Last Updated: August 2026 | 55 million visits, a 75 Robux shop, and two numbers that flatly disagree.
Guide The Bacons is a drawing puzzle. Each little character has a house in their own color, and your job is to draw the route that gets them home. The catch is that the obvious routes cross, and two paths that meet mean nobody arrives.
It opened in August 2025 and has passed 55 million visits. This page has how the puzzle works, what the tiny shop sells, the second room nobody talks about, and a pair of numbers that make this one of the odder games we have covered.

How to Play Guide The Bacons
The rules fit in a sentence. Draw a path from each character to the house that matches them, and do not let the paths touch.
- Look at the colors first. Each little character has a house that matches them, and that pairing is the whole puzzle.
- Find where the routes want to cross. On most levels the two straight lines would meet, and that is the bit you have to solve.
- Send one the long way round. Only one path needs to bend, so decide early which one it will be.
- Draw the bending route first. Getting it out of the way makes the second path obvious.
- Keep clear of the enemies. Some levels put something in the way that will catch a character walking past.
- Watch them walk before you redraw. The paths only fail once they are moving, so let it play out.
- Stop when you are stuck. Your progress saves, so a level you cannot solve today is waiting tomorrow.
There is one badge in the whole game and you get it for arriving. Nothing else is keeping score, so how far you get is between you and the levels.
Guide The Bacons Gameplay: Two Numbers That Disagree
This is the strangest thing about the game, and both halves of it sit in plain sight on its own page.
More people have voted it down than up. There are 8,713 likes against 10,703 dislikes, so about 45 in every 100 votes are positive.
That is the only game we have written up where the dislikes win. Everything else has landed somewhere between 74 and 93.
Now the other half. It has been favorited 1,520,769 times, which works out at one favorite for every 36 visits.

Look down that first column. The next best game saves at half this rate, and most sit nearer one save per 900 visits.
So the most saved game we have covered is also the only one people vote down. We are not going to tell you why, because nothing we can check explains it.
Both numbers are real and they are public. It is worth knowing both before you decide what a rating is telling you about any game.
The Shop, and What It Costs

Three items and 75 Robux for all of them. That is the smallest shop we have covered, and it is not close.
Plenty of games sell a single pass for more than these three together. None of them are needed to finish a level either.
The dates are the interesting part. The game itself stopped getting updates in September 2025, but all three shop items were touched again in August 2026.
It Peaked Two Days After It Was Finished
The dates on this game tell a short, clear story. It opened on 19 August 2025 and got its last update on 7 September, nineteen days later.
Two days after that, on 9 September, it hit its busiest moment ever with 12,657 people playing at once.
So the crowd arrived just as the work stopped. Everything since has been a slow drift down, and it now runs a couple of hundred players.
It still banked 55 million visits doing it, which is a lot for a game that was only worked on for under three weeks.
There Is a Second Room Called END
Two rooms sit under this game and only one of them is the game. The other one is called END.
The odd part is when it was made. Rooms get their numbers in order, and this one has a lower number than the game itself.
That means it existed before the game did. A room called END was built first, and then the puzzle was built afterwards.
Nothing says what is in it and no visit count is published for it. It might be a finishing screen, or it might be something that never shipped, and we are not going to pretend to know.
Tips for New Guide The Bacons Players
- Decide which path bends before you draw anything. Only one of them needs to, and picking wrong means redrawing both.
- Draw the awkward one first. Once the long way round is down, the straight one almost places itself.
- Let it run before you judge it. Paths only fail when the characters walk them, so watch the whole attempt.
- Leave a gap near the crossing. Two lines that almost touch behave better than two that share a corner.
- Take a break on a hard level. Your progress saves, so nothing is lost by coming back later.
- Skip the shop. Nothing in it helps you solve a puzzle, and the whole thing is 75 Robux anyway.
Guide The Bacons FAQ
What am I actually doing?
Drawing a route from each character to the house that matches their color, without the routes crossing each other.
Does my progress save?
Yes. The game page says so plainly, so you can stop on a hard level and pick it up later.
Are there any badges?
One, and you get it for turning up. About 27 million players have it.
How much does the shop cost?
Seventy five Robux for all three items. None of them are needed and none of them solve a puzzle for you.
Is there a working script?
No, and nobody has written one. Our Guide The Bacons script page explains why the search still looks busy.
Why does it have more dislikes than likes?
Nobody can say for certain. What is public is that 8,713 votes were likes and 10,703 were dislikes, and that it has still been saved 1.5 million times.
Is it still being updated?
Not since September 2025, though the three shop items were touched again in August 2026.
About the Studio
The group behind this is verified and has 23,597 members, and this is the only game it runs.
Its description is three words long. It reads, in full, very cool games.
One person is credited on the game page itself, and the same name owns the group, so this looks like a one person project that got very big very quickly.
