What You Need to Know to Earn in Labrador Adventures!
This guide will walk you through the real journey of a player in the Telegram game Labrador Adventures — from first steps to consistent profits. You’ll get to know the interface, resources, farming strategies, and useful tips to help you get into the green faster.
1. First Steps in Labrador Adventures
- Launching the Game: [link]
- Settings: Set your Labrador’s name, choose the interface language, and optionally hide your nickname/avatar from the leaderboard.
- Quests: Complete simple tasks to earn bones and gold.
- Happy Hour: A random daily event (1 hour) when gold appears on the screen instead of bones.
2. Getting Started: Buying a Shovel
Your first goal is to choose an entry strategy. Here are a few viable options, depending on your budget and vision:
- Wooden shovel focused on 6+ Luck with 2–3 Luck rune slots.
Ideal if you’re starting with just one shovel — it gives a better chance of finding valuable runes during expeditions, which you can sell and save up for more shovels. - Wooden shovel focused on 6+ Speed with 2–3 Speed rune slots.
Good luck stats are still important, since runes are a key income source. Speed helps you earn more $LABR tokens. This is a solid choice if you plan to buy two more shovels — with 3 total, you unlock a helper and double your farming efficiency. - Mix of Speed and Luck wooden shovels, swapping in your Luck shovel during expeditions. Get a floor-priced third shovel to unlock the helper bonus.
- Steel shovel with 13+ Speed and 2–4 rune slots.
A pricier option, best paired with a good Luck stat and a cheap wooden shovel to unlock your helper.
Tip: Set your dog to dig overnight and use a jar (+2 cycles). For just 30 gold, you can level up faster. Especially effective when two extra cycles offset the jar cost — mainly feasible with steel shovels and upgraded characters.
3. Resources and Character Upgrades
- Gold — used for upgrades, buying shovels and jars, crafting.
- Bones — used for skill upgrades, mine repairs, expeditions.
- EXP — used to level up Speed / Luck / Endurance branches.
Personally, I’ve focused on Speed leveling and spent gold to reach level 4, while my bones are almost enough to hit level 15.
4. Helpers and Farming Optimization
Shovels provide points:
- Wooden = 1 point
- Steel = 2 points
- etc.
The more points you have, the more helpers you unlock — and they significantly boost your $LABR farming.
5. The LABR Mine and Token Farming
Entry: Adventures → LABR Mine (non-basic shovel required)
Mechanics:
Dig at least 15 minutes per day. Choose to dig (earn tokens) or repair the mine (earn achievement points that increase future farming).
Durability:
If mine durability hits 0%, it collapses — players inside lose 50% income, and the repair takes 6–12 hours (done by players using bones).
Tip: Keep the mine in good condition — don’t be the one it collapses on!
6. Expeditions and Runes
Attempts: 2 every 12 hours, cost 10 bones.
Always go on cooldown — expeditions are your main source of gold through rune sales.
Expedition Types:
- Lake – Tier I runes
- Forest – Tier I–II
- Mountains – Tier I–III
Intuition:
The higher it is, the better your expedition success chance. Start with Lake; move to Forest once you hit ~10% Intuition.
Example: With a steel shovel and 11 Luck, I got 4 runes in a week worth ~7,000 gold total.
7. Crafting Shovels and Runes
Shovels:
You can fuse two shovels of the same quality. Each shovel has 3 craft uses. Fewer remaining crafts = higher cost.
Shovel stat quality doesn’t depend on the inputs — only the rune slot count does. More rune slots = higher chance of getting more in the result.
Runes:
Craft Tier I–III runes of three types: Speed, Endurance, Luck.
8. Trading and Arbitrage
Black Market (coming soon):
The official platform for buying/selling shovels, runes, and tokens — for gold or real money.
Flipping:
Buy low-quality items, upgrade them, and sell at a profit.
Tip: Track price trends and craft-opening stats to make profitable trades.
9. Referral System and Achievements
Referrals:
Earn bones and a percentage of referred players’ gold spending.
Achievements:
Maintain activity (digging, expeditions, mining) to earn bonuses and stat boosts — leading to better farming.
LABR Staking:
Gives a digging speed boost — though early on, upgrading skills is a better investment.
10. Leaderboard and Seasonal Bonuses
At the end of the season, tokens are distributed based on leaderboard position.
Important: Be active on the last day — inactive players aren’t counted.
Example from last season:
I joined near the end, stayed in early leaderboard stages, and quickly got 20,000 $LABR in cashback.
11. Final Thoughts and Tips for Labrador Adventures
Main income sources: Mine, expeditions, and rune sales.
Start priorities: Choose a shovel based on your budget. Focus on upgrading either Speed or Intuition.
Don’t rush into spending real money. First, study the market, plan your farming and upgrade strategy — then invest to scale your returns. Monitor token prices and prepare for the Black Market launch to maximize profit.
