I wasted 5,000 coins on Summon Anomaly thinking it would help me practice. It just made the game harder. Don’t be me.
Corruptions in Scary Shawarma Kiosk are power-ups you buy from the Corruption Shop during your shift. Some are game-changers. Some are literally useless unless you’re trolling friends. After burning through coins on every corruption, here’s what’s actually worth buying.
Quick Tier List
| Tier | Corruptions |
|---|---|
| S | Show Anomaly, Internal Control |
| A | Corruption Deal |
| B | Summon Anomaly |
| C | Dance For Friends, Scare a Friend |
S Tier - Buy These First
Show Anomaly
| Cost | Effect |
|---|---|
| 1,000 coins / 19 Robux | Reveals which customer is the anomaly |
The best corruption in the game. Period.
Activates an internal scanner that highlights anomalous customers. No more guessing. No more squinting at CCTV trying to spot subtle tells. The anomaly just… glows.
At 1,000 coins, it’s also the cheapest corruption. You can afford this after a few shifts. I run this every single game now. It’s basically cheating.
Why S Tier: Eliminates all guesswork. Works for beginners learning patterns AND experienced players who want faster detection. Universal value in every shift.
Internal Control
| Cost | Effect |
|---|---|
| 5,000 coins / 29 Robux | Clears all mistakes when inspector is almost out |
The most powerful effect in the game. Made mistakes? Served an anomaly? Forgot the soda rule? Internal Control erases everything like it never happened.
The timing matters though. It only works when the inspector is almost finished with their check. You can’t just pop it whenever.
Expensive at 5,000 coins, but worth every coin when it saves a run that would otherwise end in termination.
Why S Tier: Can save runs that are completely doomed. One button press = all mistakes erased. The ultimate safety net.
A Tier - Very Good
Corruption Deal
| Cost | Effect |
|---|---|
| 3,500 coins / 25 Robux | Pass any inspection regardless of mistakes |
Guarantees you pass the inspection no matter how badly you messed up. Similar to Internal Control but simpler to use since there’s no timing requirement.
The downside? It only works for inspections. Internal Control clears mistakes entirely, which helps throughout the entire shift. Corruption Deal is more situational.
Still solid though. If you struggle specifically with inspections, this is your corruption.
Why A Tier: Simpler than Internal Control but less versatile. Great for inspection anxiety, less useful for general survival.
B Tier - Situational
Summon Anomaly
| Cost | Effect |
|---|---|
| 3,500 coins / 29 Robux | Forces difficult events like inspections, fog, etc. |
This makes the game harder. On purpose.
Why would you want that? Practice. If you’re trying to learn specific mechanics like fog events or rapid anomaly spawns, Summon Anomaly forces them to happen.
For everyone else? Skip it. You’re paying 3,500 coins to reduce your survival chances. That’s backwards.
Why B Tier: Only useful for experienced players seeking extra challenge or practicing specific mechanics. Actively hurts your survival otherwise.
C Tier - Skip These
Dance For Friends
| Cost | Effect |
|---|---|
| 2,000 coins / 29 Robux | Triggers dancing screamer for friends |
Zero gameplay benefits. Doesn’t help survival at all. Only works in multiplayer.
It’s a prank item. You spend 2,000 coins to scare your friends with a dancing screamer. That’s it. That’s the whole corruption.
Fun once? Maybe. Worth 2,000 coins? Absolutely not.
Why C Tier: No survival value. Multiplayer-only. Pure meme purchase.
Scare a Friend
| Cost | Effect |
|---|---|
| 2,000 coins / 19 Robux | Triggers screamer for a friend |
Same as Dance For Friends but with a regular screamer instead of dancing variant.
Identical problems. No gameplay benefit. Multiplayer-only. Waste of coins.
Why C Tier: Literally the same as Dance For Friends. Lowest priority purchase in the game.
What to Buy First
If you’re new: Show Anomaly (1,000 coins). Cheapest, most useful, helps you learn anomaly patterns while keeping you alive.
If you’re struggling with inspections: Corruption Deal (3,500 coins). Guarantees you pass no matter what.
If you want a safety net: Internal Control (5,000 coins). Expensive but can save completely doomed runs.
If you want challenge: Summon Anomaly (3,500 coins). Only after you’ve mastered the base game.
If you want to troll friends: Dance For Friends or Scare a Friend. But honestly, save your coins.
Corruption Shop Access
The shop icon appears in the top-left corner after you enter the kiosk. You can only access it during your shift, not from the main menu.
Prices are in coins (earned by playing) or Robux (real money). Coins are easy to farm, so I’d recommend saving Robux for cosmetics.
My Loadout
After 50+ shifts, I run Show Anomaly every game. The 1,000 coin cost is nothing, and it makes detection trivial.
For late game (Day 30+), I add Internal Control as backup. The combination of instant anomaly detection plus mistake erasure makes survival almost guaranteed.
Never bought the prank corruptions. Never will.
