The Arcade and Trophy Room

Arcade shop

Spend coins on Pixel Quest, Neon Marquee and Constellation frames, and Laurel wreath, Orbit ring and Gem crown avatar decorations. Preview any item on your own artwork or picture without changing what you're using. Every purchase asks you to confirm the item, price and balance afterwards, then offers Equip now or Keep for later.

• Bought items are yours for good and never need buying again.
• Filter by frames, avatar decorations or what you own.
• Not enough coins, a changed price or a connection problem is always shown clearly, and no coins are taken.
• Cosmetics only: nothing in the shop changes how games play, and coins can't be bought with money.

Coins from play

2048, Flutter, Snake, Fruit Slice and Tower Stacker pay coins for runs that reach a minimum score and length, with more for better scores up to a limit per run. Solving a Sudoku pays 20, 35 or 60 coins by difficulty. Each run or puzzle pays once, even after a reload, and play pays at most 600 coins in any 24 hours. Coins are counted from now on; earlier games don't pay retroactively.

• The result card shows the coins earned, or why a run didn't qualify.
• The shop lists the earning rules and your recent coin history.

Shop items in your settings

Frames you own appear in Artwork frames and in each entry's frame choice, alongside the free frames and No frame. Avatar decorations are chosen in Profile and are drawn around your picture without changing it.

Medal cabinet

Every achievement is a layered medal with a metal rim, enamel face and engraved icon.

• Arcade, Archive and Discovery each have their own shape and color.
• Earned medals shine; locked ones rest in dark iron with their goal still readable.
• The header shows overall completion and progress per group.
• The earned, in-progress, group and game filters are still available.

Medal details

Select any medal by click, tap or keyboard to see it up close: a larger badge, its description, the exact goal, your progress and the date and time you earned it.

• Earned medals have Replay celebration, which plays the unlock again without changing anything.

Unlock celebrations

A new medal assembles, catches the light and gives off a brief burst of sparks, then settles into a notification with View achievement and Dismiss.

• Several unlocks queue one after another.
• It never takes focus and waits while you type or play.
• It follows your Motion setting and reduced-motion preference, with no sound and no flashing.

Achievements on Home

An Achievements link sits beside Arcade at the bottom of Home and shows how many medals you have earned.

Achievements

Achievements recognize what you do across the six Arcade games, workspace notes and checklists, collection customization, templates, Showcase and the 3D artwork viewer.

• Progress is based on saved archive state and completed game runs.
• Earned achievements stay earned if you later change or remove the content that proved them.
• There are no rewards, currencies, levels or feature unlocks.

Your progress

All milestones are grouped into Arcade, Archive and Discovery.

• Filter to all, earned or in-progress achievements, and narrow Arcade milestones by game.
• Single-run challenges show your best qualifying run or streak.
• Earned milestones include their date.

Unlock notifications

New unlocks appear in a small queued notification when you are not typing or playing. Turning notifications off doesn’t stop milestone tracking.

• Customize Home has an earned-achievements section, hidden until you turn it on.

The Arcade

Six quick games, each with a preview, a Play button and your personal record. Every game follows your theme, has Back to Arcade and Home links, and can go full screen.

2048

Slide tiles with the arrow keys, WASD or a swipe. Matching tiles merge once per move, and a new tile appears only after a move that changes the board. Reach 2048 to win, then keep going or start over.

Flutter

Tap, click or press Space to keep a little gem-bird flying through gaps between crystal pillars. Touching a pillar or the ground ends the run, and a tap starts the next one right away.

Snake

Steer with the arrow keys or WASD, swipe on the board, or use the on-screen pad on touch screens. Eat to grow and speed up; walls and your own tail end the run. You can’t reverse straight into yourself, and the speed is the same on every screen.

Sudoku

Easy, Medium and Hard puzzles, each with exactly one solution.

• Type or tap digits, add pencil notes (Notes mode or Shift+digit), erase and undo.
• Conflicts are highlighted, and givens can’t be changed.
• Placing a digit clears that note from the same row, column and box.
• The timer runs only while you play, and your fastest time is kept for each difficulty.
• Values, notes and time are saved as you play, so you can continue later, even on another device.
• Starting a new puzzle asks first if the current one isn’t finished.

Fruit Slice

Drag the mouse or swipe through flying fruit. Slicing three or more in one quick swipe earns a combo bonus. Missing 3 fruit ends the run, and slicing a bomb (dark, with a red cross) ends it instantly.

Tower Stacker

Click, tap or press Space to drop the sliding block. Only the part that overlaps the block below stays. Perfect drops keep the full width, and three or more in a row widen the block again. The camera follows your tower as it grows.

Personal records

Records for every game are saved to your account and shown on each game and in the Arcade. There are no leaderboards; only you see your scores.

Arcade hall

Each game sits in its own cabinet with a lit title, its artwork on a screen, your records and a Play button. A prize counter at the top shows your coins and leads to the shop. Cabinets light up on hover and hold still when animations are reduced or off.

Home marquee

The Arcade link on Home is now a compact ARCADE sign with tiny game artwork and your coin balance. A short light sweep plays when you point at it, and it stays still when motion is reduced. Achievements stays right next to it.

Settings changes

Achievements no longer appear in the Settings sidebar; open them from Home, the Arcade or a direct link.

• The celebrations toggle moved to a new Notifications group in Settings → General, and your existing choice is kept.

Pausing and sound

Games stay out of the way when you step away.

• Action games and the Sudoku timer pause when you switch tabs or windows, and P or the Pause button pauses them yourself.
• Sound effects start only after you interact, and the speaker button mutes them across the Arcade.
• Decorative effects follow your animation setting and reduced-motion preference.

Game keys

While you play, keys such as the arrows and Space control the game instead of scrolling the page or triggering archive shortcuts. Everything works as before once you leave the game.
