What is the Adopt Me Broken Hearts Activity?

The Valentine’s Heartbreak Activity (also called Crystal Heart Repair) is a server-wide limited-time event in Adopt Me! that runs during the Valentine’s season. Located near the Pet Hospital on Adoption Island, this activity challenges players to repair a broken Crystal Heart that the mischievous Cherub Chipmunks keep shattering.

Here’s how it works: When the Crystal Heart breaks (which happens 4 times every hour), 14 heart fragments scatter across Adoption Island. Your mission is to collect these hearts and return them to the Crystal Heart hub. The faster you and other players complete this task, the more Bucks everyone earns!

Why should you care? This activity is incredibly profitable! I’ve personally earned over 10,000 Bucks in a single day by mastering this event. Plus, it’s fun, social, and gives you something productive to do while waiting for other events.

Complete Step-by-Step Guide to Fixing Broken Hearts

Step 1: Getting Started

First things first, you need to know when and where the activity happens. The Crystal Heart hub is located next to the Pet Hospital, right in the center of Adoption Island. You can’t miss it – there’s a giant red spinning heart that serves as the event centerpiece.

Pro Tip: I recommend hanging out in this area 5-10 minutes before each hour (at :00, :15, :30, and :45 marks). This ensures you’re ready when the Cherub Chipmunks strike!

Step 2: The Event Begins

When the Crystal Heart breaks, you’ll see a notification pop up: “UH OH! The Crystal Heart is broken!” You’ll get an option to teleport directly to the event hub – I always use this feature to save time.

Important: You have exactly 3 minutes from the moment the heart breaks to collect all 14 hearts. The timer starts immediately, so there’s no time to waste!

Step 3: Finding and Collecting Hearts

This is where strategy comes into play. Here’s my proven method for maximum efficiency:

Heart Location Strategy: Hearts spawn randomly around the island, but I’ve identified consistent hotspots where hearts appear frequently:

Across the Bridge near the event hub
Behind the Beach Shop – always check here first
Around the Accessory Shop (both front and back)
Near the Grocery Shop area
On rooftops and high buildings – use your flying pet!

Visual Indicators: Each heart spawns with a light pillar shooting into the sky. This is your best friend! Instead of running around randomly, scan the horizon for these light beams. From any high vantage point, you can spot 3-4 hearts at once.

Collection Mechanics:

You can only carry one heart at a time
Simply enter the light pillar area to collect (no need to touch the heart)
Swimming while holding hearts is allowed – use water shortcuts!
Must return each heart before collecting another

Step 4: Returning Hearts and Earning Rewards

Each heart you successfully return to the Crystal Heart hub rewards you with 5 Bucks. Simple, right? But there’s more to it than that.

Heart Collector Quest: Once you return 3 hearts, you’ll complete the Heart Collector quest and earn an additional 50 Bucks bonus. This quest resets every time the activity starts, so you can earn it multiple times per hour.

Step 5: The Pulse Phase (Big Money Time!)

Here’s where the real magic happens. Once all 14 hearts are collected and the Crystal Heart is repaired, it begins pulsing for the remainder of the 3-minute timer.

During this pulse phase:

All players near the Crystal Heart earn 10 Bucks every 3 seconds
This works out to 200 Bucks per minute!
The faster you complete the collection, the longer the pulse phase lasts

My Strategy: I always work with other players to complete the heart collection in under 1 minute. This gives us a full 2 minutes of pulse phase, earning everyone 400+ Bucks just for standing there!

Advanced Strategies for Maximum Earnings

Strategy 1: Team Coordination

Don’t try to be a hero! The Broken Hearts activity is designed for teamwork. Here’s how I organize servers:

Use the chat to coordinate with other players
Divide the island into sections – each player covers their area
Call out heart locations as you find them
Focus on speed over individual heart count

A coordinated server can complete the activity in 60-90 seconds, maximizing everyone’s earnings.

Strategy 2: Pet Selection

Your choice of pet matters! Here are my recommendations:

Best Pets for This Activity:

Flying pets (Griffin, Dragon, etc.) – reach high locations easily
Fast ground pets – for quick transportation
No pet needed for the pulse phase – just stand near the heart

Pro Tip: I switch to my flying pet during collection, then switch to my favorite pet during the pulse phase to show off while earning free Bucks!

Strategy 3: Route Optimization

After hundreds of runs, I’ve developed the most efficient collection route:

Start with the bridge area – closest to hub
Check Beach Shop – reliable heart spawn
Scan rooftops from high vantage points
Check Grocery Shop area last
Use water shortcuts when returning hearts

This route minimizes backtracking and maximizes collection speed.

Strategy 4: Server Hopping

For maximum earnings, I recommend server hopping:

Join busy servers during peak hours (more players = faster completion)
Switch servers immediately after completing an activity
Track server times – different servers may have different event schedules
Build a friend list of active players to coordinate with

Common Mistakes to Avoid

After watching countless players struggle with this activity, I’ve identified the most common mistakes:

Mistake 1: Going Solo

Problem: Trying to collect all hearts by yourself Solution: Work with other players! This is a team activity

Mistake 2: Ignoring Light Pillars

Problem: Running around randomly looking for hearts Solution: Always look for the light pillars first – they’re your guide

Mistake 3: Wasting Time on Hard-to-Reach Hearts

Problem: Spending too much time on one difficult heart Solution: Skip it and find easier ones first, come back later

Mistake 4: Missing the Pulse Phase

Problem: Leaving after collecting hearts Solution: Stay for the pulse phase – that’s where the big money is!

Mistake 5: Not Using Teleport

Problem: Running back to the hub when the event starts Solution: Always use the teleport option – it saves precious seconds

FAQ

Why can’t I find any hearts?

Solution: Look up! Hearts spawn on rooftops and high buildings. Use a flying pet or find a high vantage point to spot light pillars.

Why didn’t I get the 50 Bucks bonus?

Solution: Make sure you return at least 3 hearts during a single activity round. The quest resets each time the heart breaks.

Can I do this activity alone?

Answer: Yes, but it’s much harder and less profitable. I strongly recommend finding a busy server with active players.

What’s the maximum Bucks I can earn?

Calculation: With perfect teamwork (1-minute completion), you can earn:

14 hearts × 5 Bucks = 70 Bucks
Heart Collector quest = 50 Bucks
2 minutes pulse phase × 200 Bucks/minute = 400 Bucks
Total per round: 520 Bucks
Per hour (4 rounds): 2,080 Bucks

Do I need Robux to participate?

Answer: No! The Broken Hearts activity is completely free. All rewards are paid in Bucks, which you earn by playing.

Advanced Pro Tips

After mastering this activity, I’ve discovered some lesser-known tricks:

The Rooftop Advantage

Many players ignore rooftops, but I consistently find 2-3 hearts up there during every round. Use your flying pet or find buildings with easy roof access.

Water Shortcuts

Did you know you can swim while carrying hearts? I use the rivers and water areas to cut across the island, saving 10-15 seconds per trip.

The 30-Second Warning

About 30 seconds before the heart breaks, you’ll see visual indicators. Use this time to position yourself near the center of the island for maximum reach.

Server Population Matters

I’ve tested this extensively: servers with 15+ players complete activities 40% faster than servers with fewer than 5 players. Server hop to find busy servers!

Final Thoughts

The Adopt Me Broken Hearts Activity is honestly one of the best events Uplift Games has created. It’s profitable, social, and actually fun to participate in. I’ve made so many friends and earned thousands of Bucks just by hanging out and working together with other players.

Remember, this event only runs until February 20, 2026, so make the most of it while you can! Set those alarms, find some good servers, and I’ll see you in Adoption Island fixing those hearts.
