WinMinigame Surprise BoxIndependence Spaceship
  • Minigame Surprise Boxfor a new personal best (your first score counts) - one box a day at most, across all the minigames
  • Independence Spaceshipfor the Gold medal (reach level 8) - a flying saucer to wear on your back, once
  • Finish the week in the top 3: 10, 6 or 3 Arcade Tokens, to spend at the Prize Counter (Artie, in the Lobby): a trophy of each minigame for your home, the minigame auras and more.
  • Earn a medal: 5, 10 or 15 gems, once each.
  • Do today’s challenge: 10 gems, once a day.
  • Do a feat: 10 gems, once each.
  • On a computer: the left and right arrows turn your ship (A and D work too). The up arrow (or W) pushes you the way you point, the down arrow (or S) pushes you backwards. Hold Space to shoot - or press F and your ship shoots by itself.
  • On a phone: put a finger on the screen and your ship turns to it and flies there. Or use the buttons: two on the left to turn, an engine and a brake on the right. Your ship shoots by itself.
  • Your ship keeps gliding when you let go, and bounces off the edges of the screen.
  • Shoot a rock and it breaks into two smaller ones. The smallest rocks just disappear. From level 4, darker rocks need two hits.
  • Blast every rock to clear the level. The first levels have 1 big rock, then 2, 3 and at last 4 at once, from different sides.
  • The top of the screen shows the rocks left, a star while you have not lost a ship, and the level’s 3 UFOs.
  • UFOs come as you clear rocks, not as time passes. A yellow arrow shows where one will fly in. Shoot it down quickly: the next one only comes if the sky is free.
  • From level 5 the third UFO is a small, fast one (a red arrow warns you). It aims where you are going, so keep changing direction.
  • A UFO you shoot down may leave a power for a few seconds. Fly over it: S is a shield, 3 a triple shot, Z slows the rocks, + is an extra ship.
  • Once a level a gold rock crosses the screen for 8 seconds. It cannot hurt you. Shoot it!
  • Every 5th level, when the rocks are gone, Munidark’s purple saucer comes. Its health bar is at the top. It fires three shots at a time: keep moving and keep shooting.
  • A rock, a UFO, the saucer or one of their shots destroys your ship. You have 3 ships, and you win one more every 10,000 points (5 at most). A new ship flickers for a moment: nothing can hurt it yet.
  • Need a break? Press the pause button at the top left of the window, or the P key. The game also pauses by itself if you switch to another window.

Scoring

  • Rocks: 10 points for the biggest, then 20, 40 and 80 for the smallest. One big rock and all its pieces make 850 points.
  • 200 points for each UFO you shoot down - 500 for the small fast one.
  • 500 points for the gold rock.
  • 1,000 points for Munidark’s saucer.
  • Clear a level without losing a ship: 250 more.
  • Clear a level fast: a time bonus. It starts at 300 points for each big rock of the level and loses 5 points every second.

Two players, the same game at the same time. What you clear makes trouble for the other player. No XP, gems or high scores: just the win - and a wager, if you both agree to one.

  • To start: press Duel a player on the game’s title and wait for the next player who does the same. Or open a player’s menu, press Play, and pick this game’s Duel. They get a card to accept or decline.
  • Both of you get exactly the same waves, and a 3 second countdown.
  • Shoot down a UFO and 1 Munidark stone goes to the other player. Clear a level: 1 big stone. Clear a boss level: 2 big stones.
  • An arrow shows the edge a stone comes in from, 1.5 seconds before it does. Stones give no points and hold no wave up.
  • Anything on its way to you is cancelled first by what you send back ("Blocked!"). The rest comes in after a short warning.
  • Lose your last ship and you lose (if both do, the first one loses).
  • After 4 minutes the higher score wins (the same score is a draw).
  • Leave, close the window or stay away for 15 seconds, and you lose. A duel never pauses.
  • The other player’s window is drawn small beside yours, with their score. Press Duel again for a rematch.
  • A wager can ride on a challenge from a player’s menu (not on the title’s queue). The winner takes it. Your solo scores, medals and week board are not touched.
  • Press the gold trophy at the top left of the game’s window. It shows two boards: This week and All time.
  • This week: your best score since Monday. The board starts empty every Monday, so everyone has a new chance.
  • When the week ends, the top 3 win Arcade Tokens: 10 for 1st, 6 for 2nd, 3 for 3rd.
  • Spend them at the Prize Counter: press Prize Counter under the boards, or talk to Artie in the Lobby. It has the Minigame Surprise Box, a trophy for every minigame to put in your home, and every minigame aura.

Get far enough in one game and you earn a medal, with gems. Each medal gives its gems once.

  • Bronze5 gemsReach level 3.
  • Silver10 gemsReach level 5.
  • Gold15 gemsReach level 8. Gold also gives you the Independence Spaceship.

Every day there is one small goal. Do it and you get 10 gems. Tomorrow there is a new one. It is one of these:

  • Reach level 3 in one game.
  • Score 8,000 points in one game.
  • Finish 3 games.
  • Blast 60 rocks in one day.
  • Shoot down 5 UFOs in one day.
  • Clear 3 levels in one day without losing a ship.
  • Your ship in the game takes the colour of your best medal: bronze, silver or gold.

Three things to pull off. Each one gives 10 gems, once. The trophy at the top left of the game’s window shows which you have.

  • UFO hunter10 gemsShoot down all 3 UFOs of one level.
  • Untouchable10 gemsClear 3 levels in a row without losing a ship.
  • Rock breaker10 gemsBlast 500 rocks in all, over as many games as you need.
  • The levels never end: each one is a little harder.
  • Your avatar waits in the room while you play; the others see a game controller over you.
  • Every game is checked by the island's server: a score that doesn't add up isn't counted.
