Plants vs Brainrots has a new limited-time event, and this one is all about farming two special currencies to spend in an event shop. Defeat Brainrots, smash roots, and exchange what you earn for exclusive rewards. This guide covers everything you need to know to get the most out of the Plants vs Brainrots Hacked Event.

What is the Hacked Event in Plants vs Brainrots

The Hacked Event is a limited-time event accessible through the Central Island. The event POI takes the form of a giant blue computer where you'll spot a keyboard, mouse, and monitor, along with a floating blue plug that signals a disconnection. On the far left of the area sits the Hacking Panel, which is the main interface you'll interact with throughout the event.

Plants vs Brainrots Hacked Event POI

Two types of special enemies periodically appear during the event, each tied to one of the two event currencies:

  • Anonini La Palini Spawns — Every few minutes, an Anonini La Palini Brainrot will appear somewhere on the map. Taking it down rewards you with Hacked Shards, one of the two currencies used in the event shop. Your plants will do the work for you.
  • Hacked Roots Spawns — At regular intervals, Hacked Roots will also pop up around your garden. Hit them with a bat to destroy them and collect Hacked Roots currency.

Both currencies are needed to purchase most rewards, so you'll want to stay on top of both activities throughout the event.

All Plants vs Brainrots Hacked Event Rewards

All rewards are available through the event shop at the Hacking Panel on the Central Island. Each item requires a specific amount of both Hacked Shards and Hacked Roots, and both costs must be met to complete a purchase.

The Hackland Biome is worth prioritizing if you plan on farming for a while. Once unlocked, it doubles your currency generation, giving you 2x Hacked Shards and Hacked Roots from all activities.

How to Complete the Hacked Event

Progress in this event comes down to consistently farming both currencies and spending them at the shop. Here's how to approach it:

  1. Head to the Central Island and locate the large blue computer to find the event POI. Interact with the Hacking Panel on the far left to access the event shop.
  2. Keep an eye out for Anonini La Palini Brainrots spawning around the map every few minutes. Defeat them to collect Hacked Shards.
  3. Watch for Hacked Roots appearing near your base at regular intervals. Pull out a bat and destroy them to earn Hacked Roots currency.
  4. Return to the Hacking Panel and spend your accumulated currencies on the rewards you want. Work toward the Hackland Biome early if possible, since the 2x currency boost will speed up the rest of your farming significantly.

Keep rotating between hunting Brainrots and clearing roots to build up both currencies steadily. That covers everything you need to know about the Hacked Event. Good luck!
