Build a Base and Steal runs on a simple loop. You collect pets that generate cash, wall them off inside a base, and break into other players’ bases to take their pets. Everything you need to win starts at your own home base, where you roll for pets and blocks, then reinvest the money to build up your defenses and unlock better tools.
Quick answer: Roll for pets for free at the Egg Mystery platform, keep your high-earning pets protected behind a tall, double-layered base, and use the rebirth option to unlock new weapons and luck multipliers. Cash keeps generating even while you are offline.
How to get pets in Build a Base and Steal
Pets are the core of the game because they are what make you money. There are two ways to add them to your base. The first is rolling at your own base, and the second is stealing them from someone else.

The second route is stealing. Break into another player’s base with a weapon capable of destroying their blocks, grab a high-earning pet, and run before the owner catches you. This is the fastest way to pick up a super Epic pet without spending your own cash.

Earning money is tied directly to how many pets you own and how rare they are. The more pets sitting safely in your base, the more cash you generate. Because both rolling and stealing are free, the real cost is losing the pets you already have, so keeping your best earners protected is the priority.
Cash does not stop when you log off. Your pets keep producing income while you are away, so expect a lump sum waiting for you each time you return to the game.
Use rebirth to unlock multipliers and weapons
Rebirthing resets your progress, but it is how you grow long term. Each rebirth boosts your cash output and hands you new weapons and tools, which matters both for defending your base and for breaking into others.
Note: Alongside rebirthing, put spare cash into both Pet and Material luck multipliers. Better luck means stronger pet rolls and better blocks, which feed directly into a base that is harder to break.
How to build and defend your base
The further you progress, the more often you get raided, so a smart layout is what keeps your pets safe. Spend a solid chunk of currency rolling for blocks. The rare blocks are the toughest to destroy, but a well-planned layout with regular blocks can still hold off most thieves.
| Defense tactic | Why it works |
|---|---|
| Double-layered walls | Forces attackers to break through twice, slowing them down |
| Maze-like layout | Confuses invaders trying to reach the pets in the center |
| Tall construction | Stops enemies from simply jumping in to grab pets |
| Traps and weapons from the Shop | Booby-traps the base and punishes anyone who breaks in |
Want fewer interruptions while you build? Create a private server so other players cannot raid you while you set up your defenses.
The winning routine is a cycle. Roll for pets, protect them behind a tall and layered base, rebirth to unlock stronger tools and luck multipliers, then use those tools to raid rivals for their best earners. Stay on top of your base defenses and you can grow a high-income collection without watching it walk out the door.
