How Many Checkpoints Are in Drain the Lake Roblox?

If you are playing Drain the Lake on Roblox, you know it takes a lot of clicking and draining! You grab your bucket, scoop up water, and buy better gear. But when you look down into the big deep hole, you might wonder: How many checkpoints are in this game? And what free rewards do you get?

Good news! A big new update just came out, and it added a secret area. In this easy guide, we will show you all the checkpoints, the free Gems you can get, and how to find the new secret ending.

The Short Answer: How Many Checkpoints?

Right now, there are 6 main checkpoints that give you badges. But wait, there is more! In the newest update, if you go past Checkpoint 8 (where the phone is), you can find a secret Jungle Area at the very bottom.

Also, you do not need any special keys or Robux to unlock these checkpoints. You don't need to do hard quests. You just need to keep draining the water, upgrade your stamina, and go down, down, down!

Full List of Checkpoints and Rewards

Every time you reach a new checkpoint, you get a cool badge and free Gems. You can use these Gems to buy better buckets in the lobby!

Here is the list of every checkpoint from top to bottom:

Super Tip: Reaching these 6 places gives you 6 easy badges. If you also get the First Drop badge (drain 1 bucket) and the Plunge badge (just swim in the lake), you will easily get 10 badges. Then, join the game's official Roblox group to get the Legendary Ancient Bucket for FREE!

New Update: How to Find the Secret Ending at Checkpoint 8

The new update made the game a little harder. Some bucket prices are higher now, so you need to play a bit longer. But the coolest part is the new secret area! Here is how to get there:

Step 1: Do Not Touch the Phone!

When you drain enough water and get to Checkpoint 8, you will see a glowing phone on the ground. If you touch it, you get the old "Phone Ending". If you want the new secret ending, walk past the phone and do not touch it! Keep draining the water.

Step 2: Run Away from the Scary Fish!

After the phone area, you will see a sign with a new fish on it. The game says "something lurks deep." This fish is super fast and will chase you!

• Important: Make sure your skill tree is fully upgraded. If your speed and stamina are low, the fish will catch you and you will lose!

Step 3: Enter the Jungle Area

If you run past the fast fish and keep draining, you will fall into a huge, hidden Jungle Area.

At the end, there is a big door with question marks `???`. Don't look for a secret code! The numbers on the door are just a trick to confuse you. Just walk right up to the door, click the vote button with your team, and you will unlock the Hidden Treasure Ending!

What to Buy with Your Gems?

After you get all those free Gems from the checkpoints, go to the Bucket Stand in the lobby. Buying a better bucket makes your job much faster!

• Plastic Bucket (Common) - 200 Gems
• Metal Bucket (Uncommon) - 500 Gems
• Magnet Bucket (Rare) - 1.2K Gems
• Golden Bucket (Legendary) - 2K Gems

Get your best bucket, watch out for the scary fish, and try to reach the secret jungle.
