Survive a Million Monkeys Guides
From first Lobby redeem to deep wave climbs — every core tutorial in one hub.
Welcome to the Survive a Million Monkeys Guides Hub. This Roblox horde survival game from gorilla warfare throws endless rabid monkey waves at lobbies of up to 25 players. You choose a class, unlock guns with Gems, fight with friends, and climb the survivor leaderboard. Guides here turn that loop into a deliberate plan instead of a wipe montage.
Start with onboarding and free rewards, then specialize. Every article below cross-links to Codes, the Tier List, and the Players Hub so you never bounce between dead ends.
All Survive a Million Monkeys guides
Getting Started
Your first-hour checklist: finish the tutorial, redeem Lobby codes, understand Gems, pick an early class direction, and survive the opening waves without wasting unlock currency. Read this before anything else if your account is new.
How to survive waves
Positioning, kite paths, co-op roles, upgrade timing, and wipe recovery. This is the “how to beat waves” deep dive for players who already know the Lobby but keep falling off mid-run.
How to get Gems
Codes, run rewards, and spend priorities so you unlock Juggernaut, Bomber, Engineer, Medic, and weapons like the Epic Deagle without stalling. Pair it with the live table on the Codes Hub.
Best weapons
Weapon progression advice, when to invest after class unlocks, and how guns support horde clear versus single-target panic moments. Reminder: Epic Deagle is a weapon goal, not a class.
Classes
Role overview for Survivor (starter), Medic (4-stack support), Juggernaut, Bomber, and Engineer. Use it to decide what to unlock, then confirm rankings on the Tier List.
Free Rewards
Claim the Lobby purple gift box for a free SMG plus 1000 Gems (like the game, enable notifications, join the gorilla warfare group), and redeem active codes including 1MVISITS for 10,000 Gems plus SURVIVE and MONKEYS for 1,000 each — up to 12,000 Gems from codes alone.

What these guides optimize for
Survive a Million Monkeys launched on 10 August 2026 and quickly climbed to roughly 2.1 million visits and about 42 thousand favorites. That growth means public lobbies are full of mixed skill — and it is why milestone codes such as 1MVISITS matter. Our guides optimize for:
- Fair play progression without relying on risky tools (see educational notes on Scripts if you are only researching the topic)
- Co-op clarity so random teammates still benefit from your positioning
- Gem efficiency after codes and the purple gift box so you do not unlock the wrong thing twice
- Leaderboard-minded habits: longer waves, fewer resets, better upgrade cadence
- Clear class roles so Survivor, Medic, Juggernaut, Bomber, and Engineer each have a job
How to use each guide during a session
Before you queue, open Getting Started, Free Rewards, or the Tier List. During a wipe break, skim the survival guide’s positioning section. When you bank a large Gem spike from 1MVISITS or a clean climb, open the Classes, Gems, or weapons guide before spending. After a patch, read Updates first, then return here if class or gun advice shifted.
Guides are written for English search intent that players actually type: how to survive, how to get gems, free SMG, gift box, best weapons, beginner guide, codes redeem steps, Medic 4-stack tips, and class tier questions. Internal links use trailing slashes and descriptive anchors so you can jump without losing context.
Co-op first philosophy
Even strong classes lose when five players hold five disconnected angles. Every guide assumes you will eventually play with others. Call targets, share Bomber blast zones, let Juggernaut anchor, give Medic room to stabilize a 4-stack, and let Engineer support the plan. If you only play solo-public, bias durability picks and conservative weapon upgrades until your movement is clean.
Quality bar for this hub
We keep articles long enough to answer real questions — not keyword stuffing. Facts stay consistent with the rest of the wiki: Gems currency; active codes 1MVISITS (10,000 Gems), SURVIVE (1,000), and MONKEYS (1,000) for up to 12,000 Gems; purple gift box free SMG + 1000 Gems after like, notifications, and gorilla warfare group join; classes Survivor / Medic / Juggernaut / Bomber / Engineer; Epic Deagle as a headline weapon goal (not a class); max 25 players; Survival genre; developer group gorilla warfare.
When something changes in-game, we update the relevant guide and note the shift on the Updates Hub. If a tip conflicts with a brand-new patch, trust the newest update note and then the refreshed guide.
