Shovels are an integral part of the Roblox Dig It. Shovels, besides adding flair to your character, are also essential to determine the loot you can acquire from digging. But, with over 15 different Shovels available in the game, finding the right way to unlock them can be tough if you don't know their locations. To help you out, we've created a guide for all shovel locations in Dig It.
Every Shovel Location in Dig It
There are currently 25 Shovels available in Dig It, some of which are limited-time ones, while others can be bought with Doolars. But even if you can buy them, you'll need to know their exact location to purchase them.
