Key Points
- Rankings are sorted by best completion time for each difficulty and mode combination. Only your single best solve counts.
- Score/s measures your score divided by solve time - a higher value means faster, more efficient merging.
- Efficiency is the percentage of your clicks that were necessary - higher efficiency means fewer wasted moves - every swipe should advance a merge.
- The Standard leaderboard allows all legal play styles. No-Guessing is a separate category for boards that were fully solvable without guessing.
- Rankings reset each season - the leaderboard shows this season's top times only. Past season results are archived.
How to Improve Your Rank
1
Focus on one difficulty. Mastering a single difficulty (Beginner to start, Expert for veterans) produces faster time improvements than spreading effort across all three. Consistency on one board size builds pattern recognition far quicker.
2
Improve your Score/s, not just your time. Score/s is the more honest measure of skill because it normalises for board randomness. A lower time on an easy board can still have a poor Score/s. Aim to increase Score/s over time, and better times will follow.
3
Chase No-Guessing records separately. No-Guessing boards are fully logical - the skill ceiling is different and the player pool is smaller. If you are a logical solver, this category may offer a path to a higher rank percentile.
4
Submit through official gameplay only. Only games completed through the ranked play mode are recorded here. Practice mode runs do not count toward the leaderboard.
Pro Tips
- High efficiency matters more than raw speed at the top. The fastest players typically have 90 %+ efficiency - every click counts.
- Check both Standard and No-Guessing tabs for your rank. Many players rank significantly better in one mode - knowing your comparative strength helps decide where to compete for season rewards.
- Submit a time before the season ends. Season rewards go to the top-ranked players at the cutoff - a single ranked solve secures your season placement even if it is not a personal best.
