How this works

  • Each difficulty is scored independently. Solve one, two or all three — there is no bonus for finishing them all, and no requirement to.
  • The most any round can pay is 6 points.
  • One attempt per difficulty per round. Finishing or failing one settles it until the next event opens.
  • Failing Medium does not stop you playing Easy or Hard.
  • Competition puzzles are separate from the season pool, and playing them never touches your season puzzle cooldown.
