One project holds the top slot. Credits are the only thing that moves it.

How it works

  1. 1

    Play or contribute

    Complete browser challenges at your own pace. Nothing runs until you press start, and everything can be stopped.

  2. 2

    Collect credits

    Save credits in your local POWLOL wallet. They stay in this browser until you decide to spend them.

  3. 3

    Back something

    Spend them later to move a project up the board. Small wallets still move the needle.

the rule

Money may get a project into the game. Only credits move it up the board.
