Raise an Anomaly tier list
Rank the loop you can steal, not a fake 0.01% table.
A tier list for a 26-day-old Roblox tycoon has to be honest about missing data. Raise an Anomaly has no public dex, no cash-per-second sheet, and no rarity enum in the description. What it does have is official art of growth ladders and four gamepasses that tell you which resources matter. This hub is the ranking method. Concrete families live on best anomalies and growth stages.
Ranking criteria (September 2026)
We score a family on four questions:
- Can you steal it on purpose? A monster you cannot find is F for your account even if it is S in a thumbnail.
- Does it hatch and feed without extra stations? If it needs a tub you have not built, it is worse than a smiler you can steak immediately. See how to feed.
- Does the adult morph imply more presence? Official Level 99999 and Age 100 shots are the developers telling you the ceiling is visual and probably economic.
- Does it block a slot? One starving secret is worse than one fed common. Slot opportunity cost is real when hatch capacity is low — lab upgrades.
We do not score fan-made odds, script ESP, or names copied from SCP wiki articles. The game is inspired by SCP aesthetics; it has not published Foundation numbers.
Temporary tiers
| Tier | Who belongs until numbers exist |
|---|---|
| S | Any family you can steal, hatch, and feed on a loop without dropping. Consistency is S while data is thin. |
| A | Yellow smiler ladder (Level 1 ball → 50 limbs → 99999 adult) because the official three-panel exists and is easy to recognize. |
| B | Pale screamer ladder (tub Age 1 → hallway Age 100) — high identity, possibly scarier to play around in five-player halls. |
| C | Forest grin (Day 01 ball → Day 100 giant) — strong marketing, unknown steal location. |
| D | Crib humanoid in a yellow polo — may be a starter, a joke baby, or a parent. Unranked until you see it generate cash. |
| F | Anything you bought from a player seller or spawned with a script. |
When players publish cash/sec, this table will split into Early Game and Late Lab. Until then, do not sell your only adult because a YouTube title said Secret.
How to use the list in a session
Steal what the current crib holds. Rank later. The beginner guide is still the first hour. After two successful extracts, compare models to the roster so you know whether you are holding a smiler or a screamer. Feed the one you have. If you must choose which baby gets the last steak, feed the one closer to an adult morph on growth stages.
X2 Money multiplies whatever you already raise. It does not change tiers. X2 Growth Speed only changes how fast you see the next morph. Neither pass is a tier of its own; they are discussed in the gamepass planner.
What will move ranks
- A public index with names and income.
- A patch that nerfs a family (watch updates).
- Proof that secrets use a different steal rule.
- Proof that player-to-player steal exists (not in the official copy today).
Until those, the S tier is “the anomaly you actually finished.” That sentence is not a cop-out. In a steal tycoon, the bottleneck is the crib, not the spreadsheet. Master how to steal eggs and the list gets sharper on its own.
Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers for stealing eggs, hatching, and raising anomalies.
Is this list based on DPS?
No. There is no public income sheet. We rank steal consistency and official growth ladders.
Where is the Secret tier?
Player reports sit on secret anomalies. They are not a cash rank yet.
Should I reset a common for a smiler?
Only if you can steal the smiler this session. An adult common beats an empty slot.
