Puffles in Depth
Levels, care, digging tiers, rare finds and every leveling reward, with the numbers the game uses right now.
Every puffle grows
Look after your puffle and it earns experience (XP). XP raises its level, from 1 up to 100. Higher levels unlock digging, better treasure and a reward at many levels on the way. A puffle earns at most 600 XP a day, so a little care every day goes further than one long session.
Three big moments
- Level 5
Starts digging
Your puffle digs up coins on walks.
- Level 8
Finds treasure
Older clothing, furniture and the rare hard hats can turn up.
- Level 10
Stays for good
Your puffle never runs away, however long you are gone.
Care at home
A puffle gets hungry slowly: a full puffle is out of food after 30 days without a meal, even while you are away. It needs a sleep about every 30 days. It gets a little less clean while it wanders around your igloo. Food, a cookie, gum or a bath fills its tummy again. A puffle that runs out of food may run away, but never while you are walking it.
Each kind of care can be repeated after a short rest. The rest stays with the puffle, so logging out does not skip it.

Digging, tier by tier
Walk your puffle around the island and it digs by itself, about once every 2 minutes while you keep moving. About one dig in 5 finds nothing. The rest find coins or treasure, and the higher the level, the better the finds.

Never the same find twice
- No repeats. A puffle never digs up an item you already have, or one any of your puffles found before. Another item of the same tier comes instead.
- Got them all? When you own every item of a tier, that dig pays 60 coins for an older item or 200 coins for a rare one.
- A day's digging. All your puffles together: up to 40 digs, 800 coins, 3 older items and 1 rare find a day.
- Never above 650 coins in one dig, whatever the puffle.
Leveling rewards
