Where are all 9 Sunken Shards in Speed Monkey Escape?

Two are in the lobby — one behind the Top Robux leaderboard wall and one on the high platform above spawn. The rest are spread through the stages: one in the early grey-block pit, one at the end of Stage 4 near the lava, one on a side platform in Stage 5, one in the water under Stage 6, two inside the Stage 7 maze, and the last in a pit at the very end of Stage 9.

What do you get for collecting all 9 Sunken Shards?

One of our three source recordings shows on-screen reward text reading 'Reward: x2 Speed Treadmill' after the ninth shard. The other two recordings show no reward text at all, so we can only attribute it to that one source rather than confirm it independently.

Are Sunken Shard locations random in Speed Monkey Escape?

No evidence of randomisation — the guides are presented as fixed routes and two of our three sources found shards in the same places. Where guides disagree, it looks like stage-number misreads rather than the shards moving.

How do I know how many shards I have in Speed Monkey Escape?

A message appears on screen each time you pick one up, reading 'Collected X/9 Sunken Shards!' There is no persistent counter in the UI that our sources showed, so the pickup message is your only progress indicator.

All 9 Sunken Shard Locations in +1 Speed Monkey Escape

Cross-checked against three separate guide videos, which matters here: they don't all agree. Below is what two or more sources place in the same spot, with the disputed ones marked.

The nine locations

#	Where	Landmark
1	Lobby	Behind the orange "Top Robux" leaderboard wall
2	Lobby	On the high platform above spawn, near the UPGRADES wall — reachable with the jump booster on the left of spawn
3	Stage 2–3 ⚠️	Down in a pit between the grey block platforms
4	Stage 4	Near the end of the stage, by the yellow lava
5	Stage 5	On a side platform off the main path, in the rolling-boulder section
6	Stage 6	In the water below the platforms — you have to drop in
7	Stage 7	Inside the maze, in a grassy pit
8	Stage 7	Inside the maze, on top of a high green pillar
9	Stage 9	In a pit/room at the very end of the stage

Each pickup shows "Collected X/9 Sunken Shards!" on screen. That message is the only progress indicator our sources showed — there's no persistent counter in the UI.

Where the guides disagree

⚠️ Shard 3 — Stage 2 or Stage 3? One source puts it under a grey pillar in Stage 2, another in a pit between grey blocks in Stage 3. Both describe the same kind of place. If it isn't in one, check the other.

⚠️ Shard 4's landmark. One source says behind a green block on the right, another says floating above the yellow lava at the end. Same stage, so sweep the end section.

A third guide diverges much further, placing three shards in the Stage 6 maze and the last one in Stage 8. Its stage numbers run consistently one lower than the other two guides in the back half, which looks like a misread rather than different shards — but we're flagging it because if you're following that video and coming up empty, this is why.

The reward

One recording shows on-screen text after the ninth shard:

"Reward: x2 Speed Treadmill"

The other two recordings show no reward text at all — one has the narrator claim something vaguer, which we're not repeating as fact.

So: a permanent 2× speed treadmill is what one source captured on screen. We can't corroborate it, and we'd rather tell you that than pretend three sources agreed.

Worth doing?

If the x2 Speed Treadmill is right, yes — comfortably. Speed is the entire progression currency in this game, and a permanent doubling is worth far more than any single tail upgrade you can buy at that stage of the game.

The collection also takes you through Stages 1–9 of World 1, which you need to clear anyway for rebirths.
