Find answers to common questions about Don't Steal the Bubu
🎮Getting Started
Don't Steal the Bubu is a Roblox simulation game where you collect cute Bubu creatures while they sleep. You must sneak carefully, as waking them will make them chase you! Build your collection, upgrade your base, and earn cash even when offline.
Simply visit the game on Roblox and click Play. Explore the map to find sleeping Bubus and touch them to collect. Return to your base to place them and start earning cash!
Yes! Don't Steal the Bubu is completely free to play. There are optional in-game purchases (game passes and store items) that enhance gameplay, but they are not required to enjoy the game.
You can play on any device that supports Roblox: PC, Mac, iOS, Android, Xbox, and VR headsets. The game supports both mobile and desktop controls.
⚙️Gameplay Mechanics
Find Bubus sleeping on the map (look for the 😴 emoji). Approach them carefully and touch them to add to your collection. If they wake up, they will chase you - run back to your base!
If you wake a Bubu while trying to steal it, it will chase and attack you. Move carefully, time your approach when they are deep asleep, and always have an escape route planned!
Bubus placed in your base generate cash continuously, even when you are not playing! Fill all your slots before logging off to maximize offline earnings. The game caps offline earnings, so check back regularly.
There are 6 rarity tiers: Normal (⚪), Gold (🟡), Diamond (💎), Rainbow (🌈), Blood Moon (🔴), and Galaxy (🌌). Higher rarities earn significantly more cash but are harder to find. In total, there are 72 unique Bubus across these rarities (432 total).
🔥Heat Mechanics & God-Tier Heists
"Heat" is the central alert and difficulty mechanic that intensifies when you attempt to steal high-value items like God and Mythic Labubus. It represents security alerts or detection levels that you must manage while navigating the game. The Heat system is persistent and repetitive, serving as the primary obstacle between you and your stolen treasures.
The game provides frequent auditory and visual cues to indicate Heat levels. When you hear repeated alerts or see warning indicators flashing on screen, it means the detection system is active and at its peak. Pay attention to both audio and visual signals—the more intense they become, the higher your Heat level.
The repetition of "heat" serves as a tension-building device. It ensures you never feel safe while you have a God or Mythic Bubu in your possession. This constant pressure is intentional game design to create a high-stakes experience that tests your focus under pressure.
While the alerts are constant and frantic, skilled players learn to acknowledge the Heat without panicking. The key is maintaining your composure and continuing the heist rather than stopping. Think of the alerts as background noise—they're designed to intimidate, but freezing in response will only guarantee failure.
The best strategy is to maintain momentum. Despite the constant warnings, successful players continue to push forward. Hesitation is the true enemy. The Heat is meant to slow you down—don't let it. Keep moving toward your escape route no matter how intense the alerts become.
While explicit loss mechanics vary, the frantic nature of the Heat alerts implies that failing to manage the mechanic will lead to a failed heist. If you're caught at maximum Heat, you'll likely lose your stolen items and be returned to a respawn point.
Heat is an unavoidable part of stealing rare Bubus—you cannot simply ignore it. However, the key insight is that you don't need to stop when Heat rises. Momentum is crucial to finishing the heist before the Heat leads to failure. Acknowledge the alerts, but keep moving forward.
The latest update focuses on two primary high-tier rarities: God and Mythic. Elite players aim to secure multiple of these in a single run—stealing 2 Gods and 2 Mythics is considered a top-tier accomplishment in the current meta. Check our God & Mythic Guide for detailed strategies.
Yes! In the New Update, it is absolutely possible to secure at least two God-tier Labubus in a single session. However, expect the Heat to become extremely intense as you add more high-value items. The challenge scales with your ambition—the more Gods you carry, the harder your escape becomes.
📈Upgrades & Progression
Prioritize base slots first for maximum passive income. Then upgrade speed for efficient collection. Defense upgrades become important once you have valuable Bubus. Check our Upgrade Optimization Guide for detailed strategies.
Spend your earned cash on base slot upgrades. Each upgrade unlocks more slots to place Bubus. More slots = more passive income = faster progression!
Speed upgrades make your character move faster, helping you collect Bubus more efficiently and escape from awakened Bubus easier. However, upgrades have diminishing returns after level 5-6.

Yes, if their base is unlocked. However, this is risky and considered poor sportsmanship by many players. It is better to focus on collecting from the map and trading fairly.
