# Getting started

## Step-by-step guide

{% step %}

#### Create an account on Roach Racing Club

Go to <https://beta.roachracingclub.com> and click Sign-Up

When you click “Sign-Up”, you’ll be prompted to log in using your AGW (Abstract Global Wallet).

If you don’t have one yet, you can sign in using your email or any non-custodial wallet (Metamask, Rainbow, etc.). In this case, during your first session, your own AGW wallet will be created automatically.

Read more about AGW [here](https://docs.abs.xyz/).
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Claim Your Roach

Every new player starts with one free garage slot.\
On your first login, you’ll be prompted to unlock this slot and claim your first Roach.

Your first Roach is generated randomly — its name, appearance, assigned cryptocurrency (BTC, LTC, ETH) and mood are all created automatically.

As you progress through the game, you can unlock additional Roaches and customize them by discovering new traits, opening new cryptocurrencies, and upgrading their stats. Read more about traits [here](/gameplay/roach-management/basics.md).
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Start Racing

Racing is the core gameplay loop of Roach Racing Club.\
Once you claim your first Roach, you’re ready to jump into your first race.

You can choose between several race types, but we recommend starting with Arcade to learn the mechanics and practice. Read more about race types [here](/gameplay/race-types.md).

In every race, you compete against other players. Your goal is to predict the live crypto chart to boost your Roach’s speed and aim for the top positions.\
\
At the end of each race, you’ll receive rewards based on your performance.\
Learn more about gameplay mechanics and rewards [here](/gameplay/race-types.md).\
\
After each race (except Pro Races) you need to recharge your Roach.&#x20;
{% endstep %}

#### How to Earn?

RRC offers several earning paths:

* XPR (main progression metric) — earned from races, daily rewards, items, badges, and more. Read about it [here](/gameplay/xpr-reward-system.md).&#x20;
* TRAX (USDC) — earned in Pro Races, where players wager their TRAX and compete with each other.
* MTGN — soft in-game currency earned from missions, drops, and rewards
* Partner tokens (e.g., $YGG) — during seasonal campaigns
* Abstract XP — earned through gameplay & Lootbox holding

You can also complete Quests, participate in tournaments, and unlock Badges for extra rewards.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Top-Up your Account

TRAX is the in-game stable token tied to USDC.&#x20;

1 TRAX = 0.07 USDC

You can top up TRAX and withdraw USDC from your game profile at any time at the same rate.

To add TRAX/USDC, you first need to top up your AGW (Abstract Global Wallet) with USDC on the Abstract Network.

More info on how to bridge USDC to your Abstract wallet [here](https://docs.abs.xyz/tooling/bridges).

After you got USDC in your wallet:

1. Click the TRAX icon in the top menu and select Top-up.
2. Choose the amount you want to add to your account.
3. Click Approve — a pop-up will appear asking you to authorise the operation (sign the transaction).
4. After approval, click Buy — your USDC will be converted into TRAX within a few seconds.
