Pick the kind of challenge you enjoy
Hard Money Heroes is a survival shooter: movement, aim and the space around you all matter. Chikun’s Escape is an endless runner built around timing and reading the next obstacle. STACKED is a falling-block puzzle where the next placement changes the choices available after it.
All three have Free Mode. Start there to learn the controls and find a comfortable audio and effects setup. You do not need a wallet to play Free, and a Free result does not become a Ranked result later.
Hard Money Heroes: make room to move
Choose HMH if you like responding to pressure from several directions. Keep an escape route visible while you aim. A tempting pickup can wait until the approach is clear; a narrow gap is much less forgiving once enemies reach it.
The weapon you carry changes how you use that space. Read its ammo and reload state before committing to a crowded route. Learn the dodge and grenade controls in Free Mode so they are familiar when a run gets busy.
Chikun’s Escape: read ahead
Choose Chikun if you prefer a focused timing challenge. Keep your eyes ahead of the character, rather than following each coin. Watch the obstacle’s shape and the space around it before deciding when to jump.
A short run is useful practice. On the next attempt, change one timing decision and see whether it gives you a cleaner approach.
STACKED: leave yourself options
Choose STACKED if you enjoy planning under pressure. Use the landing guide and next-piece preview together. HOLD can preserve a useful piece, but it cannot repair every awkward placement.
Keep the top of the board open. The rising ledger makes spare room valuable even when a large clear looks close.
When you want a leaderboard result
Open the cabinet’s mode selector and choose Ranked. Read the entry confirmation before starting. Ranked currently uses the LitVM LiteForge testnet; its test tokens have no monetary value. The Ranked guide explains the wallet, entry and verification steps.
