Roblox ABOVE beginner guide

ABOVE Roblox starts you on a small sky island. Finish the tutorial, put the starter tools on the hotbar, and water a plot before you buy a harvester. This is the first-hour path, not a coin-per-hour sheet.

PC controls from the game listing

The public description is the only full key list I trust. Left mouse breaks, places, chops, mines, or attacks. Keys 1 through 9 pick a hotbar slot, and pressing the same key puts it away. E opens the backpack. R rotates. F picks up. G shows nearby prompts. Q drops. Shift sprints. Left control locks. L opens the island-visit menu. F1 hides the UI.

The listing publishes PC controls only. The cited sources do not establish ABOVE-specific mobile availability or a touch-control layout.

A sensible first session

Crops want water beside the soil. Tilled dirt turns a darker brown when it is watered. A water bucket moves water, and rain refills a source. Sell wheat and candy corn to the merchant for the first coins, then use the seed dealer. Berry bushes keep fruiting after you pick them, so they are the low-effort plot.

Achievements are described as roughly 5,000 coins. Beating 25 creatures raises max health in the beginner videos. The workbench makes tools, stone blocks, chests, and a pollinator. The Machinist sells harvesters once you can pay. The Landman expands the island for 10,000 coins and also sells a block-limit option. Flowers breed when a pollinator sits between two of the same type. Shiny finds go to the collector, and cooked food goes to the chef.

Friends: the description says you can visit islands and sign a guestbook. Servers hold 8 people. Press L for that menu. A second island is a game pass topic, covered on the private-server page, and it is not the same as paying the Landman to grow this island.
