How it works

Four steps to the top of the board.

  1. 01

    Practise for free

    Learn every game at no cost, as often as you like. Practice never touches the board.

  2. 02

    Play a ranked round

    Rounds start at R5. Each round gives you three ranked attempts, and your best one counts.

  3. 03

    Climb the board

    Our server replays and scores every attempt. Your rank updates as each score is confirmed.

  4. 04

    Top it at close

    The highest confirmed score when the league closes takes the prize and goes on the Wall of Fame.

First game

Ponte

Arts

Stack the floors of Joburg’s most famous tower. The slab swings from the crane and you choose the moment it drops. Land it true and it keeps its full width. Land it off the edge and the overhang falls away.

The real Ponte has 54 floors. Every ranked tower swings differently, so the only way up is a steady hand.

More games join the league one at a time, across Sport, Arts and Culture. Each one is tested for fair play before it opens.

Level 1

Floors 1 to 14

Level 2

Examples of the kind of prizes on offer. Every league shows its exact prize before you enter.

Fair play

Skill, proven on every attempt.

A prize league only works if every score is real. This is how we keep it that way.

The server keeps score

Your phone sends your taps. Our server replays them with the same game and works out the score. A number typed into a phone never counts.

A fresh attempt every time

Each ranked attempt is built new on our server, so there is no pattern to learn by heart. Every version is tested to be equally hard.

Bots get caught

Every ranked run is checked for timing a person can't produce. Anything flagged is held off the board until a person reviews it.

The same game on every phone

The game plays the same on an entry-level Android and the newest flagship, on any screen size, at any frame rate.

Winners are verified

We confirm who every winner is before a prize goes out. The biggest prizes are settled in a live playoff.

Rules up front

Every league shows its game, prize, close time and tiebreak before you pay for a round.
