Your Journey
Your Journey is a personal milestone surface that highlights your streaks and unlocked achievements. It’s passive (you never have to opt in to a challenge) and it syncs across your devices.
Activity heatmap
Section titled “Activity heatmap”A 6-month rolling window shows one cell per day, with weekday labels down the leading edge. The heatmap goes beyond the basic Calendar view by overlaying:
- Achievement pins: a glyph anchored to the day each milestone was unlocked.
- Streak bands: shaded bands highlighting stretches of consecutive weeks with at least one played game.
- Current-streak accent: cells in your active day-streak get a 1pt inner accent stroke.
The pins and bands position themselves from each cell’s actual rendered frame, so the layout stays correct under any text size, padding, or sheet width.
Streaks
Section titled “Streaks”| Stat | Definition |
|---|---|
| Current day streak | Consecutive days with at least one completed game, counting today |
| Longest day streak | Strictly monotonic. Never goes down even if the current streak resets |
| Current week streak | Consecutive weeks with a played game |
| Longest week streak | All-time longest |
A reset doesn’t erase the longest stat. It just starts the current counter over.
Achievements
Section titled “Achievements”There are 14 achievements, all auto-unlocked from gameplay milestones. Unearned ones show as locked silhouettes with progress; unlocked ones display the date they were earned.
| Achievement | Goal |
|---|---|
| First Game | Finish your first game |
| Centurion | Finish 100 games |
| On Fire | Play on 7 consecutive days |
| Dedicated | Play on 30 consecutive days |
| Game Night Regular | Play a game every week for 4 weeks |
| Season Regular | Play a game every week for 12 weeks |
| Variety | Play 5 different kinds of games |
| Globetrotter | Use 3 different scoring modes |
| The Host | Score a game for 6 or more players |
| Marathoner | Finish a game with 20 or more rounds |
| Family Time | Finish 10 Kids Mode games |
| Scribe | Add notes or memories to 10 games |
| Hat Trick | Win 3 games in a row (per persona) |
| Comeback Kid | Win a game after being last at end of round 2 (per persona) |
Hat Trick and Comeback Kid are persona-scoped. They unlock per-persona and surface on the persona detail screen as well as the device-level grid, so different players in your household can each earn them independently.
Backfill
Section titled “Backfill”When a build adds new achievements, a one-shot retroactive scan runs over your existing game history and awards anything you’ve already earned. The scan is versioned, so it only runs once per release.
When an achievement unlocks during gameplay, a brief toast slides up from the floating bar. Tap it to deep-link straight into Your Journey. Handy for checking what you just earned without losing your spot in the game.
- Add memories often. The Scribe achievement is one of the easiest to grab.
- Mix scoring modes (additive, target, win/draw/loss) to make progress on Globetrotter.
- Family Time only counts Kids Mode games: perfect excuse for a parents-vs-kids tournament.
- The 6-month window stays current. Old streaks scroll off, but their pins remain on whichever days they were unlocked.

Do achievements sync between my devices?

Why didn’t I unlock Hat Trick after winning three in a row?
Section titled “Why didn’t I unlock Hat Trick after winning three in a row?”Hat Trick is per-persona: the same persona has to win three in a row, not “any combination of you wins three in a row”. Check the persona detail screen to see progress.
What happens to my streak if I miss a day?
Section titled “What happens to my streak if I miss a day?”Your current day streak resets to 0 the day after a missed day, but your longest day streak stays put. Week streaks work the same way at the week level.
