Gold Points (GP)

Overview

Gold Points (GP) function as the in-app currency in the XP system, allowing users to purchase Accessories, Automatos, and other rewards that enhance your experience and provide real-world benefits.

How to Earn GP

  • Complete Achievements: Many tasks award GP alongside XP
  • Bonus Objectives: Extra effort on tasks can yield additional GP
  • Daily Streaks: Maintaining consistent performance increases GP rewards
  • Special Events: Limited-time challenges offer enhanced GP earnings
  • Selling Items: Some collected items can be sold at the Store for GP

Using GP

GP can be spent at various locations:

  • Store: Purchase accessories, equipment, and consumable items
  • Bank: Save GP for larger rewards or earn interest over time
  • Marketplace: Trade with family members or buy the real-world rewards the Game Master has stocked
  • Special Shops: Holiday or seasonal vendors with unique offerings

Real-World Reward Examples

GP buys money-valued shop items. At the default rate 100 GP is worth $1, so a Frost Treat costs 400 GP and a $60 video game costs 6,000 GP.

  • A treat or a snack
  • A small toy or a pack of trading cards
  • A movie, a meal out or a sleepover
  • A video game or a bike, saved for over weeks

Screen time and privileges (extra screen time, a later bedtime, the choice of weekend activity) are not bought with GP. They are Powers: the hero earns the AP gate and casts the Power with MP. See Ability Points (AP).

GP Management Tips

  • Saving Strategy: Set GP goals for larger rewards
  • Daily Income: Establish a routine of GP-earning activities
  • Investment: Use the Bank to grow your GP over time
  • Balance: Consider when to spend GP on small items vs. saving for a big reward
