Drill for Anime All Drills — Shop Evaluation Framework
How to compare drill upgrades honestly when Nomel Studios has not published a full public drill catalog.
Players search “all drills” hoping for a complete tier list of every purchasable rig in Drill for Anime. Nomel Studios ships drill progression through an in-game shop with stat upgrades rather than a wiki-friendly spreadsheet at launch. This page gives a framework for evaluating drills and shop rows without inventing a fake catalog of drill names, skins, or unverified tier labels scraped from Drill for Brainrots or fan fiction.
For first purchases, read Drill Upgrades. For click-through checklists, use the Upgrade Priority tool. For depth context, see Depth and Zones.
Why we do not list a fake drill roster
Drill for Anime launched 26 June 2026 with place updates into August 2026. Shop tabs, stat names, and cosmetic rows can change weekly. Publishing unverified drill names would:
- Mislead players following Drill for Anime vs Brainrots who need place 117459530347460 facts
- Create SEO clutter that contradicts the next patch
- Invent intellectual property where only generic “drill upgrade” rows exist
Instead, use the process below each session and screenshot your shop when reporting discrepancies to Discord.
What “drill” means in this game
At high level — matching the official loop — your drill is the tool that:
- Breaks underground tiles (speed / power)
- Gates depth or harder strata (reach)
- Influences fight success against anime-style units (combat / durability)
Cosmetic drill skins may exist without changing stats. Always read the tooltip before buying: if only appearance changes, treat it as flex spend after infrastructure.
Framework: evaluate any shop drill row
For each upgrade line in the shop, answer five questions:
1. Which bottleneck does this row remove?
- Slow tiles → speed or power category (Drill Upgrades)
- Stuck depth number → reach or depth category (Depth and Zones)
- Fight timeouts → combat or durability category (Character Fights)
Buy the row that matches your current symptom, not the flashiest banner.
2. What is the cash cost versus next income tick?
Compare price to expected gain from leveling your best rarity (Earn Faster). If one unit level beats the drill row for cash per minute, drill can wait unless depth is blocked.
3. Does the row unlock a new band or only polish current band?
Reach upgrades that open new encounter tables outrank marginal speed when rewards plateau. Speed outrank reach when fights are easy but sessions feel sluggish.
4. Is this row a real stat upgrade or cosmetic?
Cosmetics belong last in Upgrade Priority order. Stat rows belong before Lucky Blocks gambling unless an event window is confirmed on Updates.
5. Can you verify the effect in one test run?
Note depth meter, time per tile, and fight duration before and after purchase. If numbers barely move, you may have bought a duplicate category cap — common early player error.
Categories to expect (labels may rename)
Based on genre peers and launch footage — verify live labels:
| Category | Player-feel outcome | When to prioritize |
|---|---|---|
| Dig speed / power | Faster layers | Sluggish digging, easy fights |
| Depth / reach | New reward bands | Stale rarities, fast tiles |
| Combat / HP | Shorter fights | Deaths or timeouts |
| Efficiency / fuel | Longer continuous runs | Mid-run forced stops |
Nomel may merge or split these rows in the August 2026 patches. Tooltips beat wiki memory.
”All drills” versus upgrade tiers
Some games sell named drill tiers (starter → advanced → endgame). Others use incremental +1 levels on one rig. Drill for Anime may use either pattern or both (stat levels plus optional skins). Document what your shop shows:
- Incremental levels → track level number and stat affected
- Named tiers → track price jump and depth unlocked, not fan names
Share structured reports in Discord to help the community without inventing a static catalog here.
How drills interact with other systems
- Units — drills unlock where units matter; see Collection Index
- Offline earnings — drills enable deeper economies before logout (Offline Earnings)
- Codes — disputed
LUCK26/EPICmay fund drill rows if menus work (Codes hub) - No public Trello — shop changes arrive via Discord and Roblox description edits (Links hub)
Anti-patterns when shopping
- Copying Brainrots “best drill” lists — wrong place ID
- Buying cosmetics before first speed or reach upgrade
- Maxing one stat because a creator said so — test your bottleneck
- Assuming Robux drills are required — free progression path exists via cash loop
- Using scripts to auto-buy — see Scripts risk notes
Using wiki tools after shop review
- Run Upgrade Priority Checklist for session order.
- Cross-read Drill Upgrades for category theory.
- Log patch day changes on Updates when prices spike.
When a real catalog becomes available
If Nomel Studios publishes an official drill list or named tiers, we will add a verified table to this page and run npm run generate — not before. Until then, your shop screen is the catalog.

Frequently Asked Questions

Usually the first meaningful speed or power upgrade, then reach if rewards plateau. Exact shop rows vary — follow Drill Upgrades and Upgrade Priority for order.
