How do you play the Chipotle Vault game?

Chipotle fans know good and well that the Vault game goes hand in hand with the brand’s National Burrito Day sale. And with the game’s third year, consumers are excited to explore the possibilities.

Typically, the game tasks players with guessing hourly burrito combinations. As a result, players who are successful can unlock a slew of prizes. However, the brand has decided to switch things up in its third year. Double Protein Hour is now added into the fold, and allows players to score double the prize amount. In other words, the stakes are high, and this only occurs once during the day.

Per Chipotle, “Entrants must attempt to correctly guess the correct combination of burrito ingredients (the “combo”). Each entrant will have up to four attempts to submit a guess (each, a “guess”).”

After a player submits a guess, “The website will display a message on screen to indicate which elements of the combo are correct and which are incorrect.”

Chipotle Vault game players have a chance to win amazing prizes.

Per Chipotle, playing the Vault game is worth it. Prizes include the chance to win free burritos for a year, a BOGO entree, or a free double protein.

That said, it’s important to note that the first player to unlock the vault each hour during regular gameplay wins free burritos for a year. Next, 3,600 BOGOs will be awarded, followed by 2,000 double protein rewards.

However, things differ during the Double Protein Hour. The brand shares that the first two players to unlock the vault will win free double-protein burritos for a year. Next, 7,200 double protein BOGOs will be awarded, and 4,000 double protein rewards.

Although not everyone can be minted a winner, folks can still enjoy some savings on National Burrito Day. Digital orders will qualify for a $0 delivery fee.

So, if you’re feeling lucky, try your hand at the game and see if you can be declared a winner.
