Getting Started in Mall Game

Lobby to blackout - the checklist new players skip, then regret.

Last updated:

Mall Game looks like a cozy holiday mall for about eight minutes. Then the lights die and the person who drove you there wants you dead. This page is the first-hour checklist so you do not spend those eight minutes sprinting in circles. Pair it with Spielanleitung for binds and the Tape 1 walkthrough when Act 2 starts.

You are on Roblox, not Steam. Search mall game (or the mall game) by NEN SHAKER STUDIOS, place ID 99403308813547. Ignore Mall Tycoon, Mall Cop Simulator, and AEON MALL clones. The live title may read [Revamp] mall game. That is the same experience after the 2026 rebuild.

Before you press Play

  1. Redeem codes in the lobby. Open Codes and follow how to redeem. Tix and tickets will not save Act 1 - they save Act 2.
  2. Decide solo or friends. Servers allow up to 50, but a two or three player group is the sweet spot. One person can watch patrols while another grabs items.
  3. Invite for a free revive. The current Roblox description grants a revive when you invite a friend in-game. Do this before you start Tape 1.
  4. Pick difficulty last. Normal first. Schwerer Modus is faster Mother plus an extra Filip objective. It is not a cosmetics toggle.

Act 1 - treat it as a map class

You spawn on a snowy trip to restock supplies. Mother talks to Fraudisha. You get bored and wander. That is scripted. Use the time:

  • Learn store names: BCPenney, BloxStop, food court, arcade, bathrooms, lounge.
  • Talk to NPCs. Dialogue flags later quest givers (Gavin, Filip, staff).
  • Play the obby / arcade when the story pushes you there. Finishing it is the trigger that knocks you out and starts the blackout.
  • Do not sprint-train the whole mall for no reason. You are memorizing sightlines you will need when the lights are gone.

There is no Mother in Act 1. If you are waiting for a jumpscare, you are early. The Karte page names every wing so Act 2 directions make sense.

Act 2 - first ten minutes

Filip wakes you, gives a flashlight, and explains that Mother changed after you went missing. He hands vent keys toward BCPenney and the food court. Your job is not to fight her. Your job is to run errands for people hiding in saferooms while she patrols.

First loop, in order:

  1. Reach the BCPenney saferoom and talk to Gavin.
  2. Fetch his glizzy (hot dog). Location depends on difficulty - see Gegenstände.
  3. Return it. He thinks he is giving you BloxStop vent access. The keys fail; follow the blood trail instead.
  4. Find David (and Shai) in the vents. Retrieve David’s arm with the taser while Mother is stunned.
  5. Continue the chain on the Komplettlösung and the quest order tool.

If you die, spend a revive ticket. If you are out, you restart the blackout from the last checkpoint the revamp currently honors - do not assume a 2025 YouTube timestamp still matches.

Survival habits to install on run one

  • Flashlight off when you hear her. Light is a beacon.
  • Crouch near patrol paths. Sprint only in confirmed empty halls.
  • Bathrooms and lockers are your S-tier hides. The hiding-spot tier list ranks them.
  • Arcade / side activities are historically safe from the monster. If you need to breathe, go there.
  • Hunger is real. Pizza at the cafeteria and the glizzy (before you turn it in) refill you. Starving during a taser attempt is how people panic-sprint.

Read how to survive Mother after your first death. The freeze prompt (do not move) is easy to miss on mobile.

What this wiki will not do

We will not pretend the alpha revamp is frozen. Lotus is teased. Layouts shift. If a vent is one-way in your build, believe your eyes, then check Updates. For unofficial client tools, see Skripte and understand the ban risk before you inject anything.

When Act 1 feels done, open the Komplettlösung and keep this checklist in your head: codes, invite, Normal difficulty, map names, flashlight discipline.
