How a match works from start to finish
Step
When you join, you wait in the lobby until the match begins. Minigames then start in sequence — the order is randomized each time, so you will face a different lineup every run. Clear each minigame's goal and you advance; fail and you're eliminated. The last players standing win the jackpot.
- Join the lobby wait here until the match kicks off.
- Read the rules each minigame shows its instructions before it starts; read them before moving.
- Clear the goal meet whatever the minigame requires to avoid being eliminated.
- Watch the order because the sequence is random, be ready for any game to come up next.
- Reach the end surviving every round makes you a jackpot contender.

- Lights Out — a lighting-based minigame.
- Hide and Seek — concealment is the focus.
- Jump Rope — a rope-jumping minigame.

When something goes wrong
TipsConnection issues and rule confusion are the two most frequent reasons players struggle.
- If the game feels laggy or stuttery, check your internet connection.
- If you did not catch the rules in time, leave the lobby and rejoin; the instructions will display again at the start of the next run.
- If controls stop responding, test them before the next minigame begins.
