Game mechanics

Achievement = Badge. Earnt after a number of actions, or given circumstances, it is owned by players and add points to their score. It may be limited by player or game level.
Quest. A list of achievements, normally ordered. It can be limited in number of awarded players ( contest ) or in time ( combo ).
Level. Applied to a player, the level not only adds up to the game engagement, it can unlock achievements and quests. Each level has a minimum score in order to be reached.
Score. Numerical value that shows the player's progress in the game. It allows to reach levels and therefore to unlock some achievements and quests. Both Achievements and Quests add up score, although other actions might as well.
