Running Your First Game
Game Metrics
When you create a new game, you will select a metric which is used to determine the winner of the game.
Metrics are set-up on the Manage Metrics page and consist of the metric name and the metric verb. For example, Sales Made. If you don’t see the metric you need listed, you may add the metric using the Manage Metrics page. The metrics listed on the Manage Metrics pages are determined by the data connector (i.e.. Salesforce) you have configured for your organization. If you don’t see the desired metric when adding a new metric on the Manage Metrics page, contact support.
Player Target
Some games require a player target. The Player Target value determines the total number of a defined metric players achieve to win. For example, if a game’s metric is Sales Made, and the Player Target is 30. a player must achieve 30 Sales Made to be eligible to win. The game type determines who and when players win rewards. Some games like Tournament do not have a Player Target because the game winners are determined by who has the most of a metric when the game ends.
