Hey there!

It’s been a month since we launched Game Leaderboards for Bunny Chase and Ghosts of Misty Hill, and we’re thrilled by how engaged Pandas have been, with a lot of you competing for the weekly awards and, most importantly, aiming to be the best of the month!

During the first session, we gathered your feedback on how the leaderboard could be improved on our Discord Server and made several updates to the system. The following changes have been made:

• Scores earned using Ghost and Bunny Potions will no longer count toward the leaderboards (along with Turbo Potion). We initially kept these potions enabled despite their slight speed boost, but after receiving your feedback, we decided to revert this change.

• Initially, we announced that monthly winners would receive “a special item prize along with a temporary badge displayed next to their name.” However, the rewards have been slightly adjusted, and the two runner-ups will now also receive a small prize. You will get to know more about this in a bit!

• Weekly prizes will now be given within up to three days after each weekly session ends. (Sorry if this may take a little more time sometimes!) They were originally planned to be awarded monthly, combining the awards of all 4 weekly sessions in a monthly session. We didn’t announce this beforehand, which caused some confusion among players.

We will start working on leaderboards for Line Four and Pen the Pig this month, aiming to launch them for the next monthly session. After receiving your feedback, leaderboards for the single player games will also be introduced in the near future.

FAQ

Why are there weekly sessions if the best-performing players of the month end up being chosen?

Weekly sessions are there to give everyone a fresh start and keep things fun and fair, instead of letting the same scores stay for too long. The weekly awards encourage players to stay motivated and feel rewarded for participating, even if they don’t reach the top by the end of the month.

How are the monthly winners determined?

We determine the winners using the following formula:

Monthly Score = (Game Performance x 0.55) + (Average Weekly Rank x 0.45)
The Monthly Score combines both performance and consistency. Performance counts for 55%, and Average Weekly Rank counts for 45%. This makes it fair for both active players and those who play fewer games but perform very well.

This formula is broken down into the following parts:

Game Performance for Bunny Chase = (Total Bunnies Caught x 0.25) + (Total Black Bunnies Caught x 0.30) + (Highest Score x 0.45)
Game Performance shows how well a player performs overall. It looks at how many bunnies they caught, how many rare black bunnies they caught, and their best single score. The highest score gives the biggest boost to the total.

The formula used for Ghosts of Misty Hill works in a similar way:

Game Performance for Ghosts of Misty Hill = (Total Points x 0.40) + (Highest Score x 0.60)

Average Weekly Rank - This shows how consistent a player is. It takes their rank each week and finds the average.

What are the monthly awards?

The top three players of the month in each game leaderboard will receive an award title on their player card. You may have noticed this new feature added recently. Each of them will receive a title such as “#1 Bunny Chaser – Oct/Nov 2025” or “#3 Ghost Catcher – Oct/Nov 2025”.

The winner, however, receive more than just an award title! For Bunny Chase:

• Winner receives a Golden Chase Net item for their panda.

• Their chase net during Bunny Chase will also appear gold, whether or not they’re wearing the item.

• They also get a special Bunny Chase background.

Similarly for Ghosts of Misty Hill:

• Winner receives a Golden Ghost Catcher item for their panda.

• Their ghost catcher during Ghosts of Misty Hill will also appear gold, whether or not they’re wearing the item.

• They also get a special Ghost of Misty Hill background.
