      Adapt a category idea to a game

      Choose one visible objective and a clear start and finish. Check the game version and whether the route is possible. If you want to submit a run to an existing leaderboard, use the rules listed for that game and category.

      The fixed collection offers 500 English category ideas and rule variants. A result may focus on one goal, restriction, timing rule or event format rather than provide a complete ruleset. The game’s mechanics and the rules you write determine how an attempt works. There are no filters for game, platform, goal, restriction or timing method. The fixed collection contains 500 stored ideas, so results can repeat. All page languages show the same English results; changing the page language does not translate them. Draw again to compare proposals and develop the rules for your chosen game.
