Dig & Clean Roblox Dig & Clean Guides

Welcome to the Dig & Clean guide hub. This Roblox treasure simulator rewards players who understand its full loop: detect buried loot with a scanner, dig it out with shovel power, clean condition with spray bottles, polish at the station, then sell or display pieces in your museum for gold. Gear upgrades and island unlocks gate the rarest seven rarity tiers (Update 1 added Omega), each marked by a unique glow color on the ground.

Whether you joined during Update 1 or you are returning after a patch, these guides answer the searches that matter — how to move and interact, where to spend gold first, how museum pricing works, and when to sail for Shipwreck Cove. Every article below is written for English readers first and cross-links sibling pages so you never dead-end on a single topic.

Start here if you are new

Getting Started is the day-one walkthrough. It covers the tutorial sequence, your first detector ping, selling a cleaned common treasure, and the shortest path to the Gear Shop plaza at map center. New players who skip straight to rare hunts without understanding condition and polish leave thousands of gold on the table.

After the tutorial, redeem active codes on the Codes page. UPDATE1 and SECRET10 grant timed luck multipliers through the Shop Codes tab — a huge boost before your first serious digging session.

Controls and comfort

Controls documents every default keybind: WASD movement, Space jump, E interact with NPCs and stations, and LMB to swing tools. Dig & Clean is timing-sensitive when rare glows spawn near other players; knowing how to cancel an interaction and re-target your detector quickly prevents lost pings.

Console and mobile players can remap in Roblox settings, but PC defaults are what most competitive diggers use. Read the controls guide before you invest in expensive shovel tiers — mechanical skill matters as much as stats.

Economy: museum, polish, and gold

Money and Museum explains the full gold pipeline. Cleaning raises sell price, the polishing station pushes condition toward mint status, and the museum pays premiums for display-quality pieces. Some treasures are worth holding for your personal collection; others should flip immediately to fund upgrades.

This guide also covers when to sell versus when to polish twice, how bulk commons fund detector tier jumps, and why a single mythic sale can unlock an island boat ride faster than an hour of common grinding.

Gear and upgrade priority

Gear Upgrade Path is the stat investment bible. Buy detector upgrades first because Luck controls ping frequency and rarity rolls. Upgrade your shovel second for Power so hard nodes and deep chests break before the glow despawns. Buy spray bottle tiers last — cleaning matters, but you cannot clean what you never dig up.

All gear sells from the Gear Shop at map center. Detectors, shovels, and spray bottles each have separate gold price ladders. The upgrade guide lists tier breakpoints and pairs them with code timing from the codes page.

Islands and late progression

Island content separates mid-game players from endgame collectors. Talk to the Island NPC to unlock Shipwreck Cove, a zone with denser spawn tables and pirate-themed loot. A pirate NPC at the map edge hints at future expansions and sometimes gates travel to new maps.

Getting Started walks through your first island unlock; Money and Museum explains which rarities to extract before you leave. Bring upgraded shovel power — Shipwreck nodes hit harder than beach commons.

Rarity glow reference

Seven treasure rarities exist in Dig & Clean after Update 1. Each rarity pulses a distinct color underfoot when your detector locks on. Commons and uncommons teach the loop; rares and epics fund gear; legendaries and mythics justify SECRET10 code windows; Omega dark-red glows are the endgame chase on Sphinx Sands.

Rarity tier	Role in progression
Common / Uncommon	Tutorial pacing and bulk gold
Rare / Epic	Shovel and detector tier funding
Legendary / Mythic	Island trips and museum showcases
Omega	Sphinx Sands + Aquamarine gear endgame

Exact hex colors shift slightly by biome, but the relative brightness order never changes. Train your eye during 2× luck sessions so you sprint toward the right ping before competitors arrive. Full Omega farming is on Omega Items.
