Browser games. Litecoin culture.
Hold off the horde, help Chikun escape, stack the ledger, climb the tower, race the city, or escape the labyrinth. Pick a cabinet and play free in your browser.
Free play needs no wallet. No download. Just a browser.
01 / On the floor
The old money is gone, and the Crypto Wasteland belongs to the horde. Choose your hero, scavenge weapons across ten ruined districts, and hold the line long enough to make hard money mean something again.
Chikun has one shot at getting off the farm, and the tractor behind him and the hawks above are not letting him go quietly. Run, jump, and flap through Ground & Sky, grab every Litecoin you can, and read the next gap before you take it.
Down in the back room of the arcade, the ledger never stops falling. Stack, spin, and seal each block to the beat while the worlds behind the board pulse with your rhythm, and save the Halving Hammer for when the stack gets too tall.
The boss is waiting at the top of the Tower of Power, and every floor in between is packed with his crew. Fight your way up as Lester with punches, kicks, throws, and specials, one elevator ride at a time, and break whatever gets in the way.
Private gatekeepers own the roads, and the dispatch network wants its districts back. Ride the forbidden courier route from Genesis Mile to the Lite Spire, weave through traffic, take the risky shortcuts, and knock rival riders off their bikes before they do it to you.
The labyrinth was built so that no single keeper could own its exit. Now its custodians are trapped by their own safeguards, and the thief Lazarus slips through the cracks. Choose a Lester class, find the three seals, and decide how much more you dare to take before you walk out.
02 / What's new
Lite Riders is a motorcycle combat racer across six city districts, from Genesis Mile to the Lite Spire.
The Silver Labyrinth is a first-person maze crawler: find three seals and escape before Lazarus finds you.
Since Beta 2.5, Hard Money Heroes has been rebuilt almost end to end.
Chikun’s Escape now looks, moves and feels like a different game from Beta 2.5.
STACKED’s Halving Hammer got cheaper, smarter and easier to reach.
Tower of Power went from a Free playtest to a full Ranked cabinet.
03 / Make yourself at home

Games with Ranked have global Weekly, Monthly, and All-time leaderboards that rank the best server-checked Ranked score of each wallet (Tower of Power ranks the highest floor reached first, then score). Revisit a run, change your approach, and come back for another try.
Ranked runs are checked by the arcade server and published on the LitVM LiteForge testnet, and each leaderboard row links to its transaction. Weekly boards reset on Monday at 00:00 UTC and monthly boards on the 1st at 00:00 UTC.

Yes. Games with Ranked have global Weekly, Monthly, and All-time leaderboards that rank the best server-checked Ranked score of each wallet (Tower of Power ranks the highest floor reached first, then score). Weekly boards reset on Monday at 00:00 UTC and monthly boards on the 1st at 00:00 UTC. Every wallet has a public profile with its best scores, Ranked runs, and the achievements the arcade server recorded for it. Your display name is saved on chain with a small transaction you pay for. You can upload a profile photo from your Profile page. Names that break the arcade's rules are hidden on its pages by moderation.
Ranked costs 0.012 zkLTC per run on the LitVM LiteForge testnet: a 0.01 zkLTC entry, split 85% to the game's developer and 15% to the arcade, plus a 0.002 zkLTC settlement reserve that pays the arcade's relayer to publish your result. Testnet zkLTC has no value. Any test prizes are paid in testnet tokens that also have no value. Testnet entries are not refunded. Free Mode is always free.
Get free testnet zkLTC from the LiteForge faucet (0.05 per request, enough for about 3 Ranked runs). Testnet zkLTC has no monetary value. The player guide at lestersarcade.io/how-ranked-works walks through every step, from connecting a wallet to your first Ranked run.
When a Ranked run ends, the arcade server checks it. Chikun's Escape and STACKED runs are replayed on the server from their recorded inputs. Hard Money Heroes runs are plausibility-checked against the game's limits; they are not replayed. Tower of Power climbs upload their inputs in checkpoints, and the server replays each one. The arcade's relayer then publishes the result on LitVM, and your results screen links to the transaction. If publishing fails, it retries automatically, and you can retry it from your profile.
All six games support on-screen touch controls as well as desktop input. A current browser is required. Performance varies by device; the games include settings for controls, audio, and visual effects.

Hard Money Heroes // Level 1
Parachute into one of ten landing zones on the Litecoin Frontier, ten areas joined by roads from the MWEB Meadows to the Fork Fortress. Take on missions for reward chests and face the district bosses in their courts: the Liquidator, the Rug Pull Baron, the Lockkeeper and the 51% Foreman. Survive 60 minutes to be Extracted with your full score; before that, the run ends when your hero falls.
Collect pickups as you move. Walk near machinery to activate it. You can change supported keyboard bindings in Settings.
