  • What's the difference between a Cup Tournament and a Ranking Tournament?
    In a cup tournament you play head to head against others in real-time. The winner(s) continues to the next round and play against other winners until there's just one left - the cup winner. If a player does not qualify for the next round, it is possible to participate again the same tournament with a new key code as long as the signing up has not closed.

    A ranking tournament is like a time trial: you play without an online opponent. Once you've finished the result is saved. At the end of the tournament the highest score/s wins!

     
  • If I win, how do I claim my prize?
    In every cash tournament you won , you will earn points that you can either remit for a virtual item in amped casual games such as tantra, frosmo and getamped. You can also choose a real world prize such as listed ( example bags, gadgets, phone etc). In that case we will contact you accordingly once we received your claim request.

    Contact the tournament administrator for more information.

     
  • I have joined a prize tournament but my browser does not support Flash. Can I get a refund?

  • How do I read the statistics page?
    Hall of Fame shows you the best of the best.

    Top Scores shows you the best time/score per level. You'll need to participate the special record tournaments to get a valid comparable result. Target score in this chart is like PAR in golf - the average hits/time it takes to complete a level. Your job is to beat the target score / time.
