Alien Coins are one of the main currencies used for buying Alien Chests in Roblox Search For The Needle. These chests contain special Alien-themed skins for different items and equipment, including useful gear such as the Dynamite and Drone. There are several ways to collect Alien Coins, and you do not need to spend Robux if you are willing to play through the available maps. Here are all three methods you can use to build up your Alien Coin supply.
1. Complete the Farmhouse and Basement Maps
The main free-to-play method for getting Alien Coins is simply completing maps. Each time you successfully finish a map, you receive rewards that can include Alien Coins. However, the amount you earn depends on several factors, so not every run gives the same amount.
The difficulty level is one of the biggest factors. Higher difficulties provide better rewards, while your clear time can also affect how many Alien Coins you receive. The map itself matters too, with the Basement generally being more rewarding than the easier Farmhouse map.
For the best Alien Coin farming setup, focus on the following:
- Play the Basement Map.
- Select Hard difficulty.
- Try to finish the map as quickly as possible.
- Play with friends or multiple players to make clears easier.
- Repeat successful runs to build up your Alien Coins.
The Basement on Hard is currently the better choice for players who want to farm Alien Coins without spending Robux.
2. Redeem the Search For The Needle Code
Another free method is redeeming active codes. The developers added a code redemption system with the Chapter 2 update, allowing players to claim free rewards without having to complete additional runs.
One useful code for Alien Coins is:
ALIEN— 200 Alien Coins
The 200 Alien Coins from this code are enough to help you purchase two Alien Chests, giving you a quick way to start collecting the Alien-themed rewards.
If the code is still active on your account, make sure to redeem it as soon as possible. Roblox codes can sometimes expire after an update or limited period.
3. Buy Alien Chests With Robux
Players who do not want to spend time farming maps can also use Robux to get Alien Chests. This is the fastest option, although it requires spending the game’s premium currency.
To purchase them, head over to the Alien Chest area in the Search For The Needle lobby. Interact with the chest to open the purchase menu, where you can choose how many chests you want to buy.
You can purchase up to 10 Alien Chests at once for 229 Robux. This option is useful if you want to collect the Alien skins quickly instead of repeatedly completing maps for Alien Coins.
Which Is the Best Way to Farm Alien Coins?
For free-to-play players, completing the Basement Map on Hard difficulty is the best option. Higher difficulty rewards more Alien Coins, while faster clears help you maximize what you receive from each run.
The code ALIEN is also worth using because it gives 200 free Alien Coins with almost no effort. After claiming the code, you can continue farming the Basement to save enough for more Alien Chests. Robux is the quickest alternative if you do not want to grind. Once you have enough Alien Chests, you can start unlocking the various Alien skins and equipment rewards, including items such as the Dynamite, Drone, and UFO.
