What the campaign page lists

The general reward list progresses from a rug through a bed, garage door, Thompson and large wood box, with viewing thresholds of one to five hours. Use the campaign page's participating streams and requirements when the event opens.

Do the account check before the event

  • Open the official Facepunch campaign page from a saved link and confirm which accounts are connected.
  • Check that you can sign in to those accounts before planning a long viewing session.
  • During the campaign, use Twitch's Drops inventory to follow the progress shown for the reward and complete its claim step.

Choose a stream that counts

General rewards use Rust streams marked Drops Enabled; streamer-specific rewards have their own channel requirements. Check the official campaign list before leaving a stream open.

Watching several channels does not accelerate progress: Facepunch says only one active channel counts at a time. Use the inventory progress display to check which reward you are working toward.
