Slime Rancher: Treasure Pod Location Guide

It can’t be said that the map of Slime Rancher is small. There are many unique locations to explore, each home to different types of slimes, all requiring distinct strategies to handle. However, the game isn’t just about slimes; you can also engage with other elements like gadgets.

In fact, if you craft enough gadgets, you can purchase an upgrade called the Treasure Cracker, which allows you to hunt for hidden treasure pods scattered throughout the game’s locations. With over 100 treasure pods to discover, finding them all can be challenging—that’s why we’ve prepared this guide for you!

How To Unlock Treasure Pods

Treasure Pods are chests that contain various loot, including materials for crafting gadgets, cosmetic items, and slime skins. They are divided into three categories: green, blue, and purple. You cannot open them directly. To open them, you first need to purchase the Lab expansion located to the south of your ranch for 10,000 Newbucks.

After that, you need to craft a certain number of gadgets and purchase the Treasure Crackers, which allow you to open the pods, from the machine next to your house on the ranch.

Treasure Cracker	Treasure Pod	Required Gadget Count	Cracker Price
Treasure Cracker MK I	This cracker opens Green Treasure Pods.	1	4,500 Newbucks
Treasure Cracker MK II	This cracker opens Blue Treasure Pods.	20	9,500 Newbucks
Treasure Cracker MK III	This cracker opens Purple Treasure Pods.	50	25,000 Newbucks

In addition to these, if you have purchased the Secret Style DLC, some Treasure Pods will be added to your game. No cracker is required to open them, and they allow you to change the appearance of your slimes. After obtaining them, you can make these changes from the menu in your house on the ranch.

All Treasure Pod Locations In The Ranch

There aren't many treasure pods on the Ranch, only two. To collect them, you'll need to purchase certain expansions.
