🏆 SUPER CYPHER : TOURNAMENT LEADERBOARD

SOLO 30 TEST • SERVER REPLAY VERIFICATION

LIVE TEST BOARD • REPLAY-VERIFIED RUNS • NO PRIZES

SOLO 30 TEST RULES

Verified wallet sign-in. Solo only. No buddy bot or online co-op. Fixed 30 lives, no extra-life awards. Standard difficulty. Three stages, pickup-earned weapons and normal pickups. Default operative. Rules stay locked for the run. The server replays your recorded controls to calculate the result. This verifies the simulation, not human input; automated play remains a separate competition-review concern.

Finish the campaign or exhaust your lives to submit. Only your latest started run can submit. Restarting or leaving forfeits an unfinished run. Scores receive consistency checks, not independent anti-cheat verification.
