How To Play
If a player submits a wrong answer, all answer options are disabled for 2.5 seconds while the image zooms out to reveal more of the photo.
• Incorrect Answers reduce token rewards for each puzzle.
• Wrong answers result in lives lost, with the number of lives lost increasing with each incorrect answer.
Players can use lifelines to assist in solving puzzles without incurring penalties:
• Zoom: Zooms out to reveal more of the image (2.5second transition).
• Move: Shifts to a new section of the photo (instant effect).
• 50/50: Removes two incorrect options (instant effect).
• Lifelines cost tokens, but can also be obtained through in-game chests and the store at a discount.
Scores are determined by puzzle-solving speed. Faster solves yield higher scores.
• Puzzle Bonuses:
• 3 Puzzle Streak: Solve 3 puzzles consecutively under 5 seconds to earn a 1.5x score multiplier.
• 5 Puzzle Streak: Solve 5 puzzles consecutively under 4 seconds for a 2x score multiplier.
• 10 Puzzle Streak: Solve 10 puzzles consecutively under 3 seconds for a 3x score multiplier.
To appear on the daily leaderboard, players must complete a minimum of 10 puzzles.
• Leaderboard Score Calculation: A player's leaderboard score is the average score over their last 10 puzzles (Average Score Per Puzzle or “ASP”).
• Playing more puzzles increases opportunities to earn bonuses, boosting the ASP.
• Players can play as many puzzles as they like each day, but only the last 10 they play will be counted on the Leaderboard.
• Leaderboard scores are reset at midnight each day.
At the end of each day, in-game rewards are granted based on leaderboard rankings, including:
• Cash prizes (paid via PayPal once the balance reaches $5).
• In-game chests with tokens, lives, and items.
• To withdraw cash, players must provide a valid PayPal email address. Withdrawals are processed within 48 hours.
