This tool lets you add a rating system for players in your project. When you turn on this feature, players will see a timer keeping track of their time. Once a game is finished, users will see a list of players organized by their fastest times.
This function is supported only for PRO+ and higher subscription levels.
Leaderboards are supported for the following games:
Memory Game
Hidden Objects
Puzzle
Find a Pair
Matching Game
Sliding Puzzle
Crossword
While users can view their time after each game, only the best time will be recorded in the leaderboard.
Let's explore how you can set up a leaderboard for your game using the Memory game as an example. Once you are in the editor, click anywhere in the working space to reveal the additional features panel on the right side of your screen.
To initiate the leaderboard, activate the "Enable Player Ratings" box; this setting must be active.
Specify the number of attempts, indicating the allowed number of tries for the user to play the game.
This setting is linked to the user's browser, enabling a reset only if they switch to a different browser.
You can also set links to service policies, which users must agree to before entering the game.
Here is an example of what this setting might look like:
Accept our <a href="https://acme-corp-example.com" target="_blank">Terms of use</a>
Additionally, you may choose to request the user's email before the game starts by checking the "Ask User Email" box.
Now, publish the game and observe how it functions.
Before starting the game, the user should enter their nickname, which will be displayed in the leaderboard. If you checked the "Ask User Email" box, they should also provide their email.
After the game concludes, the results will be showcased on the leaderboard screen.
Please note that you can always check the leaderboard in the "Statistics/Leads" section. To do this, click on the "Statistics/Leads" button in the "My Project" tab.
Navigate to the Memory tab.
You'll find the leaderboard displaying the best results for the game.
If you wish to initiate a new rating, click on "Start a New Rating." A new leaderboard will be created for your game, and player progress will reset. This can be beneficial if you want to start a new competition daily.
Keep in mind that the previous leaderboard will be frozen, and no changes can be made to it.
