Sell Ores Beginner Guide: How to Roll, Drill, Sell, and Upgrade

Sell Ores is an automated ore operation, not a conventional pickaxe game. Roll an ore, place it in an open tunnel, let a drone process it into a box, then take the box to the Sell Ores station for cash. If you know a drone-focused beginner route, the automation idea may feel familiar, but Sell Ores has its own roll, tunnel, and crate steps. For code help, use Sell Ores codes.

Roll an ore, place it in a tunnel, and sell the crate

Your first goal is one complete ore-to-cash cycle.

1. Find Roll Ores. Walk to the Roll Ores pedestal or lever at your base.
2. Roll an ore. Use the roll action, or buy an ore if that option is shown.
3. Place the ore. Put it in an empty tunnel, compartment, or available slot. An ore in your hands does not start the base's automated work.
4. Let the drone process it. The drilling drone or machine works on the placed ore until it produces a box or crate.
5. Collect the output. Pick up the finished box or crate when it appears.
6. Sell it. Take the output to the Sell Ores station or NPC and hand it in for cash.

Keep available slots productive while you move around the base. If cash is tight, complete the sale before rolling again, or you may have an ore waiting in your hands while a tunnel sits empty.

Spend early cash on the part of the loop that is waiting

Use the upgrade board to fix the slowest part of your current cycle. If the next ore is slow to appear, look for ore regeneration or roll availability. If the drone takes too long, choose drill speed.

If ores are ready but your tunnels are full, more usable slots or base expansion helps you keep production running. Buy capacity when a full base is stopping you from placing the next ore, not simply because the button is available.

Luck is a later choice when the basic loop is already moving and you want rarer rolls. Chasing luck while every drill is waiting leaves the real delay untouched. Sell early boxes and put the cash into the system that is holding up your next cycle.

The game also advertises offline base earnings. Before logging out, check three things:

1. Ores are placed. Fill the usable slots you want running.
2. Drones are active. The automated process should be working.
3. Ready crates are sold. Turn finished output into cash before you leave.

Gear and pet systems can wait until the roll-to-cash loop no longer needs your attention.
