The Lich Pet is unlocked by purchasing and interacting with a special Lich Crystal that triggers a sequence of riddles, each solved by placing specific pets or items on your garden plot in order. The entire chain ends with placing two Halloween candles from a limited‑time shop crate, after which the Lich Pet is awarded with unique spooky‑plant buffs and a party XP aura for Halloween pets.[1]
Prerequisites
[edit | edit source]- Lich Crystal: Appears in the Halloween Shop when stocked; the creator bought it with Robux when it wasn’t in stock, but it’s intended to reappear for purchase via the event shop rotation.
- Access to specific pets/items: Bat, Crow, Scarab pet, a Spellbook cosmetic, and two Halloween candles from the shop’s “Spooky Crate” are required to resolve all crystal riddles sequentially.[2]
Full unlock steps to get LICH PET in Grow a Garden
[edit | edit source]- Interact with the Lich Crystal to read its first riddle: “Perhaps a blind creature of the night could power the crystal.” Place the Bat pet on your garden to progress the puzzle.
- Second riddle: “The crystal yearns for something clever. A dark winged carrion.” Place the Crow to advance the sequence.
- Third riddle: “Something ancient is missing. Something of rebirth must crawl.” Place the new Scarab pet to satisfy the ancient/rebirth clue.
- Fourth riddle: “Perhaps an ancient book of spells could decipher its secrets.” Buy or equip the Spellbook cosmetic and place it on your garden.
- Final requirement: “Flickers of embers are missing. The crystal yearns two candles to pierce the veil between worlds.” Obtain two Halloween candles from the limited‑time Spooky Crate and place both to complete the ritual and receive the Lich Pet.[2]
Where to get the candles
[edit | edit source]The candles drop from the Halloween Shop’s Spooky Crate when it’s in stock, with an estimated drop chance around 15%, so multiple spins may be necessary during the rotation window. Because the Halloween Shop cycles availability, there can be downtime waiting for the Spooky Crate to reappear before you can pull candles.[1]
Lich Pet effects
[edit | edit source]- Spooky‑type plants within 32 studs receive increased 0.7x variant chance, 1.6x growth speed, and a 0.52 size bonus, making it a solid mid‑tier farming enhancer for Halloween crop specialization.
- All active Halloween‑type pets gain an additional 1.5 XP per second while the Lich Pet is active, providing a passive leveling aura that compounds during event grinds.[2]
Difficulty and time investment
[edit | edit source]The path is straightforward but luck‑gated at the final step by candle drops, so expect possible delays tied to shop restocks and crate RNG even after solving all prior riddles correctly. If you can’t find the Lich Crystal or candles in stock, check back during the Halloween Shop rotation or consider the Robux route for the crystal as shown in the video.[1]
Tips and best practices
[edit | edit source]- Clear inventory space and pet slots before placing the Scarab to avoid “max pets equipped” blockers mid‑sequence during the riddle chain.
- Bring currency for multiple Spooky Crate spins when the shop restocks to minimize downtime on the candle step, since two candles are required.
- Place each required pet/item immediately after reading the riddle to confirm progression; the crystal’s message changes to confirm you’ve satisfied each step.[2]
Quick FAQ
[edit | edit source]- Do you need Robux to get the Lich Crystal? Not strictly; it’s sold through the Halloween Shop rotation, but the creator purchased it with Robux when it wasn’t stocked, which is optional and used for speed in the video.
- What’s the hardest part? Pulling two Halloween candles from the Spooky Crate due to RNG and shop restock timing, despite earlier steps being deterministic once you have the pets/items.
- Is Lich Pet meta‑defining? It’s described as decent rather than best‑in‑slot, but its spooky‑plant buffs and pet XP aura make it worthwhile during Halloween‑type grinds and themed setups.[2]
