The Steal a Brainrot CURSED MUTATION event changes the game every hour with a chance to get rare, powerful Brainrots that multiply your income. It’s a short but intense event where the whole map looks different, and special Brainrots with a cursed aura appear. Knowing when and how to catch these cursed Brainrots can give you a big advantage.
Here’s a quick answer to get you started:
- The event runs every hour for about 15 minutes.
- During this time, Brainrots on the conveyor belt can spawn with the Cursed Mutation.
- You can also get cursed Brainrots by spinning the Cursed Spin Wheel, stealing from other players, or opening Cursed Secret Lucky Blocks.
When and how the cursed mutation event works
The event started on January 3, 2026, at 12:00 PM PT and repeats every hour in 15-minute bursts. When it’s live, the entire map changes colors to red and black, strange symbols appear, and a giant monster head shows up near the red conveyor belt. These visual changes tell you the event is active and it’s time to hunt for cursed Brainrots.
During these event windows, some Brainrots on the conveyor belt spawn with the Cursed Mutation. They glow with a dark red and black aura and have corrupted textures, making them easy to spot. But watch out : other players want them too, so you’ll need to be quick.
How to get cursed Brainrots besides the conveyor belt
If you miss the conveyor belt spawns, don’t worry. There are other ways to get cursed Brainrots:
- Cursed Spin Wheel: Spin this special wheel during the event for a chance to win cursed Brainrots, cursed-themed gear, and Cursed Secret Lucky Blocks. It’s based on luck, so you might need several spins.
- Stealing from other players: Many players try to collect cursed Brainrots, making their bases prime targets. Sneak in during the event, hold the E key to steal, and use traps to escape. Focus on players who just returned from the conveyor belt in the first 5-7 minutes.
- Cursed Secret Lucky Blocks: These come from the spin wheel and give another chance to get cursed mutations.
Collecting at least 75% cursed Brainrots unlocks a special Cursed Mutation Base Skin, adding a cool cosmetic reward.
Why the cursed mutation is a big deal
The cursed mutation stands out visually with its dark, corrupted look. More importantly, it gives a 9x income multiplier, second only to the Rainbow mutation. This makes cursed Brainrots very valuable for earning more and trading with other players.
Tips to get the most out of the cursed mutation event
Plan your time around the event’s hourly schedule and be ready near the conveyor belt when it starts. Watch for the map’s red-black color change and the monster head to know when it’s live. Use the Cursed Spin Wheel if you miss spawns but remember it’s random. Stealing can be risky but is often the fastest way to get cursed Brainrots if you’re good at sneaking and escaping.
