Build the Pyramid: 171,700 Blocks per Pyramid Build

A Build the Pyramid! build requires 171,700 blocks from the entire server, not 171,700 from one player. The figure appears repeatedly in the September 2026 complete gameplay guide and is the clearest current answer.

Shared quota

Every player in the lobby contributes to the same structure. The guide emphasizes that the requirement is server-wide, so you should judge your contribution by trips and blocks placed rather than feeling responsible for the full total.

Because the total is fixed, the best way to help is to reduce downtime. Carrying more blocks per trip and placing more per interaction lets you turn the same time into more contributions.

After completion

When the pyramid reaches completion, contributing players are described as receiving a pyramid win or progression reward. That progression is tied to unlocking stronger gym multiplier zones.

The pyramid then resets and the server starts the next build. This creates the game's long-term loop: quarry, carry, place, upgrade, train, complete, and repeat.

How to use the number

The 171,700 total is useful as a progress benchmark. If a server is close to completion, your remaining trips can have an outsized effect on finishing that build.

For planning, use the Build the Pyramid calculator page with your own observed blocks per trip. Avoid converting the total into a personal quota without knowing how many active players are contributing.
