What Remote Buy does
Remote Buy removes travel time between upgrade buttons. Press the yellow Remote Buy button on your HUD to open a purchase menu — essential for deep endgame when buildings span the full map.
How to unlock Remote Buy
Two paths exist in Sell Lemons:
- Free: ~1 Trigintillion Alien Investors, usually around Evolution 6.
- Robux: 459 Robux for instant unlock on the powers board.
- Buy from the green Powers board after meeting investor requirements.
Remote Buy vs other powers
Remote Buy is convenience, not raw income. Earlier powers like Manage, Run Faster, and Stack Upgrade fix friction in midgame. Expert Picker boosts map pickups. Prioritize income multipliers and Forever Purchase before spending investors on Remote Buy unless you play very actively.
Reset rules: Evolution and Ascension
Powers bought with investors reset on Evolution and Ascension. Remote Buy unlocked for free is lost after Ascension. The Robux-purchased Remote Buy persists — check the in-game powers screen before ascending.
When to skip Remote Buy
Skip early investor spending on Remote Buy if Forever Purchase on 42× Global Cash is available — that upgrade affects every future run. Remote Buy shines when you rebuild often and hate walking between hill and space zones.
