🕹️ High Score Club · Cabinet Edition

The High Score Club Series. One badge for every cabinet we built by hand — earned the honest way, by dropping a quarter and actually playing. Work your way down the row, then sign the Hall of Fame, and the set is yours. (The two Internet Archive text adventures are guests on our floor, not our cabinets, so they don’t hand out badges.)

📍 not hidden anywhere — earned the first time you step up to the SOLITAIRE cabinet at the arcade 🕹️

Twelve mines, one grid, nerves of steel. Planting a flag is basically a promise. 💣

📍 not hidden anywhere — earned the first time you step up to the MINESWEEPER cabinet at the arcade 🕹️

Uncommon

Green Thumb

You stood in the bottom six rows of somebody’s garden with one can of spray while a caterpillar the length of the screen came down at you, and you worked out that the head is the safe shot. The mushrooms grow back. They always grow back. 🍄

📍 not hidden anywhere — earned the first time you step up to the GARDEN CRAWLER cabinet at the arcade 🕹️

Uncommon

Diagonal Thinker

Twenty-eight cubes, four diagonals, and a control scheme that finally admits the arrows are turned forty-five degrees. You worked out which way ↑ actually goes and hopped anyway. The edge is right there. 🟧

Uncommon

Night Shift

You worked a whole beach at low tide in a bottle cap, with four gulls reading your route better than you were, and you learned the difference between the one behind you and the one already at the corner. The plankton helps. 🦀

Rare

On the Board

🌈 The Rainbow · Rainy Day Edition

The Rainbow Series. Five bands, five different corners of the site — the arc came apart in the storm and the pieces landed all over. Find all five and it puts itself back together, in colour, and plays you a song about it. 🌈

Common

The outside band, the loudest one, the one kids reach for first. Wavelength: 700nm of pure enthusiasm.

📍 tucked behind the cabinets on the arcade floor, glowing like a start button 🕹️

Tangerine Dream

Second from the top and completely fine about it. Smells faintly of a citrus grove at 5pm.

Mellow Yellow

The band that does the actual glowing. Borrowed from the sun, never gave it back.

📍 tucked in among the stars at the Horoscope-o-Matic ✨

Evergreen

Dead centre of the arc, holding the whole thing together. Very calm. Slightly smug.

📍 tucked between the shelves in the Reading Room 📖

OSSmile Stickers are Definitely Not NFTs. There is no blockchain. There is no token. There is no “smart” contract. Your stickers live in this browser’s localStorage and absolutely nowhere else in the universe. Resale value: one (1) smile. Environmental impact: a single contented sigh. You may “own” serial #0001 and so may a million other people, and that is fine, because the whole point was just to have a nice time. 💛
