Event Mechanics

The Radioactive Mutation Event irradiates the map with green glows, nuclear reactors, hazard symbols, and neon lighting. Brainrots on the conveyor gain the Radioactive Mutation (8.5x earnings, green neon design) during active phases. The hourly Fishing Event floods the lobby into a sea; equip rods (Frozen 2x luck 2.5M, Fiery 3x luck 75M, Radioactive 4x luck 1B) to cast lines, triggering a bar-filling minigame to catch Aquatic Brainrots. There are 25 aquatic brainrots in the complete collection available through fishing, including previously retired aquatic brainrots that are worth trying to obtain. The Brainrot Trader NPC offers 3 exclusive brainrots (1 Mythic + 2 Secrets) available through exchanges, restocking every 2 hours. The Radioactive Spin Wheel spins periodically for currency, gears, boosters, and the Radioactive Secret Block. Completing the Radioactive Index unlocks base color customizations. Admin Abuse launches at 3:00 PM EST with glowing hazards, bonus spawns, and mutation drops.
