Active hours in Mini-games
We’ve introduced a new Active Hours setting for mini-games, allowing you to control exactly when players can play during the day.

You can set a start time and an end time for the game:
Before the start time → The game will still appear in the UI, but players won’t be able to play. If they try, an error message will inform them that the game isn’t available yet.
Once the start time is reached → The game becomes available and players can play it until the end time.
After the end time → The game becomes restricted again until the next start time is reached.

The Active Hours option is disabled by default, meaning the game has no time restrictions unless explicitly set. This option can be combined with the Date Restriction setting for even more control. For example: If you set the Start Date to 05.05.2025 and the End Date to 30.05.2025, with Active Hours from 08:00 AM to 10:00 PM, the mini-game will:
Be visible in the UI from 05.05.2025 to 30.05.2025
Be playable daily only between 08:00 AM and 10:00 PM
Be unavailable outside those hours (10:00 PM – 08:00 AM), even though it remains visible
Supported mini-games:
Spin the Wheel
Scratch Card
