The Hunt Roblox 20 Final Puzzle Preparation Guide

The Hunt Roblox 20 Final Puzzle is the final part of the event, and simply joining the game when the countdown reaches zero is not enough. There are several things you should prepare beforehand, especially if you want to access the puzzle as soon as possible.

Your badges, Secret Challenge leaderboard position, and the Admin Abuse bonus can all matter before the finale begins. The final section of the Hunt 20 hub is also worth checking out ahead of time so you are not trying to learn the area while everyone else is searching for the puzzle.

When Does The Hunt Roblox 20 Final Puzzle Start?

The Hunt Roblox 20 Final Puzzle is scheduled to open on Sunday, September 27, 2026, at 8:00 AM PT. The puzzle window is expected to remain open for one hour, giving players until 9:00 AM PT to take part.

Here are the start and end times for several major time zones:

• PT: Sunday, September 27 — 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM
• ET: Sunday, September 27 — 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM
• CET: Sunday, September 27 — 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM
• IST: Sunday, September 27 — 8:30 PM to 9:30 PM
• JST: Monday, September 28 — 12:00 AM to 1:00 AM
• AEST: Monday, September 28 — 1:00 AM to 2:00 AM

If you are trying to solve the final puzzle during its opening window, it is better to enter the Hunt 20 hub a little early rather than waiting until the exact starting time.

1. Collect All 40 Hunt 20 Badges

The most important preparation is making sure you have all 40 badges required for the final puzzle. These are split into 20 regular badges and 20 secret badges.

The regular badges come from completing the standard Hunt 20 quests across the event’s games. If you have been completing the main challenges throughout the event, you may already have most or all of these badges.

The secret badges are different because they come from hidden quests found inside the Hunt 20 games. After completing these secret challenges, you need to claim the corresponding rewards from the podiums for each year inside the 2026 Lobby Hub.

Before the final puzzle begins, check your badge collection and make sure there are no missing badges. A player who only completed the regular Hunt quests can still be missing the 20 secret badges, so do not assume your collection is complete.

2. Check the Secret Challenge Leaderboard

The Secret Challenge leaderboard is another important part of the final puzzle preparation. Players who reach the Top 20 on this leaderboard can receive early access to the final puzzle.

This means leaderboard position can potentially give certain players a chance to enter the finale before the wider player base. If you are already close to the Top 20, completing additional secret challenges may be worth checking before the event starts.

There was also an earlier plan involving the Admin Abuse event for early access. However, that method was removed from the hub, while the Secret Challenge leaderboard became the listed route for early access.

Because of this change, players looking for early access should pay attention to the Secret Challenge leaderboard rather than relying on the previous Admin Abuse requirement.

3. Play the Admin Abuse Event

Admin Abuse is no longer the confirmed method for getting early access, but it is still worth completing because the Hunt 20 hub mentions a puzzle bonus connected to the event.

The Admin Abuse event takes place in +1 Keyboard Escape. Completing it gives players a small bonus that can be used for the final puzzle.

The exact effect of this bonus may not be immediately clear, but there is little reason to skip it if you have enough time before the finale. Since the event is connected directly to the final puzzle preparation, completing it can give you another advantage when the puzzle becomes available.

You should therefore treat Admin Abuse as a bonus preparation step rather than an early-access requirement.

4. Explore the Final Hunt 20 Hub Area

Another useful thing to do before the puzzle starts is explore the final section of the Hunt 20 hub. The area contains several games and locations that become part of the finale setup.

Some of the games displayed in this section include:

• 100 Days at Sea
• Reclone
• Anime Expeditions
• Clean All the Leaves
• Steal an Egg
• Other Hunt 20 experiences

The games are positioned around the hub in a galaxy-themed area, so taking a few minutes to look around can help you understand where everything is located.

This can be useful once the final puzzle goes live. Instead of spending the opening minutes figuring out where to go, you will already have an idea of the hub’s layout and where the different games are positioned.

What Should You Do Before the Final Puzzle?

If you want to be fully prepared for the Hunt Roblox 20 finale, go through this checklist before the event begins:

• Collect all 20 regular Hunt 20 badges.
• Find and complete the secret quests for the 20 secret badges.
• Claim the secret badge rewards from the podiums in the 2026 Lobby Hub.
• Check your Secret Challenge leaderboard position.
• Try to reach the Top 20 if you are competing for early access.
• Complete the Admin Abuse event in +1 Keyboard Escape for the puzzle bonus.
• Explore the final section of the Hunt 20 hub.
• Learn where the featured games are located.
• Enter the hub before the final puzzle window begins.
• Keep the final puzzle opening time in mind for your time zone.

The Hunt Roblox 20 Final Puzzle is the last major step of the event, so preparation can save you a lot of time once it goes live. The biggest thing to check is your badge collection, especially the 20 secret badges that are easy to miss if you only completed the normal Hunt quests.

The Secret Challenge leaderboard is also important for players aiming for early access, while the Admin Abuse event provides a separate puzzle bonus. Once those tasks are done, spend a few minutes exploring the final hub area so you know where everything is before the finale begins.
