Questions and answers

What is a short daily puzzle routine?

A short daily puzzle routine is a few minutes of varied challenges played at a regular time, like a crossword with your morning coffee. SkillArena's Daily Arena packages four different games into about four minutes, with a new mix each day.

What happens if I miss a day?

Nothing is lost. Your ratings, achievements and progress stay exactly where they were. SkillArena counts your current run of days but is designed around recovering, not punishment.

Is the Daily Arena the same every day?

No. The four games are chosen each day from your categories, with a rotating surprise slot. The mix repeats occasionally because the game library is finite, but the questions themselves are generated fresh.

How do game difficulty levels affect my score?

Harder rounds are worth more. A session's rating change weighs accuracy (70%), difficulty (20%) and pace (10%), and compares the result with what is expected at your current level, so easy wins barely move your rating.
