FAQ

Shotgun questions

Is Survive a Million Monkeys free?

It is a free Roblox horde game by gorilla warfare. You pick a class, shoot waves of monkeys, spend Cash during the run, and spend Gems in the hub on classes and guns. Optional purchases exist, including a premium RPG listing and the Gunslinger bundle.

What are you trying to do in a run?

The official description asks how long you can survive the monkey horde, with friends, guns, classes, and a survivor leaderboard. A run ends in defeat once the group can no longer hold. One guide says a match continues until all four players are defeated and then pays each player from their own contribution. A separate October 5, 2026 snapshot lists a 25-player server cap. Those two numbers are not the same fact.

Which codes have a published reward?

The Roblox description prints MONKEYS for 1,000 Gems. Guide listings through October 8, 2026 also report SURVIVE for 1,000 Gems and 1MVISITS for 10,000 Gems. No expired code has been published. A October 8 Destructoid line also names 5MVISITS for an unstated Gem amount, while other same-day lists still show only the three codes above, so 5MVISITS is not in the active table.

Are Gems and Diamonds two currencies?

Gems are the hub currency used for classes, guns, and later upgrades. Cash is spent inside a run. One class write-up calls the same class prices Diamonds. Codes, the official description, and the weapon price list use Gems, so this wiki uses Gems for those prices.
