The cabinets are lit. The soundtrack is rolling. Your next high score is waiting.
Hard Money Heroes, Chikun’s Escape, STACKED and Tower of Power are all playable now at Lester’s Arcade. Our latest release, 2.3.4, builds on a series of visual and gameplay updates: richer worlds, improved character movement, brighter effects and a new brawler to sink your fists into.
Here’s what’s waiting when you step up to each cabinet.
Hard Money Heroes: keep moving, keep firing
The Litecoin Frontier has been getting a serious makeover. Recent updates bring 3D heroes, enemies and bosses, more varied trees and forest detail, improved terrain and water, and further work on how your survivor moves through the world.
The latest release improves the blend between movement, aiming and combat, including smoother returns from actions into your running animation. Lit Valkyrie’s character-selection fix is also live, so selecting her brings the right hero into the fight.
Ranged enemies now fire traveling bullets you can dodge, replacing their ordinary line attacks. Watch the incoming shots, find an opening and keep your escape route clear. Adjusted encounter spacing brings nearby threats into the action sooner.
Choose your hero, build your loadout and take a run into Ranked. How long can you survive when standing still stops being an option?
Chikun’s Escape: a better-looking way to barely make it
Chikun’s course now features refreshed obstacle art rendered from 3D models, including rocks, logs, thorns, crates, birds and planes. Updated animation and course presentation give those jumps, glides and last-second escapes more character.
Run and fly through farmland, forest, town, city, industrial areas, suburbs and the coast as the looping course picks up speed. Controller support and results-screen improvements round out the recent changes.
Take that “one more try” energy into Ranked: collect coins, stretch your survival time and chase achievements such as First Flight and Into the Forest.
STACKED: turn up the music and clear the board
STACKED’s backgrounds have become an animated journey through space, ocean-inspired scenes, Matrix-style code and other visual worlds. The visualizer automatically changes and transitions as you play, with more motion and music-reactive effects.
Luminous blocks, stronger line-clear effects and improved board presentation make each placement and clear more satisfying. Early pressure has also been eased, giving you more time to settle into a rhythm before the hard rows build up.
Head into Ranked, clear your first Genesis Row, then aim for First Halving by clearing four rows with one piece. Keep the stack under control and see how far the soundtrack takes you.
Tower of Power: meet the newest cabinet
Tower of Power joins the arcade with its own rotating cabinet and a familiar entry flow: choose Free Mode, select Lester and head into Level 1.
Inside, staged encounters, punch and kick chains, timed blocks, weightier impacts and improved movement bring the brawler to life. Fight through the floor, take on its final encounter and keep climbing.
Tower of Power is currently a Free playtest. Ranked is not active yet, so jump in, learn the combat and tell us how it feels.
Put your name on the boards
Hard Money Heroes, Chikun’s Escape and STACKED offer Weekly, Monthly and All-time leaderboards, plus 127 available achievements earned through verified Ranked runs. Your profile brings your scores, run history and achievements together, and score cards let you share the runs you’re proud of.
New to Ranked? Connect a wallet, get free testnet zkLTC from the LiteForge faucet, then choose Ranked in one of those three games. Ranked runs on the LitVM LiteForge testnet and costs 0.012 testnet zkLTC per run, plus the wallet’s network fee. Testnet zkLTC has no monetary value. The Ranked guide walks you through it.
Free Mode is available across all four games without a wallet. Use it to learn the controls, then switch to Ranked in HMH, Chikun or STACKED to earn official achievements and compete for a place on the boards.
Your challenge: set a Ranked score in all three, unlock an achievement you haven’t earned yet, and give Tower of Power a first run.
