The Jurassic Blocky early game begins with Gallimimus — a free Tier 1 runner that feels underpowered but excels at Amber collection. Your goal in the first 30 minutes is earning enough DinoCoins for Velociraptor while learning map layout and basic controls on Roblox.
First Steps
- Spawn in and open settings to reduce volume — audio cues help detect approaching predators.
- Press H (PC) to practice movement without UI clutter.
- Head to the Canyon for your first Amber spawns (50 DinoCoins each).
- Avoid the Central Lake — it attracts high-tier carnivores.
First Purchase: Velociraptor (30 DinoCoins)
Velociraptor is the optimal first upgrade — fast enough to escape threats, strong enough for hit-and-run kills on weak herbivores. Its claw attacks chew through low-HP targets efficiently. See our DinoCoins farming guide for detailed income strategies.
Amber Farming Route
Follow the route documented in our Amber farming guide: Canyon → Riverbed → server hop → repeat. Kill Goats (10 DinoCoins) between Amber runs for supplemental income. Use the calculator to track progress toward your next purchase.
Transition to Mid Game
Once you reach 150+ DinoCoins, read our mid game guide for the Allosaurus → Spinosaurus progression path.
