Points
Points are awarded for completing various activities in War.app, including winning multiplayer games, winning Tournaments, completing single-player levels, and unlocking Achievements.
Points are used to gain Levels, which unlock additional features throughout the game.
You can view your points, level progress, and recent point awards at: https://war.app/Points
Hovering over a point award on that page will display additional details about how it was calculated.
Points from Single-Player Games
Built-in single-player levels award points the first time they are completed.
- Defeating a built-in level awards 2,500 points.
- Earning a gold star on a built-in level awards an additional 2,500 points.
- If you earn a gold star the first time you complete a level, the two rewards are combined into a single 5,000-point award.
Community-created levels do not award points.
Points from Multiplayer Games
When players win a ranked multiplayer game, they earn points.
The number of points awarded depends on several factors.
Number of Opponents Defeated
Points increase based on the number of players who did not win the game.
For example:
- Winning a 3-player free-for-all generally awards about twice as many points as winning a 1v1 game.
- Winning a 20-player free-for-all generally awards about nineteen times as many points as winning a 1v1 game.
Opponent Levels
Defeating higher-level opponents awards more points.
As a general guideline:
- Defeating a player of equal level awards roughly 5,000 base points.
- Defeating a player who is 10 or more levels above you awards roughly 10,000 base points.
- Defeating lower-level players awards fewer points.
Repeated Victories
To discourage farming points from the same opponents, repeated victories award fewer points.
For players above level 8:
- Defeating the same player a second time within 10 days reduces points earned from that player by 50%.
- Defeating the same player three or more times within 10 days reduces points earned from that player by 80%.
Team Games
In team games, points earned from defeated opponents are effectively shared among the winning team.
However, teammates may receive different point amounts due to differences in player level and recent match history against the defeated opponents.
Game-Type Multipliers
Some game modes modify the number of points awarded:
- Multi-day games: 100% (standard)
- Tournament games: 150%
- Ladder games: 200%
- Real-time games: 50%
- Coin games: 150%
These multipliers stack.
For example, a real-time coin tournament awards:
50% × 150% × 150% = 112.5%
of the points awarded by an equivalent standard multi-day game.
Points from Tournaments
Winning a ranked tournament also awards points.
Tournament points are based on many of the same factors as multiplayer games.
Tournament Size
Larger tournaments award more points.
For example, winning a 128-player tournament generally awards about twice as many points as winning a 64-player tournament.
Opponent Levels
Higher-level participants contribute more points.
As a general guideline:
- Each player of equal level contributes roughly 500 points.
- Each player who is 10 or more levels above you contributes roughly 1,000 points.
Repeated Tournament Victories
Tournament victories are tracked separately from game victories.
If you defeat the same opponent multiple times in tournaments within a 30-day period:
- The first victory awards full points.
- Subsequent victories award 80% fewer points from that player.
Team Tournaments
When a team wins a tournament, the points earned from defeated opponents are effectively shared among the winning team.
As with team games, individual teammates may receive different point totals based on level differences and recent tournament history.
Tournament Game Rewards
Tournament winners receive both:
- Points for winning the tournament itself.
- Points from the individual games played within the tournament.
