  • 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.
  • The arrow keys move your swimmer (on a phone: the arrow pad).
  • Swim out from the edge to lay a rope of buoys; reach the edge again to close off that part of the sea.
  • Trap every jellyfish, or close off 75% of the sea (1% more each level, up to 90%), to clear the level.
  • A jellyfish touching your rope while you lay it stings you. You have 3 lives.
  • On a phone you can also slide your finger on the sea to pick the way to swim. Tap to stop.

Scoring

  • 100 points for each jellyfish trapped, and 50 more for every other one caught with it.
  • Clearing a level: 2,000 points, plus a time bonus (1,000, minus 10 for every second).
  • Clear a level without a single sting: 500 more.

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 sea and jellyfish, and a 3 second countdown.
  • Close a rope round 2 jellyfish and 1 jellyfish goes to the other sea; 3 or more sends 2. Clear a level: 2 jellyfish, and 1 more if you were never stung.
  • They come in 3 seconds after they reach you, away from your rope and swimmer, and they cannot sting for the first second.
  • 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 life and you lose (if both do, the first one loses).
  • After 5 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 sea 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.
  • The numbers over the sea show how much you have closed off, and how much the level asks for: 62% / 75%.
  • Your rope turns red when a jellyfish is close to it. Hurry back to the edge!
  • 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.

From level 2 something floats in the sea. Close it off with your rope to take it.

  • Life ring+1 lifeIt shows up when you have lost a life. Take it to get the life back.
  • Hourglass5 secondsThe jellyfish freeze and turn blue. They cannot move or sting, so lay your rope fast.
  • 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 6.

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 4 in one game.
  • Score 10,000 points in one game.
  • Finish 3 games.
  • Catch 25 jellyfish in one day.
  • 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.
