An account is the ID which players use to play Growtopia.
No GrowID[]
Before players join the game, they will make an account with no GrowID. Players with no GrowID can change their name anytime, but, cannot transfer game progress to other devices and the game progress can only be accessed on the device.
Features of having no GrowID include:
- Able to change name anytime.
- Names will be followed by an ID from 100 to 999 (e.g. Username_452)
Restrictions of having no GrowID include:
- No password or email attached to account, cannot be recovered if lost.
- Unable to break high-rarity blocks until a certain level is unlocked and/or has created a GrowID.
- Unable to exceed level 10, until the player creates a GrowID.
GrowID[]
A GrowID is the account used by a player who has their progress saved and is able to play on multiple devices. Players cannot change their name (except with the use of a Birth Certificate) and must log in with their GrowID and password.
The features of a GrowID include:
- Inability to change your name (except with a Birth Certificate)
- Your email and password are attached to your account, which allows for changing passwords and sharing saved progress on multiple devices.
- Extra features which require a GrowID.
- Can be logged on with multiple devices.
- AAP to prevent anonymous devices from logging into the account.
- A GrowID's length should be between 3 and 18 characters.
Players without a GrowID or below level 20 will have their account subject to 'Are you a human' tests where they will be required to answer a basic arithmetic question. If the player fails to answer it after a few tries, they will be given the Silenced mod for ten minutes. Continuous failure to answer it will result in a 7-day ban. This was implemented to prevent players from creating bot accounts or accounts which automated any form of activity in Growtopia.
