About Chilli Con Valley
Chilli Con Valley is an indie adventure where you steer a sweet bean toward a chilli‑con‑carne pot, racing to set the fastest personal time on each level. The game’s bright graphics and multiple stages invite players to experiment with routes and improve their speed.
While racing, players can gather Knesti Tech Coins scattered across the maps. These coins let you purchase extra maps and a selection of humorous dances, adding a collectible side to the time‑trial focus.
01 / THE GUIDE
Bean Race Mechanics
The core activity is moving the bean from its start point to the chilli‑con‑carne pot as quickly as possible. Each level acts as a parcourse, and faster completions replace previous best times.
No explicit win condition beyond speed is described, so players are free to test different entry points, shortcuts, or movement patterns to shave seconds off their runs.
- Try starting from alternative positions on a map to discover shorter routes.
- Watch where the bean slows and look for terrain that lets you maintain momentum.

Knesti Tech Coins
Coins are placed throughout each map and can be collected while you race. The currency is named after the YouTuber Knesti Tech and accumulates in a player‑owned wallet.
Collected coins may be spent on new maps, which increase in price, and on a variety of dances that can be triggered during play.
- Plan routes that pass near clusters of coins without adding excessive distance.
- Balance coin hunting with speed goals to avoid overly long runs.
