Mutations Guide

Mutations increase the amount of money your brainrots generate. Each mutation has its own multiplier that stacks with other bonuses. This guide covers all available mutations and strategies for maximizing their potential.

Key Mutation Facts

  • Primary and secondary mutations stack multiplicatively
  • Mutations also stack with other bonuses (levels, rebirths, etc.)
  • Some mutations are only available during special events
  • Higher rarity mutations provide bigger multipliers but are harder to obtain
  • You can only have one primary and one secondary mutation active at a time

Example Calculations

Primary Mutation Secondary Mutation Total Multiplier With 5x Luck
Gold (×1.25) Bloodrot (×2) ×2.5 ×12.5
Diamond (×1.5) Tacos (×3) ×4.5 ×22.5
Rainbow (×10) Nyancat (×6) ×60 ×300

Best Mutation Strategies

  • Early Game: Focus on getting any mutation - even Gold + Bloodrot gives ×2.5
  • Mid Game: Aim for Diamond + Tacos for ×4.5 or Candy + Disco for ×16
  • Late Game: Save for Rainbow + Nyancat/Firework for the maximum ×60
  • Events: Always participate in events for limited-time mutations
  • Rebirths: Higher rebirth levels multiply your mutation bonuses further

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get mutations?

Mutations can be obtained through mutation rolls (using in-game currency), special events, or as rare drops from certain activities. Primary mutations are more common than secondary ones.

Can I have multiple mutations active?

You can have one primary and one secondary mutation active at the same time. They will stack multiplicatively for the total bonus.

Do mutations work with rebirth bonuses?

Yes! Mutations multiply your base earnings first, then rebirth bonuses and other multipliers are applied. This makes them extremely powerful in late game.

Are event mutations ever available outside events?

Some event mutations may appear in special mutation rolls after their event ends, but they're much rarer. It's best to get them during their events.

What's the best mutation for early game?

Any mutation helps, but Gold + Bloodrot is a good early combination that's relatively easy to obtain and provides ×2.5 multiplier.

How do I know which mutation is active?

Active mutations are shown in your character's info panel. You can also see their effects in the earnings breakdown in the calculator.
