Welcome to Bloxburg Guide: Jobs, Moods, Building Tips, and Gamepasses Explained
A practical Welcome to Bloxburg guide for new players: raise your moods, pick high-paying jobs, build a starter house, and choose gamepasses.
Welcome to Bloxburg is a roleplay life-simulation on Roblox where you earn money, build a home, and live out a second life. This guide covers first-day setup, job access, shared work XP, and build tools, while labeling community tips as dated rather than treating them as current game rules.
Getting Started: Your First Session in Welcome to Bloxburg
The main menu presents three buttons before you ever load a plot, and knowing what each one does is the first lesson in any Welcome to Bloxburg guide. Options handles settings such as who can donate to you and the weather. Store sells gamepasses, in-game cash, and Bux for Robux. Neighborhoods is a paid private-server feature for you and your friends, with its own name, weather, time of day, and join permissions β creator walkthroughs note it doesn't boost your earnings, so skip it unless you specifically want a quiet server.
Press Play and you'll choose between a blank plot and a pre-built starter home. Community advice splits here: keep the free house while you save up, or bulldoze it right away and put that money toward your own build. Movement basics are WASD to walk, spacebar to jump, and shift to run, per the now.gg beginner's guide.
Bloxburg has been a platform staple for years. A wikiHow guide published March 22, 2020 noted the game had already passed 2.5 billion visits by that date. You can jump in from the official Welcome to Bloxburg page on Roblox.
Moods: The Hidden Multiplier Behind Your Paycheck
Four bars sit under the person icon in your bottom menu: hunger, energy, hygiene, and fun. An older wikiHow guide reports that higher moods can affect work earnings, with fun having a large effect. The current official FAQ describes the moods but does not publish a pay formula, so treat the exact relationship as a community report.
| Mood | Fastest fix | Other options |
|---|---|---|
| Hunger | Cook from fridge ingredients | Buy food at the pizza or burger place, drink smoothies |
| Energy | Sleep in a bed | Couches, chairs, coffee, mood boosts |
| Hygiene | Take a shower | Bathtub, sink, toilet, pool, hairbrush or perfume |
| Fun | Watch TV (press Watch, not just Turn On) | Computer, toy, book, pool |
A community favorite trick covered in nearly every Welcome to Bloxburg guide video is the "mood station": park a cheap bathtub within reach of a wall-mounted TV, then bathe and watch at the same time so fun and hygiene climb together. The creator walkthrough that popularized it paired the tub with a basic TV stand, the cheapest refrigerator, and a sleeping bag, then bulldozed the whole setup once the money was banked. If you plan long grinding sessions, the Marvellous Mood gamepass keeps your bars high for longer.
How to Make Money in Welcome to Bloxburg
The official Bloxburg FAQ says you can start work through the Jobs app on the in-game phone or by walking into a job location. It also says all jobs contribute to total work XP and income gradually rises in every job as that XP levels up. Version 0.12.6 of the official update log records equal pay across all jobs, so older job-by-job payout rankings should not be treated as current guidance.
Choose Work You Enjoy
Coffee Stainβs official game page lists delivery person, pizza baker, and hairdresser as examples of professions. The official sources do not publish a live pay ranking. Try the roles available in your game and compare repeated results under similar conditions if you want to assess earnings.
The official FAQ says Excellent Employee increases income from working, but does not publish a numeric multiplier or promotion-XP effect. Check the live gamepass description and price in the Roblox or in-game store.
Levels, Skills, and Streaks
Leveling up is the long game. The wikiHow guide notes that reaching the maximum job level of 50 earns the Excellence Award, though it can take months or even years of play. Skills pay out along the way β the same guide, published March 22, 2020, lists $500 for cooking level 1, $2,500 for athletic level 14, and $20,000 for athletic level 29. Train athletic skill at the Bloxburg Gym, build music skill with instruments or the DJ Booth at the Beat Nightclub, and grow gardening skill by planting and harvesting on your plot.
Free money also stacks up outside of work. Daily login streaks of 7, 14, 30, 100, and even 365 days pay out $10,000 or more plus a stellar trophy, according to that same guide. Gardening is the other slow burn: the guide notes a lemon tree costs $360 to plant and yields $225 per harvest, and you can harvest from it multiple times.
Trimming Your Bills
Small savings compound. Spawn the cheapest plot, keep your house value low, and cut unnecessary lights and electronics β windows give you free natural light. A solar panel reduces bills further, and if you take long breaks, toggle off "Automatically Pay Bills" in the options menu. When you're rebuilding, use undo instead of delete for a full refund, and sell inventory items you no longer want, though expect only a partial refund. A community tip on the wikiHow page suggests planting inexpensive fruit trees with a sprinkler so they grow while you work.
Seasonal Events
Limited-time events are a reliable income spike. Bloxburg runs an annual Elf Hunt each December, and the 2025 Halloween Spotlight added a two-part quest chain. As reported by Sportskeeda in a guide published October 24, 2025, the Spotlight event ran through November 3, 2025 and rewarded a Rune and a Key for unlocking UGC in the event hub. Earning the Rune meant collecting 500 Halloween tickets β mailboxes in front of neighborhood houses gave 25 tickets each, your own plot paid 15 tickets when someone interacted with it, and each plot reset after five minutes. The Key came from Sabrina's multi-step story quest. Expect similar collect-and-quest structures whenever a new event lands.
Building and Decorating Your First House
The building half of this Welcome to Bloxburg guide is where most new players lose money. Start with walls β hold and drag to place them β but resist the box shape everyone defaults to. Add a few corners and offsets so the footprint reads like a real house, and leave space between the front door and the sidewalk so you can run a pathway. Gentle curves look better than sharp, rigid turns.
Roofs are the next trap. Choose a gable roof and switch from automatic to manual placement, then click four points, adjust the height, and right-click to finalize. Manual placement also works better for floors, especially wood planks, which can look strange when auto-placed. If a gap appears between the roof and the wall, hide it with a thin crown molding wall trim.
Then decorate. Tap and drag to move items, press R to rotate, and use grid snapping to keep things tidy. Plants, books, and vases fill empty corners cheaply, and a TV on a fireplace or console table anchors a living room. Paint using the material and color tabs β matching your path to the sidewalk's concrete gray is a small touch that sells the whole yard.
Budget discipline matters more than any single trick. One reader answer on the wikiHow page recommends building in small chunks: finish a kitchen, work a shift, then come back and add the living room. Your design saves automatically, so you can return to build mode whenever you like.
Gamepasses: Which Ones Are Worth the Robux
This Welcome to Bloxburg guide's recommended purchase order comes straight from creator consensus: Multiple Floors first if you can only buy one, then Excellent Employee or Marvellous Mood, then Advanced Placing, then Large Plot or Premium, and Basements last.
| Gamepass | What it does |
|---|---|
| Multiple Floors | Adds up to four extra floors, for five total |
| Advanced Placing | Lets items overlap and sit closer β essential for counters, cabinets, and pillars |
| Large Plot | Expands your buildable area for mansions and castles |
| Basements | Unlocks underground rooms and porch tricks |
| Excellent Employee | Increases income from working, according to the official FAQ |
| Marvellous Mood | Keeps your mood bars high for longer |
| Premium | Nametag, higher donation level, choose-your-own plot spawn, doubled daily bonus, half bills |
Pricing changes over time, so confirm it in the in-game store. For reference, the wikiHow guide published March 22, 2020 listed Marvellous Mood at 180 Robux, Excellent Employee at 300 Robux, and Premium at 400 Robux.
