
- Immediately after completing Doric The Crafter's quest, initiate The Gem Seeker quest.
- Craft a drill. You can craft 3, only one is required for quest completion.
- Activate the drill in the Mining tab.
- Collect four types of Gem fragments over time: Sapphire Fragment, Emerald Fragment, Ruby Fragment, Diamond Fragment.
- Each time you collect a fragment, return it to The Gem Seeker.
- After each return, a scroll will appear in your Mining tab. Read it to continue.
- Repeat this process for all four types of Gem fragments to complete the quest.
Levelling Restrictions and Additional Quests
- XP can be gained up to level 30 in both Mining and Crafting.
- To advance beyond level 30, complete the Stardust Expert quest.
Note on Gem Discovery Rates
You will passively find Gems while playing the game; nothing can influence the rate at which you will find these.
- Sapphire: 1 in 100,000 per second (Approx. every 27 hours)
- Emerald: 1 in 250,000 per second (Approx. every 69 hours or 3 days)
- Ruby: 1 in 500,000 per second (Approx. every 139 hours or 6 days)
- Diamond: 1 in 1,000,000 per second (Approx. every 278 hours or 12 days)
Keep in mind that these rates are probabilistic; actual results may vary.
Early Game
Start the achievements quest and complete the goals. They are pretty easy but you might need to wait a bit for ores. To get the broken rake you need to buy leather from the shop and craft the gloves ...Work in Progress...
