Consider using hidden achievements to prevent spoilers in your game and to surprise and delight players. You can also create hidden achievements, which only appear once completed. Players see achievements as locked, in progress, or completed. You decide which achievements are relevant to your game and worth offering to your players. AchievementsĪchievements are special milestones that indicate when a player has successfully reached a particular goal in your game. You can use one or both leaderboard types in your game. Use recurring leaderboards for timed live events - for example, to show the most matches won in a week.
Recurring leaderboards are short lived and expire, then repeat after a set time, such as daily, monthly, or weekly. Use these to showcase scoring for overall or lifetime events, such as all-time number of matches won or the shortest time taken to complete a level. Classic leaderboards are ongoing and maintain a player’s score forever. You can even create a friends-only leaderboard in your custom UI. Players see how they rank among global players, as well as their Game Center friends. Leaderboards let players participate in new competitions within your game and challenge other players to beat their score.
