New to Crash Fever or just haven’t played it in a while but really want to get into the Miku collab? Having a hard time figuring out where to start? You’re in the right place! Here’s our crash course to help you jump right into the Miku collab! If you’d prefer just a quick rundown of what’s new, check out our previous article here.
Free Hatcher
First thing’s first: the free Hatcher. If you’re a new player, this free Hatcher is absolutely perfect to get you going with some really good units fit for the quests at hand. If you’re an old player, it’s still a free Hatcher and will hopefully help you complete your collection of Hatcher only VOCALOID units.
The Quests
If you’re a new player, take this time to level up your units using the free ducks given out as login bonuses and use Apples on your units to increase their stats. I won’t get too into that here but there are tons of guides online to help you out if you need some assistance.
Once you have some good units ready to fight, it’s on to the quests! There are a ton to choose from but there’s definitely an efficient way to go about everything.
New or old, focus on either Virtual Classic or Keyboard Resonance first depending on which units you have. You get Musical Notes 2020 (used in the Item Exchange to exchange for units from previous collabs) by completing these quests and collecting more and more of the units (which you need to do anyway to Bug Max them) so you’re best off collecting the many, many rewards of 390 Musical Notes 2020 before actually doing the Standby Party quest.
Doing more difficult levels of the quest gets you higher Bug counts but don’t feel discouraged if you’re only able to do the lower level quests. You’ll be leveling up over and over again as a newbie and each level up means a refill of energy! So you’ll be making progress in no time.
Now the focus is definitely on Bug Max-ing these units. Bug Max nets you two extra drops which means Bug Maxing following units faster. You can also use those Musical Notes 2020 that you receive to get Fruitful Future Hatsune Miku from the Item Exchange. You can Bug Max her for 450 Notes and she’ll be able to help you in the Virtual Classic Quest. Pair her up with Rin and Len V4X and any other unit capable of breaking Damage Panels without being injured and you’ll be able to take out the Virtual Classic quest over and over!
If your units are lacking, I’d definitely suggest starting with KAITO and Bug Maxing him first before moving on to the others as KAITO is super effective against both Luka and MEIKO.
While you can totally Bug Max these units without the help of multiplayer, the yields for multiplayer play are absolutely amazing and I highly recommend playing multiplayer if you can.
Spiral Scream Kagamine Len
In addition to getting the KAITO, Luka, and MEIKO units when completing their respective quests, each quest has a chance of the 6* unit Spiral Scream Kagamine Len appearing. If he appears and you beat the quest, you’ll receive one unit with a set number of Bugs depending on the quest difficulty. Higher difficulties yield higher Bugs.
There’s no other way to obtain this Len unit so good luck Bug Maxing him!
Daily Quest: Singin’ Orchestra
Don’t worry about having a Bug Max unit for this quest; it drops the same thing every time. You’re allowed to play this quest once a day and it’ll drop a 6* Concert Princess Snow Miku 2020 with 11 Bugs each time. You have to play the quest nine days during the event to get to Bug Max! Make sure to play it every day in order to max out the unit.
Guerrilla Quest: On Air! Guerrilla Live Show
This special Guerilla Quest is also an easy one to finish but I definitely recommend using multiplayer for it! Having a Bug Max unit is a nice bonus but 100% unnecessary thanks to the drop mechanics. Any Bug Max units will net extra drops but they’re all enhancement units. Here’s the run down of the multiplayer drops for the quest:
- 1 Player: 1x Chibi Performers Miku and Franklin 1 Bug
- 2 Players: 1x Chibi Performers Miku and Franklin 1 Bug, 1x Chibi Performers Miku and Franklin 2 Bug
- 3 Players: 1x Chibi Performers Miku and Franklin 1 Bug, 1x Chibi Performers Miku and Franklin 2 Bug, 1x Chibi Performers Miku and Franklin 3 Bug
- 4 Players: 1x Chibi Performers Miku and Franklin 1 Bug, 1x Chibi Performers Miku and Franklin 2 Bug, 1x Chibi Performers Miku and Franklin 3 Bug, 1x Chibi Performers Miku and Franklin 4 Bug
As you can see, it definitely adds up when you play multiplayer!
In addition, playing multiplayer will net you Polygons. You’ll receive 50 Polygons for the first ten players you play with and 10 Polygons for the next 89. That’s enough for a few pulls from the Hatchers!
While this unit isn’t exactly amazing overall, it’s definitely worth Bug Maxing for the Bug Max bonuses.
Standby Party
The Standby Party quest is where you get the Musical Notes 2020 that you can exchange for previous years’ units in the Item Exchange. The Wizard level will likely be most accessible to new players as it focuses on Damage Panels which many of the VOCALOID units can deal with. Ultimate, on the other hand, focuses on Protected Panels which are a completely different game. However, the new MEIKO unit is capable of dealing with both so she’ll make a great addition to the team.
The Wizard level quest will net you 100 Musical Notes 2020 per solo run with an additional 20 for Bug Maxed. As always, running the quest with others will work better for drops but isn’t required.
Score Attack: Aim at the Top!
This quest is by far the most difficult. With five stages of increasing difficulty, it’s definitely a challenge. Only try it if you’ve got quite the team!
Returning Quests
There are multiple returning quests as well all offering the chance to get units from previous years’ collaborations! You’ll have to decide if these quests are worth doing or if farming Musical Notes 2020 would work better for you.
Note that one quest from MIKU Museum 2016, Frosty Diva, will likely end up on your list of quests to grind as the unit dropped is used as Awakening material for several of the older collab units.

The Hatchers
These two Hatchers both have the chance of dropping four collaboration units, two of which are Crypton VOCALOIDS, but each side has a preference towards one of those VOCALOID units. Choose the Miku side for a higher chance at Green String Girl Hatsune Miku and the Rin side for a higher chance at Yellow Camellia Kagamine Rin.
The first pull is a discounted 250 Polygons with each following pull being 500. On the 6th pull, you’re guaranteed to pull one of the four featured units!
You can check out the app itself for more details on all the featured units.
More Information
There are of course packages you can purchase for Polygons and other various items. However, those cost real money and that’s not what this guide is about. I’m just hoping to help out players so they can decide the best way to tackle this giant event. Hopefully it’s been of some help to you!
You can find Crash Fever on the Google Play Store as well as the Apple App Store.
Each of these quests also has a chance of the 6* Unit Spiral Scream Kagamine Len appearing. If you defeat the quest, he’ll drop as well! This higher the difficulty of the quest, the higher the Bug count will be for this unit. There’s no other way to obtain him outside of these quests.
