Leveling Up the Trophy System

By Darshan Somashekar - 07/29/2025

If you're a dedicated solitaire player who loves tracking your progress, we've got some exciting updates that will make your gaming experience even better. We recently rolled out two important changes to how trophies work.

Going from Monthly to Lifetime

Have you ever noticed something odd about your trophy progress? Maybe you had 500 lifetime wins, but after earning a trophy and leveling up, your progress bar suddenly showed you starting from zero again just when the month changes over.

Now, your trophy progress indicators always show your true lifetime win count. You no longer have to worry about missing out on trophies when you are just a few wins away.

Introducing Trophy Levels: A New Challenge for Masters

But wait, there's more! For those of you who've already conquered every trophy and wondered "what's next?" - we've got you covered with our brand new prestige system.

Here's how it works:

Simplified Trophy Earning

First, we've made earning trophies simpler and more predictable. Now you earn a trophy every 50 wins. No more complicated calculations - just straightforward progress you can easily track.

The Prestige System

Once you reach 11,650 wins and collect all the trophies, something special happens. Instead of having nowhere left to go, you "prestige" to Level 2. Your trophy collection resets, but you're now playing at a higher tier. Think of it like starting a new game+ mode in your favorite video game.

Show Off Your Status

Your prestige level appears as a sleek golden badge with gradient coloring in three key places:

  • On the congratulations popup when you win a game
  • Next to your name on the leaderboard
  • In your account page statistics

This means everyone can see at a glance just how dedicated you are to the game. Are you a Level 2 player? Level 5? The sky's the limit!

Why These Changes Matter

Together, these updates create a more satisfying progression system for players at every level:

  • New players get clear, consistent feedback on their progress
  • Regular players see their actual achievements reflected accurately
  • Master players have new goals to chase with the prestige system

The best part? There's no ceiling anymore. Whether you're working toward your first trophy or your tenth prestige level, there's always something new to achieve.

Looking Forward

These updates represent our commitment to making the game more enjoyable for our entire community. We've listened to your feedback about confusing displays and the need for long-term goals, and we've delivered solutions that we think you'll love.

Happy playing, and may your trophy collection - and prestige level - continue to grow!
