List of Research Crates Type[]

Crate Name Crate Info Crate Appearance Spawning Method Possible Contents
Basic Crate New

They also have a high chance to yield Regular Boxes and a small chance to yield an Unreal Box and Lucky Clover. With the Premium Mining game pass, all Golden Crates will have a Lucky Clover, and with the Super Snowflake artifact, this crate will increase your walk speed by 2 with no limit.

Diamond Crate
Diamond crates are very valuable research crates but are very rare. If this crate spawns in the map, the message "A Diamond Crate has appeared!" will appear on chat. They give 5k RP. You are almost guaranteed a mystery box (from Regular Boxes to even a Red-Banded Box) and an unlikely chance of a Lucky Clover. Despawns after 600 seconds according to the source code as of October 14, 2016. During the St. Patrick's Day Weekend, these could provide 0-2 Golden Clovers. Large, light blue crate. Gives off a very large light radius. Spawns randomly around the map with a server announcement in chat, or opening a VIP+ Gift.
Shadow Crate
Shadow Crate
A shadow crate near an offscreen Giant Torch. The Shadow Crates spawn at night. Around about as common as Golden Crates but they are much smaller, half-transparent, and black which makes them hard to see at night. They usually grant about 500 RP and also have a chance to get mystery boxes and/or a Lucky Clover. They disappear as soon as the sun rises. Having Gambler's Dice will make this crate drop more often. Having the Void Cube will make them have better content and at some time during the night, 2 to 5 Shadow crates spawn directly on your base. Black, translucent crate with no light, making it hard to spot at night time. Despawns once dawn breaks. Spawns randomly around the map only at night.
New crate 2
Unobtainium Crystal Crate

For some reason, crate storms don't drop shadow crates at night. On 3/24/17, Crate Storms were broken, and buying them would cause nothing to happen. Quickly after, berezaa fixed this and refunded anybody who could prove they bought the Crate Storm during the bug. N/A Spook McDooks

Trivia[]

  • After Part II of the 2015 Winter Update, there was a server-wide announcement for a "Rainbow Crate" dropping. However, it was a prank set up by Berezaa and it was met with severe backlash. This announcement also appeared in the 2020 Halloween Event.
  • Gift Crates used to spawn on bases, sparkling as if they were opened. You can get rid of these crates by launching them with cannons.
    • This was later fixed.
  • Gift Crates occasionally give half a research point along with the usual amount.
  • Sometimes the crates can disappear without notice, usually within 1-3 minutes, sometimes even dropping instantly.
  • The despawn source code for the crates was acquired while Berezaa was streaming when he showed it on stream seen here.
  • Daily login streaks were added in The Life Saving Update, giving Mystery Boxes as follows; 3 Days = Unreal Box, 5 Days = Inferno Box, 7 Days = Spectral Box. (note that missing one day will not end the streak)
  • During the Halloween Event 2019, every crate was given a pumpkin shape to replace its normal box shape (excluding the candy crate).
  • After the Halloween Event 2019, all crates were given a new design.
  • Before the crate redesign, crates were giant squares with no features other than the decal on the front.
  • After Part I of the Christmas Update 2019, all crates are reworked to have a better RNG and perform better.
  • Currently, all crates are non-collidable to ores in public servers to avoid clogging setups, but players can still collide with them.
    • This is likely due to the fact that crates occasionally land on conveyors/upgraders, causing them to get moved around.
  • Using the Lucky Infuser, you will always get a lucky clover from any crate.
