⚽MatchX Game
Overview
MatchX is a Prediction Mini Game where the operator can create a Game (e.g “Season”) with different Rounds, where each round will contain a set of matches (unlimited) the players will have to predict the correct score for.
Lobby - We've introduced a ‘Match X’ lobby, offering players the option to select from a variety of games. Once users enter a specific game, they can effortlessly return to the lobby by clicking the ‘Back’ button.
The matches can be comprised of different sports, different leagues, and different days.
Rounds - Every round has a prize pool, similar to Smartico Tournaments module, which can be Gamification Points, Bonuses, Spin on a Mini Game, or tangible items. At the end of each round, when the matches are settled and the round is resolved, the players receive the prizes based on their prediction and have clear visibility of the leaderboard.
Leaderboard - The Leaderboards tab provides real-time score updates. The list of ranked players is displayed, and players can click on any participant to access their predictions for the current round (if enabled)
Rules tab - In this section, operators have the option to input their Terms & Conditions, Rules, and any additional information they wish to communicate to players. This content should be populated from the BO within the game template.
Jackpot - The MatchX, like other Mini Games, offers a progressive jackpot as well. The jackpot is awarded to the player who predicts all correct scores of all the matches in a round. If 2 or more players predict the correct scores for the entire round, the jackpot will be evenly distributed between them.
To set up a MatchX, create a new Mini Game from the menu, and select type “Match X”
Please follow the guidelines in the Mini Games guide that cover all of the game configurations such as attempt costs, limitation of usage, segmentation, etc.
'Prize Pool' section
The prize list is populated automatically in the Prize Pool section in the following way:
To create the Prize Pool for the Season/Game, follow the steps of the Tournament Prize Pool guide.
Adding a banner to MatchX
You can add a banner to your MatchX instance by either uploading an image from your local machine (will be uploaded on CDN automatically) or by inserting a URL.
The image size should be 900x200, or with the same proportions, and will be automatically responsive for all devices.
Match X - Seasonal Ranking for games
You have the ability to enable Seasonal Ranking for Match X. When it is enabled the final leaderboard will be built based on the results of matches in all the rounds. The prizes will be issued when all rounds are resolved. For example, if only one round is resolved, and there are other rounds, that are not resolved, the prizes will not be issued.
It can be configured from the 'Enable seasonal ranking' drop-down on the game level (General), not on the rounds level.
Once it is enabled a new tab called 'Leaderboard (for season)' appears on the game template. This tab gives you information about the winners for the whole season, including all rounds.
Players can switch between the different leaderboards on the Gamification Widget as well. For example, you can create a Seasonal Ranking for the Champions League, starting with the preliminary round, then the qualifying rounds and play-off round. The rounds will be visible on the leaderboard, but the prizes will be issued to players when all rounds are resolved.
Hide ranking in Leaderboard
‘Hide ranking in Leaderboard’ gives you the option to hide the ranking of the players in the Leaderboards on a ‘Match X’ game. For example, if you have multiple players in the same position, and you don’t want it to be visible to the end user, you can now hide the ranking. It is applicable to both mobile and desktop.
