Find Gus Opens Brawloween’s First Phase
Brawl Stars has opened the first chapter of its 2026 Brawloween story. The official “Help find Gus!” animation published October 1 sends players into Mortis Mortuary after Gus disappears during a ride. The assignment is to search the attraction, solve its puzzles and finish the available rooms before the first phase ends on October 12.
This is not presented as a single isolated challenge. The video description calls Brawloween a month-long event with four connected phases, while Supercell’s release notes say the story will move through puzzles, community choices, a creator-led experience and a finale. Find Gus is the opening chapter and establishes the mystery that ties the larger event together.
The immediate reward is a Coffin Box. The official video connects that reward to solving puzzles, finding Easter eggs and completing every room. A guide published by SportsDunia on October 1 adds a room schedule and the first entrance solution. Those walkthrough details are third-party guidance; the live game remains the authority for progression.
The Mortuary entrance begins the search
The first puzzle is built around entering Mortis Mortuary. SportsDunia’s walkthrough instructs players to assemble Mortis’s shovel from pieces hidden around the scene, break pumpkins for a key and letter, and inspect the left entrance for another clue. The central task then uses letters visible across the entrance to identify marked graves and recover pieces needed to continue.
The guide names TOMAR, YOU, DYNAMIKE and GUS as the grave sequence. It describes selecting letters from the gate and nearby objects, digging the highlighted graves and finally collecting the main key. Because interactive scenes can change or be corrected after launch, players should compare each step with what is visible in their own game before tapping through the room.
Loony, Gus’s balloon companion, provides hints during the search. That detail connects the playable puzzle to the wider seasonal design introduced in Supercell’s notes, where Loony lives on the home screen and reacts to game activity. In Find Gus, the character has a practical role: directing attention when the player is stuck without removing the discovery element.
The official end date creates the useful boundary. October 12 is the final day named for Find Gus, while later Brawloween chapters will be revealed when their phases begin. Finishing early leaves time to revisit missed Easter eggs, but the main objective is progression through the available rooms and confirmation that the Coffin Box reward has been received.
How to approach the event safely
Start from the in-game Brawloween entry and avoid unofficial reward links. Inspect the scene before using a walkthrough, because several clues depend on movable or breakable objects. If the interface differs from a published guide, trust the current game state and Loony’s hints first.
The story is designed to unfold, so an unavailable room may simply be time-gated. The SportsDunia guide describes new sections unlocking every two days. Players should avoid repeating completed steps or assuming that all rooms must be open on October 1. The clean completion check is progress inside the event and the eventual Coffin Box award.
- Open the Find Gus chapter through the live Brawloween event in Brawl Stars.
- Use Loony’s hints and inspect movable objects before following a third-party solution.
- Complete the available rooms by October 12 and verify the Coffin Box reward in game.

Find Gus gives the 2026 Brawloween season a clear opening mystery instead of a conventional menu of disconnected quests. Gus has vanished inside Mortis Mortuary, Mortis needs help and Loony supplies hints as each puzzle opens the next part of the search. The official sources confirm the October 1–12 window, the room-based structure and the Coffin Box reward. Walkthroughs can make the entrance puzzle easier, but the live event remains the authority when a clue or room differs. That balance preserves the fun of discovery while protecting progress: enter through the game, inspect the scene, use hints when necessary and confirm each completed step before moving on. The larger four-part Brawloween story will continue after this chapter, making the first search both a self-contained reward route and the starting point for the month’s connected narrative.
