How to play Steal an Anime Pack

The public game description gives the loop in one breath: steal and open anime packs, merge packs, earn cash, train to get faster, upgrade your base, steal packs from other players, and keep earning while you are offline. The area order and the Speed numbers below come from one wiki, game.guide, read on 9 Nov 2026. I am not treating that wiki as a developer patch note.

Steal

Each area is guarded by one of its own units. You pick up a pack and run it back to your plot. The guard chases you. Punch reach on the wiki runs from 25 studs in Sakura's Domain to 660 studs in the last area. Speed helps you outrun the guard and get home. There is no public map of which way the areas face, so I am not drawing one.

Open packs

A pack sits on your plot and grows for its grow time, from 10 seconds up to 10 hours depending on the pack. Opening it rolls every unit in that area. The character printed on the card is only more likely, not the only pull. At night, for 15 seconds out of every 5 minutes, packs grow 20 times faster. A full pack list is on all packs.

Merge

Two of the same pack can go into the Merge Machine and come out as one heavier pack, which hatches a heavier unit. Path Packs are the exception the wiki calls out as un-mergeable. The multipliers are on the merge page.

Speed

The wiki's recommended Speed for the eleven areas, in order: 900, 10k, 40k, 170k, 700k, 2.5M, 18M, 700M, 2.5B, 10B, 75B. Cash from units goes into a treadmill (37 levels on that wiki), auras, coaches and weapons. Rebirth first asks for 2M Speed, then multiplies that requirement by 7 each time, sets Speed back to 0, and adds 0.5 to a money multiplier.

Base upgrades

The game description includes base upgrades in the core loop. The game.guide shop page lists 14 base levels, each adding one unit slot, with cash prices from $220 to $20Qi. More slots let you keep income-producing units while continuing to open packs.

Offline earnings

The game description says your units make money while you are offline. That is the built-in idle path. A beginner video also shows an auto-train control on the treadmill. I am not adding a cash-per-second formula, because no public page gives one.

Servers

The public game record says 5 players per server. That leaves at most four other plots you can steal from. If a server is quiet, you are mostly farming the areas, not other people. Codes are a short boost on top of this loop, not a replacement for it. Which pack to chase first is on best packs.
