The daily cipher is a new addition that lets you tap a specific daily term in Morse code and immediately get one million free in-game coins. It’s as simple as that. Here’s how to enter the daily cipher code to earn your free coins, and where to find it.

What is the daily cipher?

Introduced on June 5, Hamster Kombat’s daily cipher offers engaged players 1 million free tokens daily. It was teased via a post on the game’s official Telegram channel, along with a string of Morse code displayed on the Telegram mini app’s loading screen (it literally read “LOADING”).

There’s a specific input method, though, so here’s what you need to know. And the method has changed slightly since then, thanks to a UI redesign that puts a dedicated “Daily cipher” button on the main screen at all times.

To begin the process now, tap that Daily cipher button on the main screen. This will change the background of your hamster icon to red, and now you’re set to enter the code.

The very first term for June 5 was “BTC” (aka Bitcoin), and it’s inputted through the following Morse code string: long hold and then three quick taps (B), long hold (T), and finally a long hold followed by a tap, another long hold, and another tap (C).

Each letter is displayed on the screen after it’s accurately entered, so you’ll know whether you’ve got it right. It took us a few tries to nail the cadence, but eventually we were able to input “BTC” with Morse code and net the free coins. Easy as that.

How do you find the daily cipher?

The daily cipher will be reset at 7pm UTC each day going forward, according to an official YouTube video, which is also where Hamster Kombat revealed that the first code was indeed “BTC.”

But people had already discovered this ahead of the video launch, whether through trial and error or perhaps clues shared elsewhere. As of this writing, that’s still not totally clear. And the game still doesn’t tell you, at least not in any obvious way.

As of Saturday, July 20, the current cipher code is:

REWARD: R (• — •), E (•), W (• — —), A (• —), R (• — •), D (— • •)
