Automatic Slot Tournaments - Start and Manage
A practical guide to automating slot tournaments: how to design schedules, scoring rules and prize money, build real-time leaderboards and anti-fraud, embed RG and A/B experiments. Service architecture, checklists, ready-made formulas, playbook and SRE practices.
How points are awarded in slot tournaments
We analyze the models of scoring in slot tournaments: multiplier, ranks, "best N attempts," diversity bonus, sprint metrics. We give ready-made formulas, examples of calculations, rules for bonus funds and jackpots, anti-fraud, UX practices and A/B checklist.
Calculation models: win-based, wager-based, multiplier
We analyze three key models of scoring in slot tournaments - by winning (win-based), by bet (wager-based) and by multiplier (multiplier). We give formulas, examples of calculations, pros/cons, when to choose which model, how to avoid pay-to-win, how to take into account bonus funds, and what metrics to monitor. At the end - checklists and ready-made rule templates.
How leaderboard and anti-cheat filters work
We analyze the work of leaderboards in iGaming: the flow of events → scoring → real-time aggregation → awarding. Let's show the anti-cheat layer: idempotency, deduplication, behavioral biometrics, connection graph, mouthguards and anomaly-detection. Plus UX patterns, RG rules, SRE practices and checklists.
Real-time ratings: technical architecture
How to design and operate ratings (leaderboards) with a delay of up to 200-300 ms: event flow, idempotent scoring, stream aggregation, sharding and cache, status snapshots, dealing with late events, multi-region and time/timezones. Plus: anti-fraud, RG, A/B experiments, SRE practices and launch checklists.
How to recognize overheated rules and distortions
A practical guide to finding and fixing distortions in tournaments and ratings: pay-to-win, pay-to-grind, jackpot dominance, dead divisions, bonus abuse, time zone and FX distortions. We give signals, control thresholds, dashboards, A/B approach, anti-fraud and instant rebalance playbook.
How to create a mission and quest system
A complete guide to building missions and quests in iGaming: typology and progression, XP formulas without pay-to-win, awards and P&L economics, UX patterns and localization, anti-fraud and Responsible Gaming, real-time architecture, CRM integration, KPI and A/B. Onboarding playbooks, weeks, seasons and winback.
Time Limit Missions: No Frustration Design
How to design time-limit missions in iGaming so that they drive engagement, not burnout: windows and "grace periods," partial offset and "pitty" counters, timezone fairness, anti-FOMO copyright, economic framework and RG. Out-of-the-box formulas, rule templates, metrics, and checklists.
Mission chains with increasing complexity
A step-by-step guide to designing mission chains with increasing complexity: progression curves and gates, fair XP formulas without pay-to-win, pit counters and checkpoints, reward and pacing economics, UX patterns and localization, anti-fraud and RG. Config patterns, quality metrics, and A/B approach.
Story missions and storytelling
A turn-based guide to creating story missions in iGaming: narrative arcs and acts, mission types, progression and choices, visual novel + gameplay, reward economics, localization, RG and anti-fraud. Playbooks, scene templates, quality metrics, and A/B approach for Retention and LTV growth.
Individual tasks for the player's profile
How to design personal tasks in iGaming: segmentation and profile features, selection of goals and rewards without RTP bias, fair formulas (multiplier + best N), guardrails for economics and RG, privacy and anti-fraud, real-time orchestration, KPI and A/B. Playbooks and ready-made rule templates.
Daily tasks and progress bar activity
How to design daily tasks and progress bar activity in iGaming: honest formulas without pay-to-win, steps and checkpoints, reward and pacing economics, UX patterns and localization, RG and anti-fraud, real-time architecture, KPI and A/B. Playbooks, rule templates, and launch checklists.
XP and Level System: The Economics of Progression
A complete guide to designing an XP system and levels in iGaming: how to set a progression curve without pay-to-win, calculate the reward economy (RewardRate), adjust the pace (pacing), make UX transparent and not frustrating. Formulas, KPI calibration, anti-fraud and RG, real-time architecture, metrics and A/B plan.
Achievements as a retention tool
A practical guide to creating an achievement system in iGaming: why they are needed, how to design honest conditions without pay-to-win, connect with missions/levels, set up an award economy, avoid frustration and abuse. Real-time architecture, RG and anti-fraud, KPI, A/B checklist, templates and playbooks.
Intangible rewards: badges, frames, effects
How to design a system of intangible rewards - badges, avatar frames and visual effects - so that they increase motivation, increase retention and social status of players without burning out the economy and spam. Practice patterns, metrics, anti-abuse, and implementation checklists.
