Learn to play Axolkin
Getting Started
Section titled “Getting Started”Axolkin is a free game played inside Discord. Catch, farm, cook, explore dungeons, breed, and compete — all without leaving Discord.
If you like Neopets, Tamagotchi, or Animal Crossing, you’ll feel right at home.
The fastest way to start: Open the Activity in any voice or text channel. A tutorial will walk you through your first catch and guide you from there.
You can also use slash commands like /catch — both the Activity and commands work together and share your progress.
Game Flow
Section titled “Game Flow”Progression
Section titled “Progression”You can catch as many Axols as you want — but to discover rarer species, you’ll need to unlock new catching pools. Progress through Jump League (slash commands) or purchase pool unlocks in the Activity shop. Bonding with your companion along the way unlocks powerful perks.

The Farm Loop
Section titled “The Farm Loop”Farming is steady income. Sell your harvest to Bel (NPC) or other players for coins, cook meals for temporary boosts, or feed berries to your companion to strengthen your bond.

Companion & Bond
Section titled “Companion & Bond”Set a companion after catching your first Axol. Your companion earns Bond XP (BXP) from playing together — pet, play, and feed berries from the Companion page in the Activity or via /companion set.
Feed berries to boost BXP — using your Axol’s preferred berry type gives 1.5x BXP. Grow berries on your farm, get them from drops, or buy from other players.

See Companion & Bond for full details.
Currency
Section titled “Currency”Coins
are the universal currency in Axolkin. Here are the best ways to earn them, especially early:
- Idle Ventures — passive coins while you’re away
- Watering — water other players’ farms for coin rewards
- Treasure Dive / Heist / Ruins — quick coins from minigames
- Farming — harvest and sell crops to Bel
- Feeding Frenzy — earn coins in real-time as you play
- Events — participate for bonus rewards
- Daily Prayer — use
/prayonce per day
Spend coins in the Shop Hub (Activity) or /shop on seeds, equipment, cosmetics, and upgrades.
