Getting Started in Devil's Market

Your first hour in Pasar Setan - from empty plot to ghost customers at your stall.

Getting Started

Devil’s Market (Pasar Setan) on Roblox is a cozy ghost-market simulator from Project Dukun. You grow mystical plants during the day, cook them into strange dishes, then open a stall at night to sell to spirits. There are no jumpscares - the vibe is calm, social, and online-friendly. This guide walks through your entire first session so you finish night one with coins in hand and a clear plan for day two.

Launch the game through the official page: Pasar Setan on Roblox. If you prefer a video companion, the embedded tutorial above shows the same loop in real time.

What you are building toward

Every session follows the same rhythm:

  1. Grow ingredients on your plot (jasmine is the tutorial crop)
  2. Cook at your prep station into sellable dishes
  3. Sell at the night market when ghost customers arrive
  4. Upgrade your stall and eventually unlock a floating island home

Understanding that loop early prevents wasted coins on decor before your kitchen can support better recipes.

Tutorial and first spawn

After loading, the game places you on a starter plot with basic tools. Follow NPC prompts - they introduce planting, watering, and walking to the cooking area. Do not skip dialogue; it unlocks the stall UI pieces you need later.

Pick up your watering can and seed pouch. The tutorial usually grants jasmine seeds first because they grow quickly and feed simple starter recipes. If you feel lost on inputs, open the Controls guide for PC and mobile layouts.

Plant your first jasmine

Walk to the tilled soil patch marked on your plot:

  1. Equip seeds from inventory
  2. Click or tap empty beds to plant
  3. Water immediately - dry beds slow growth even in the tutorial
  4. Wait for the growth stage indicator to show harvest ready (a few in-game minutes)

Jasmine becomes the backbone crop for early cooking. Later you will mix it with foraged items like grave mushrooms; see Farming Ingredients for the full crop list.

Harvest and head to the kitchen

When jasmine glows or shows a harvest icon, interact to collect bundles into inventory. Carry them to the cooking station near your hut. The tutorial recipe is intentionally simple - follow on-screen ingredient slots and press cook.

Cooking is not instant on higher tiers, but your first dish finishes quickly. While waiting, explore the plot boundary so you know where night-market pathing starts. The Cooking Guide explains how ingredient quality affects sale price once you outgrow tutorial meals.

Open the stall at night

When the sky shifts and ambient lighting dims, NPCs prompt you to open the stall. Interact with your stand sign to start the shift. Ghost customers queue politely - this is a cozy sim, not a horror chase.

During your first shift:

  • Serve the dish you cooked when a customer requests it or when the serve prompt appears
  • Watch the coin counter tick up after each happy spirit
  • Close the stall when the night phase ends or when you run out of stock

First-night income is modest but enough to buy more seeds or a basic stall upgrade. Deeper stall strategy lives in the Night Market guide.

Spend your first coins wisely

Avoid cosmetic splurges until you can reliably stock two dishes per night. Priority purchases:

  1. Extra jasmine seeds or a second bed - doubles harvest volume
  2. Stall capacity upgrade - more customers per night means more coins
  3. Watering improvement if offered - saves time between plantings

Save floating island dreams for mid-game; unlock requirements are covered in Floating Island Home.

Codes, Discord, and staying updated

There are no active promo codes right now, but when Project Dukun drops them you redeem via the top-right menu → Codes → Exchange. Bookmark the Codes Hub. Join Discord for patch notes and event UGC like Pocong Lucu or the Thief Bag.

Your day-two checklist

After session one you should:

  • Know how to plant, water, and harvest jasmine
  • Cook at least one dish without tutorial arrows
  • Complete one full night stall shift
  • Spend coins on income, not decor
  • Read Farming and Cooking guides before grinding blindly

Devil’s Market rewards repetition. Two or three evenings of the grow-cook-sell loop and you will feel the cozy rhythm that keeps Pasar Setan players coming back.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the most common questions.

Is Devil's Market scary or full of jumpscares?

No. Pasar Setan is a cozy simulation. Ghost customers are friendly NPCs who buy food - there are no horror jump scares in the core loop.

Can I play Devil's Market on mobile?

Yes. Roblox mobile works well for farming and stall serving. See the Controls guide for touch tips if buttons feel cramped.

How long until I unlock the floating island?

It depends on stall earnings and story milestones. Most players reach it after several nights of consistent sales - not in the first hour.

Do I need friends to progress?

No. The game is online multiplayer-friendly but fully soloable. Friends help socially, not mechanically, for the main progression path.
