If this doesn't belong here let me know, because I couldn't decide where was the right place for this and I kinda don't wanna make multiple posts.
So remember when we had that like Tubular Tiles game that was mahjong? Can we bring that back, PLEASE? I really liked it and it was a good way to destress on this site while earning sP instead of mindless questing.
And I know I brought this up before, but can something please be done about Caliph's Tomb game? It's too small to see without zooming in and that's ridiculous it hasn't been fixed in the years it's been on this site, and I know I'm not the only to bring this up again.
Can we also have some Solitaire or Spider Solitaire, and some sP back on 2024?

I think the mahjong game was Tubular Tiles - it was taken off because of some bug which has never been fixed.
I agree that games are an entertaining way of earning sP but some of them really need better payouts - Flight Simulator is a lot of work for very little reward once you've got the achievment. Meanwhile 2048 pays out nothing at all so it's annoying when Major Drills asks us to play it.
Thank you, I made sure to edit that in my post :) I think there was a bug, but I just had to refresh and it was fine, unless it was something else. I really miss that game, and would like it back.
I agree that there should be better payouts for games, especially as some of them require two hands to play, and sometimes I can't use one hand, or some of the games like Burrero Basket Bonanza and Cybill Sledding (I don't know if there are any more) give me something like Motion Aftereffect (MAE) and those have higher payouts.

There's also an achievement for Tubular Tiles - "Gimme Some Fin Complete timed games of Tubular Tiles!" This is impossible to achieve for anyone who didn't manage it before the game was removed from the site. I remembered Pirate Panic is fun but I can't play it now because I've got a mini keyboard which doesn't have a number pad. This also has an achievement - "I Got Spirit, How Bout You? Complete waves of spirit attacks in Pirate Panic in a single game."
Another impossible to achieve game achievement is - "Are You Not Entertained?! Squash bugs in Bug Guy Joe's game (cumulative)." The lack of bugs in the game was reported on 06/25/20 and it's still broken.
As for awful payouts, I decided to have a go at Gravedigger on Hard and won all of 19 sP. My second go on Hard resulted in 18 sP.
Thank you for this one as well. Status and answers as well as follow-up questions are likely to be posted in the Achievements brainstorming thread, but I have it on the list.

@/Ciannwn The payouts to make no sense for Gravedigger at all.
First, you have to get the bottom to get more than 18/19 sP but other than an achievement (I think?), hard is just a waste of time. I've gotten to the bottom at couple of times on hard and never got more than like, 3k.
On the other hand, getting to the bottom on easy got me almost 5k.
You expect hard to have the higher reward because it's more difficult to beat but it doesn't work that way. At all.
Yeah, Gravedigger is kinda fun but I never get over 3k.

yeah... I remember Gravedigger not being that good for earning sP.
I think Matal's Jewels is okay depending on far you get.
[tot=PiplupMagby34]
Nope. I play it because I like it enough but the payout is pretty bad. The only thing it really has going for it so the sheer amount of achievements attached to it.
Matal's Jewels is pretty alright. You're looking at 20kish around level 7 or 8. I also like Burrero Basket but that's one of those games that's not great to play a lot of in one sitting due to the nature of it.
I agree getting nothing from 2024 kind of makes me feel cheated... like is the hustler running the game or something?
also some games the pay is terrible in comparison or just how long one game may take to hit a payout cap which can be also low seems to me like in particular some games feel like more work/time for a smaller reward or the reward just seems lacking for the time commitment im looking at you street team payout is fine but the time needed to max/cap payout for one game is long so doing 10 in a row to that degree is a good chuck of time with time to submit and start again more specifically it's at least 50+ minutes for max payout on 10 games
a bit unrelated but have you tried using some customCSS to make Caliph's Tomb bigger? Most likely not as nice as an official change but it can be a nice fix in the meantime at least, I put code below that expands the canvas for that game and realigns buttons for the new size (code has been tested it works)
, {
width: 100% !important;
}
.buttons .button { width: 50% !important; } NOTE: the default size is just a tad smaller than 82% so don't go below that value if 100% is too big
I didn't think about it before, but I tried that it and it works! Thank you so much. I do wish it didn't have to be CSS but it's better than nothing.

I don't really play the games anymore, but if they were fixed and had better SP, and if 2048 (which I only play for Drills quests because there is no other point to it once you get the achievement) gave SP in the first place, then they would be more appealing.
I think the games that work need to have a better payout plan to encourage people to play them.
Also, I wouldn't play 2048 on Subeta as it doesn't have a 4096 tile (and presumably no 8192 tile either). Two 2048s merge into another 2048 but that tile then behaves like 4096 tile by not merging with other 2048 tiles.
I had a couple of goes at Ziara Raceway on hard and got decent payouts even though I didn't finish the course. (I got the achievement for finishing on hard some years ago but am badly out of practise.)
I did this post in July in another theard:
"I know it is on list, but just to uptade how many mini games are off/broken 😢
The Bug Game (achievement) Stargazer Tubular Tiles (achievement) Item Drive"
I agree, some games give better sp payouts than others. I'd personally love games with lower payouts to get more, like Tiles or Dark Matter Dice. In the time it takes to do either, you could earn more playing games like Divine Discs.
It would also compensate for the loss of sP we used to get from games which are now broken.

Oh wow. That was a thing? Definitely concur.
