If you're deep into the eerie and absurd world of Steal a Brainrot, you've probably come across cryptic whispers about Los Crocodilitos—a peculiar and powerful Brainrot hidden behind one of the game’s more convoluted unlock methods. This guide will walk you through everything you need to know about how to get Los Crocodilitos in Steal a Brainrot, including detailed steps for completing the required ritual.


Who Are Los Crocodilitos?

In the twisted ecosystem of Steal a Brainrot, Los Crocodilitos stand out not just for their unsettling design—a trio of synchronized, grinning reptilian entities—but also for their unique gameplay impact. They grant a stacking buff to swamp-related mechanics, making them indispensable in any Bog Madness run or ritual-focused build.

But as expected from a Brainrot this bizarre, you won’t find them by grinding mobs or hoping for a lucky RNG pull. You’ll need to complete a multi-phase ritual involving specific locations, time-based actions, and a few sacrificial items.


Step-by-Step: Steal a Brainrot – How to Get Los Crocodilitos (Ritual Guide)

Unlocking Los Crocodilitos requires you to complete a hidden questline that only becomes available after your third rebirth. Here’s the complete breakdown:


1. Reach Rebirth Tier 3

First, ensure your character has undergone at least three rebirths. If you haven’t hit this milestone, focus on farming Neural Echoes and completing side quests with high Synapse Yield. The ritual quest won't appear in your Rotten Journal until you've rebirthed at least three times.


2. Visit the Forgotten Drain (00:00–02:00 Game Time)

Head to the Forgotten Drain, a rarely-visited area beneath the Guts Market. The entrance only opens between 00:00 and 02:00 in-game time, so plan accordingly. You’ll need to:

  • Enter alone (multiplayer disables the ritual trigger).

  • Equip a Brainrot with the Drenched or Swamp-Touched trait.

  • Carry a jar of Pickled Neurons (craftable from the Lab after unlocking tier 4 chemistry).

Once inside, interact with the waterlogged mural near the southern wall. This will trigger the first stage of the ritual.


3. Perform the Crocodilian Waltz

Yes, it’s exactly as weird as it sounds. Your character must perform the emote “Thrash & Stomp” (unlocked by maxing out Trash Talk reputation) three times in the presence of the mural. Each performance must be timed to the ambient gurgling sound in the room.

Do it correctly, and a ripple will appear in the water, along with a new dialogue prompt: “You have summoned the First of the Three.


4. Offer the Tri-Scales

Next, collect and sacrifice the Tri-Scales, three rare fish scattered throughout the marsh biomes:

  • Scale of Humor – Found only in Giggle Bog during acid rain weather.

  • Scale of Hunger – Rewarded for completing the Sewer Feast sidequest without eating any food.

  • Scale of Horror – Dropped randomly from Laughing Leeches in the Croaking Catacombs.

Return to the Forgotten Drain, drop all three scales into the ripple pool, and wait for the text: “The Trio awakens.


5. Embrace the Flood

Finally, die in the pool. No, really—walk into the water with zero Sanity and allow the water to drown you. Your death will trigger a unique cutscene where Los Crocodilitos emerge from the shadows and imprint themselves into your brain.

After respawning, check your Brainrot CompendiumLos Crocodilitos will now be permanently unlocked and equippable.


Final Thoughts

The process for unlocking Los Crocodilitos is as bizarre and thematic as the rest of Steal a Brainrot. It requires not just item farming, but awareness of time mechanics, emote usage, and a willingness to experiment. This is one of the clearest examples of the game blending ritualism with satire in ways that reward observant, lore-invested players.

If you’ve followed this Steal a Brainrot – How to Get Los Crocodilitos (Ritual Guide) closely, you should now have one of the most eccentric and useful Brainrots in your roster. Just remember: every time they giggle, someone else loses Sanity.
