Almost everyone has
97.4%Nigel — Thanks to his short attention span, he has mastered the use of the fidget spinner.
97.1%Tropicana — You wake up in a tropical world, feeling unwashed and somewhat slightly dazed. This can't be the result of the junk food consumed during last night's gaming session! Brace yourself – a horde of Trubblings is approaching!
89.1%Mike — He always brings snacks, whether it's gaming night or on the battlefield.
Rarest badges of honor
17.1%Return to Lampyridae — Something evil is lurking in the dark. Under the moonlight, you see a sight that almost stops your heart. As horror looks you right between the eyes, you begin running and striking blows in every direction. Shoot first, level up later!
23.6%Georama³ — These mist covered mountains are now your home, but through these fields of destruction, something alien is lurking. It's not over yet. Prepare to witness suffering and earn more level ups as the battle rages high once again.
31.9%Prototype Gamma — It's the potential that matters, like a diamond in the rough.
