Sell Ores Floors & Unlocks Guide
The order to clear every Floor and what to stockpile before each unlock.
Sell Ores has seven Floors, each one unlocking a new ore tier, a new Drone slot or a new fusion station. This guide covers the order to clear them and the Cash buffer you need before each transition. If you are new to the game, finish the tutorial and clear Floor 1 first, then return to this page.
The Floor unlock costs and the rewards below reflect the August 2026 patch. The Ore Drillers occasionally rebalance the costs during major updates — the Updates Hub tracks every change.
Floor 1 — Common Ores
- Unlock cost: Free (starter).
- What it adds: Common Ores (Copper, Stone, Coal).
- Recommended buffer: None — you start here.
- Time to clear: 30–45 minutes.
Floor 1 is the tutorial Floor. Sell every Common Ore on sight and pump Cash into Drill Level until you hit Level 3.
Floor 2 — Rare Ores
- Unlock cost: 10,000 Cash.
- What it adds: Rare Ores (Iron, Amber, Topaz).
- Recommended buffer: 15,000 Cash (5K for the first rolls).
- Time to clear: 2–3 days.
Floor 2 is the longest Floor in the game because Rare rolls are slow. Use the Money Making guide to optimise the Rare loop.
Floor 3 — Epic Ores + Drone 1
- Unlock cost: 25,000 Cash.
- What it adds: Epic Ores (Solar Coal, Magmaite, Aurora Quartz) and the first Drone slot.
- Recommended buffer: 30,000 Cash (5K for the first Epic rolls).
- Time to clear: 3–5 days.
Drone 1 automates one Roll every five minutes. Activate it the moment you unlock Floor 3 — it earns passive Cash overnight.
Floor 4 — Mega Ore fusion
- Unlock cost: 50,000 Cash.
- What it adds: Mega Ore fusion station.
- Recommended buffer: 75,000 Cash (covers Mega Ore fusion stockpile).
- Time to clear: 5–7 days.
Mega Ore fusion combines three Epic Ores into a single Mega Ore worth ~25,000 Cash. The fusion has a 12-hour cooldown, so plan around the timer.
Floor 5 — Mythic Ores
- Unlock cost: 100,000 Cash.
- What it adds: Mythic Ores (Gargantuan, Voidshard, Solarite).
- Recommended buffer: 150,000 Cash.
- Time to clear: 7–10 days.
Floor 5 is the biggest wall for most players. Mythic rolls cost 10x more than Rare rolls, so you need a strong Cash buffer. Use the Money Making Mega Ore loop to bankroll the unlock.
Floor 6 — Mega Ore batching
- Unlock cost: 250,000 Cash.
- What it adds: Mega Ore batching station.
- Recommended buffer: 350,000 Cash.
- Time to clear: 10–14 days.
Mega Ore batching combines three Mega Ores into a single batched Mega Ore worth ~250,000 Cash. The batch has a 24-hour cooldown.
Floor 7 — Pet Fusion endgame
- Unlock cost: 500,000 Cash.
- What it adds: Pet Fusion station for Mythic Pets.
- Recommended buffer: 750,000 Cash.
- Time to clear: 14–21 days.
Floor 7 unlocks the endgame Pet Fusion — fuse two S-tier Pets into a Mythic Pet with a permanent 30%+ Cash multiplier. This is the final Floor in the current patch.

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to the most common questions.
Which Floor should I unlock first?
Always in numerical order. The Roll machine always rolls from the highest Floor you have unlocked, so skipping a Floor wastes the higher-tier roll tiers you get at each new Floor.
How much Cash should I save before each Floor?
Aim for a Cash buffer of about 1.5x the unlock cost. The buffer covers the first rolls and any fusions you need to perform on the new Floor.
Can I skip Floors?
No. Each Floor requires the previous Floor to be unlocked. You cannot jump straight to Floor 5 even if you have 500,000 Cash.
What is the fastest way to clear Floor 5?
Run the Mega Ore fusion loop on Floor 4 for a week, bankroll the Floor 5 unlock, then switch to Mythic Ore rolls. Use the [Money Making](/guides/money-making/) Mega Ore math to optimise.
