Purchasing & Playing for Real Credits

Play for more than bragging rights - win your opponents money! Real Money Games take the excitement of Conquiztador Contests to another level. It works as follows: You purchase credits through Paypal or our secure online shopping cart. Then armed with a real money balance you can enter the Real Money Play hall and choose real money games to join. The three of you then battle it out and the winner doubles his wager. You can cash out your credits and use them to buy gift vouchers that can be spent at 100's of online stores. Note: You can cash out after playing 6 games and accumulating at least $30 in your balance.

SETTING UP A REAL MONEY GAME
Firstly, make sure you are on the Real Money Play section by clicking the real Money Tab (A) at the top of the game screen. There, at the bottom right side of the screen you will see your account balance (B). This is the total amount of credits you have available to play with. The Deposit button (C) gives you immediate access to the shopping cart where you can purchase additional credits and the Cash Out Button (D) allows you to return your credits back to your pocket.

To play a cash game, you have 2 choices. You can join an existing game or create a new one. You can join an existing game by choosing a game on the left (F). To create a new game you click the "Create Game" button (E) at the bottom of the screen. More on each of these options below.



CREATING A NEW GAME
To create a new game click the "Create Game" button described in the section above. This opens the "Create New Game Room" window to the right. Here you select your preferences for the game.

- The "Stake" is the amount in dollars each player wagers in the game. Click one of the stake amount buttons or enter an amount manually into the stake amount box.

- The "OPPONENT1" and "OPPONENT2" buttons allow you to select who you want to play against. Click those buttons to choose specific players or leave them as they are to play against anyone that chooses to join.

- The "PPP Limit" drop downs allow you to choose the strength of players you are willing to play against. PPP, or Player Power Points, are a calculation of player strength that is made after ever game. Players who play a lot and win often will have higher PPP scores. Each player receives a PPP score of 5000 when they first sign up. From there, after each game, your PPP score is recalculated and can increase to a maximum of 10,000 or decrease to a minimum of 0. Using the drop downs, you can choose to play only players that have a PPP score within a range you specify. The left drop down is the minimum PPP score and the right drop down is the maximum. You'll notice that default range is from 0 - 10,000. Leave that as it is to allow players of any PPP score to join your game or specify another range.

- When you are done, click "Create game" at the bottom. That will lead you to the next screen.



CREATING A NEW GAME - STEP 2
Once you complete the Create New Game Room window options you'll arrive to the "Waiting for Game" window (A). As players join your game, you'll see their details there. Plus you'll see your game listed on left (B). If at some point you choose to cancel your game, click the "Quit" button (C). This will cancel the game and return you to the real money games lobby.



CREATING A NEW GAME - STEP 3
When 2 other opponents have joined your game, click the "Start game" button to launch the match.



JOINING AN EXISTING REAL MONEY GAME
If there is a game listed on the left that suits you, join that game rather than creating a new one. To do that, click on the game to bring up up the "Room Info" screen shown here. You can review the game details and check out further details on the opponents by clicking more info button. If you decide to join the game, click the "Join this room" button. If you choose not to join, click the close window X button in the top right of the "Room Info" window (not the top right of the screen - that will close the game).



JOINING A REAL MONEY GAME - STEP 2
Once you join a room you'll see yourself listed in the Waiting for Game window. If you wish to cancel waiting for a game, click the "Quit" button at the bottom of that window. Once 3 players in total have joined, the game initiator needs to click the "Start game" button shown above, for the match to start.



PLAYING A REAL MONEY GAME
Once your game starts, the game play is just like a play for fun game, except the credits you are wagering are now real cash - which is real exciting!! Besides that, there is really only one addition to the Real Money Game screen, and that's a box in the top right that shows your current balance and the stake of the current game.
