Shrimp Game Free Robux Guide (2026) — Tips, Codes & Strategies
Shrimp Game is a Squid Game-inspired survival competition on Roblox where dozens of players compete through deadly mini-games until one winner remains. Developed by V_Champion_ and The Shrimp Game group, it's crossed 1 billion visits and remains one of the platform's most intense elimination experiences. This guide covers every mini-game, all active codes for June 2026, survival strategies, and how to earn free Robux to customize your character.

1. Getting Started with Shrimp Game
Shrimp Game drops you into a lobby with dozens of other players, then puts everyone through a gauntlet of elimination mini-games. The last player standing wins. You don't need to spend anything to play — every round and every mini-game is free.
When you first join, you'll spawn in the waiting lobby. Once enough players are present, the match begins and the game randomly selects a sequence of mini-games from its roster of nine. Each game eliminates a chunk of the remaining players. Rounds move fast, and a full match from lobby to final winner typically takes 10 to 15 minutes.
The game draws obvious inspiration from the Netflix show Squid Game, but it's been running on Roblox since well before the show's second season. V_Champion_ and the team have added their own twists, including unique mini-games like Six-Legged Pentathlon and Sky Shrimp Game that don't appear in the show at all.
Credits are the in-game currency you earn by playing rounds and redeeming codes. You'll use them to purchase abilities like Push and Glass Tester from the shop. These abilities aren't required to win, but they give you a noticeable edge in specific mini-games. More on those in section 4.
To join a game, search for "Shrimp Game" on Roblox or use the direct game link (Place ID: 7606564092). The game supports both PC and mobile players, though precision-based mini-games are easier with a mouse and keyboard.
2. All 9 Mini-Games Explained (2026)
Shrimp Game currently features nine distinct mini-games. Each one tests a different skill — reaction time, memory, precision, or pure luck. Here's what to expect from every game and how to approach each one.
Red Light, Green Light
The classic. Move toward the finish line when the light is green, freeze when it turns red. Any movement detected during a red light eliminates you instantly. The game typically eliminates 30-40% of the lobby in the first round when this is selected.
The key to surviving is releasing your movement keys slightly before the light switches. Server lag means that even if you stop the instant the light turns red on your screen, the server might still register you as moving. Short, controlled bursts of forward movement are far safer than holding sprint and hoping to stop in time.
Dalgona
You're given a candy shape and must carefully trace its outline without breaking the cookie. This is a precision mini-game that punishes rushing. The shapes range from simple circles to complex stars and umbrellas.
Take your time. There's a generous timer, and most eliminations happen because players rush through the tracing. Move your cursor slowly and steadily along the outline. On mobile, use a stylus if you have one — finger tracing on a small screen is where most mobile players fail this game.
Lights Out
The arena goes dark and players must avoid hazards they can't see. You'll need to memorize the layout before the lights cut and then navigate to safety based on memory. Staying near the edges of the safe zone before the lights go out is the safest approach, since you need to move less distance in the dark.
Hide & Seek
One or more seekers hunt the remaining players within a time limit. If you're hiding, find a spot behind objects or in corners and stay still. Movement is your biggest enemy — seekers spot moving players far more easily than stationary ones. If you're the seeker, check behind large objects first since that's where most players go.
Jump Rope
A rope swings across the arena and you must jump over it. The speed increases over time, and the rope's timing becomes less predictable in later stages. Watch the rope's shadow on the ground rather than the rope itself — the shadow gives you a more accurate read on when to jump, especially at higher speeds.
Glass Stepping Stones
Players cross a bridge made of glass panels, but only some panels are safe. Step on the wrong one and you fall. Without any abilities, this game is roughly 50/50 luck on each panel. Players at the front of the line face the most risk since they're guessing first.
This is where the Glass Tester ability becomes invaluable. With Glass Tester active, safe panels are highlighted, removing the guesswork entirely. If you don't have Glass Tester, let other players go first and follow the path they've proven to be safe. It's a legitimate strategy that most experienced players use.
Mingle
A number is called out and players must quickly form groups of exactly that number. Anyone left outside a group or in a group of the wrong size gets eliminated. Communication isn't needed — just run to the nearest cluster of players and count. If your group is too large, step away and find a smaller one. If it's too small, merge with nearby players.
Six-Legged Pentathlon
This is one of Shrimp Game's original creations. It's a multi-stage obstacle course that combines running, jumping, and dodging in rapid succession. The course changes layout between rounds, so memorizing a single path won't help. Focus on quick reactions and staying near the center of each platform to give yourself more room to dodge incoming obstacles.
Sky Shrimp Game
The final-round mini-game that takes place on elevated platforms high above the arena. It combines elements of several other games into one high-stakes showdown. Falls are instant elimination. The reduced platform size means Push is extremely dangerous here — both for the target and for the pusher if they're near an edge.
3. Tips and Strategies for Winning in 2026
Winning a full round of Shrimp Game means surviving 4-6 consecutive mini-games against dozens of opponents. Consistency matters more than skill in any single game. Here are the strategies that experienced players rely on.
Positioning Is Everything
In movement-based games like Red Light Green Light and Glass Stepping Stones, your position relative to other players matters enormously. Don't be the first person to move or the last. The middle of the pack gives you the most information (you can watch what happens to players ahead of you) while keeping you safe from Push attacks aimed at leaders.
Manage Your Abilities
Push and Glass Tester both cost Credits to activate. Don't burn them in the first round. Save Glass Tester for when Glass Stepping Stones actually appears, and save Push for critical moments in later rounds when fewer players remain and each elimination matters more.
Learn the Elimination Patterns
Each mini-game has a typical elimination rate. Red Light Green Light usually cuts 30-40% of players. Glass Stepping Stones can eliminate 50% or more. Dalgona and Jump Rope tend to be more forgiving, cutting 15-25%. Knowing these rates helps you gauge how cautious to be in each game.
Stay Calm in the Final Three
When you're down to the last 3-5 players, the temptation is to play aggressively. Don't. Let other players make mistakes. In games like Jump Rope or Red Light Green Light, patience wins more finals than aggression. The player who panics and tries to sprint to the finish first is usually the one who gets eliminated.
Play the Odds on Glass Stepping Stones
If you don't own Glass Tester, your strategy on this mini-game is simple: never go first. Wait for players ahead of you to test the panels. Every player who goes before you and survives (or falls) gives you free information. If you're forced to the front, pick one side consistently — left or right — rather than switching randomly, since some players believe the safe path follows patterns, though this hasn't been confirmed.
4. Push and Glass Tester Abilities
Shrimp Game offers two purchasable abilities that change how you play. Both cost Credits, which you earn through gameplay and code redemption.
Push
Push lets you shove a nearby player, knocking them off balance. In Red Light Green Light, a well-timed Push forces your target to move during a red light, instantly eliminating them. On Glass Stepping Stones, you can push players off the bridge entirely. In Sky Shrimp Game, a Push near a platform edge is almost always a guaranteed elimination.
The risk of Push is that it puts you close to other players. If someone else has Push and you're within range, you can get shoved right back. Use it when you have a clear angle and when the target isn't expecting it. Don't waste it on a player who's already likely to be eliminated by the game itself.
Glass Tester
Glass Tester highlights which panels are safe during Glass Stepping Stones. This single ability turns one of the game's most luck-dependent mini-games into a free pass. If you're spending Credits on anything, Glass Tester should be your first purchase.
The math is straightforward. Without Glass Tester, each untested panel is a coin flip. With 5-6 panels to cross, your odds of surviving purely by guessing are roughly 3-6%. With Glass Tester, your survival rate on this game jumps to nearly 100% (you can still be pushed off, but you won't step on a wrong panel).

Shrimp Game features 9 mini-games: Red Light Green Light, Dalgona, Lights Out, Hide and Seek, Jump Rope, Glass Stepping Stones, Mingle, Six-Legged Pentathlon, and Sky Shrimp Game. Each round randomly selects a sequence of these games, eliminating players until a winner remains.
The Push ability lets you shove other players during mini-games, potentially causing them to fail. For example, you can push someone during Red Light Green Light to make them move when the light is red, or push them off the glass bridge. It costs Credits and can be purchased from the in-game shop.
Glass Tester is a purchasable ability that highlights which glass panels are safe during the Glass Stepping Stones mini-game. Without it, you're guessing which panel to step on. It's one of the most valuable abilities in the game since Glass Stepping Stones has some of the highest elimination rates.
Move only when the light is green and stop immediately when it turns red. Release your movement keys a fraction of a second before the light changes to account for server lag. Stay toward the middle of the pack so you're not an easy target for players using Push. Short, controlled bursts of movement are safer than sprinting.
Shrimp Game by V_Champion_ and The Shrimp Game group has surpassed 1 billion visits on Roblox as of 2026, making it one of the most popular survival competition games on the platform.
Yes, Shrimp Game works on mobile devices through the Roblox app. The controls are touch-based, which can make precision mini-games like Dalgona and Red Light Green Light slightly harder. Many experienced players recommend using a PC or console for better control during high-stakes rounds.
Shrimp Game's appeal comes from its simplicity: anyone can understand the rules within seconds, but surviving a full round against 50+ other players demands sharp reflexes, smart positioning, and the discipline to stay patient when everyone around you is panicking. Whether you're grinding for Credits, testing your survival instincts, or just looking for a tense 15-minute experience between longer gaming sessions, Shrimp Game delivers.
