Survive Overnight in a Mega Store Hollow Quest: Tasty Brew Badge Guide

A complete Survive Overnight in a Mega Store Hollow quest walkthrough: cauldron location, pumpkin chest spots, the 18-candy grind, and the 20-Ticket badge.

For reference only: Current October 2026 non-wiki guides conflict on meter restoration: SuperCheats says food restores Health and energy drinks restore Energy, while Pro Game Guides says food/drink boosts Energy and Stamina and Health regenerates over time. Treat every food/Health/Energy restoration mapping in this article as an attributed account, not an established mechanic.

Few Roblox event missions punish a full inventory quite like this one. The Survive Overnight in a Mega Store Hollow quest asks you to gather 18 candies — six of each of three variants — and tip them into a witch's cauldron while store guards patrol the aisles and the day-night cycle keeps flipping on you. Finish it, and the Survive Overnight in a Mega Store Hollow quest hands over the "A Tasty Brew" badge and the 20 Hollow Tickets tied to it.

The two written walkthroughs referenced here were published on October 22 and October 27, 2026, so treat everything below as a snapshot of the quest as it stood in late October 2026. Start by opening Survive Overnight in a Mega Store on the official Roblox game page and stepping through any "Start new game!" portal in the Halloween lobby.

What the Hollow Quest Actually Requires

The objective is a scavenger hunt wrapped inside a survival round. Pro Game Guides' October 22, 2026 walkthrough puts the requirement at 18 candies total — six of each of the three candy types shown as icons above the pot. Sportskeeda's October 27, 2026 guide describes the same loop: deposit sweets, watch each icon until it reads "Full," then stir the brew.

One thing the badge does not give you is a UGC item — Sportskeeda notes the payout is Tickets rather than a cosmetic drop. Those Tickets go toward cosmetics and gadgets in the Concessions shop inside The Hollow hub.

Where to Find the Cauldron

The two guides place the pot slightly differently. Sportskeeda describes it beyond the food aisles, up a set of wooden stairs, while Pro Game Guides reports it near the store entrance with a candy count displayed above it. Maps shift between updates, so trust the landmark instead of a fixed coordinate: look for a large pot with three candy icons hovering over it.

Whatever route you take, do a slow lap of the store before your first night. Knowing where the cauldron sits — and which aisles sit between it and your farming route — saves minutes every time you need to deposit a full bag.

Candy Farming Routes: Chests, Coffins, and Guards

There are three ways to feed the pot, and they are not equal. Pumpkin chests are the backbone of any farming run, coffins are a daytime shortcut, and guards are a lottery ticket with a health bar attached.

Pumpkin chests only open at night

Pumpkin chests spawn across the map but can only be cracked open after dark, which is why scouting matters more than sprinting. Pro Game Guides lists three spawns it calls reliable:

LocationHow to get there
Weapons purchase areaWalk straight from the cauldron, then turn left
Center of the mapLeft or right wall of the central corridor running north to south
Graveyard (cemetery)Center of the graveyard at the back of the map

Coffins pay out in daylight

The graveyard is worth a detour even before nightfall. Prying the lids off coffins can hand you candies directly, or open a secret room holding one or more pumpkin chests. Interact with a coffin to pull the top free, move it aside, and loot what's underneath. It's the cleanest documented way to make candy progress while the sun is still up.

Guard kills are random, so don't build a plan around them

Guards drop sweets when they go down, but the drop isn't guaranteed and the candy type is random. Pro Game Guides recommends skipping guard farming for the quest and treating any drops as a bonus. Guards also group up quickly, and a two-front fight while your bag is stuffed with candy is how good runs end early.

Watch your inventory pressure

Sweets eat a lot of slots. Sportskeeda's advice is to leave your bunker carrying only a food item, a medical item, and a weapon so the rest of the bag stays open for candy. Walking back to base to dump loot can cost you a full night cycle, so plan deposits around your route rather than your mood.

Surviving the Night While You Farm

Every guide to the Survive Overnight in a Mega Store Hollow quest repeats the same warning: the candy grind is only half the job. Guards march the aisles looking for players, and getting caught mid-loot with no weapon is a wasted night.

  • Build before dark. Sportskeeda suggests using planks and barrels during the day to assemble a bunker that guards can't break into.
  • Carry real damage. Pro Game Guides points to the Katana as a solid pickup for cutting down employees who close in at night.
  • Top off energy and stamina. Eat and drink whatever food you find, because both bars matter when you're running from a chase.
  • Respect the slow heal. Health regenerates slowly over time and only while you're avoiding damage, so disengaging beats trading hits.
  • Silence the alarm. Guards who spot you will try to raise it — deal with them fast or move before they can.

A simple rhythm works well: spend daylight looting coffins and stocking supplies, spend the night opening pumpkin chests and dodging patrols, then deposit candy whenever your bag is full and the sun is back.

Stirring the Cauldron and Claiming Your 20 Tickets

Once all three candy icons read "Full," walk up to the cauldron and hold E to stir the brew. Do it during the day — Sportskeeda explicitly recommends daytime stirring so your nights stay reserved for chest hunting, guard fights, and candy collection.

The stir completes the Survive Overnight in a Mega Store Hollow quest instantly. You'll receive "The Hollow Quest: A Tasty Brew" badge, which Pro Game Guides also refers to as the Tasty Brew Badge. For reference only, Sportskeeda's cited account describes a later badge redemption in The Hollow hub, while TechWiser and Pro Game Guides report the 20 Tickets at brew completion; confirm the current event UI before assuming either flow.

A few mistakes worth avoiding:

  • Stirring at night and losing farming hours you can't get back.
  • Hoarding one candy type while another sits at zero — check the icons, not your inventory count.
  • Skipping the graveyard because it's out of the way; the coffin loot is the fastest daytime progress in the game.
  • Fighting guards for drops instead of chests, then dying with a full bag of random sweets.

FAQ

How many candies do you need for the Survive Overnight in a Mega Store Hollow quest? Eighteen. You need six of each of the three candy variants, which is why the cauldron icons are worth checking before you leave the store.

Can you collect candy during the day in Survive Overnight in a Mega Store? Yes — open the coffins in the graveyard at the back of the map. They can contain candies directly or reveal secret rooms with pumpkin chests. Pumpkin chests themselves only open at night.

Do you have to kill guards to finish the quest? No. Guard kills can drop random candy, but the drop isn't guaranteed, so both published guides treat chests and coffins as the primary route.

What is the reward for the Hollow quest in Survive Overnight in a Mega Store? The "Hollow Quest: A Tasty Brew" badge is tied to a 20-Ticket reward. For reference only, sources disagree on whether the Tickets arrive at brew completion or through a later Hollow Hub redemption. There is no UGC item attached to this particular quest.
