No different from the various MMOs that have been badged over the years, where you can earn the badge very quickly by paying real money, or after a few days if you want to wait. I suggest a medium badge for completing all 24 “Tiny Wonders” levels. Requires 24 coins and maybe half an hour.

The API submits fully completed featured level sets, so it’ll be something with those.
Regarding the comparison to other MMOs, I would like to point out that there are no badges on the site that require using hard currency, _even if hard currency can be acquired in-game without spending real money_. I feel like this is an important distinction; it’s not simply about the amount of time you put into the game. If I were to make a badge for completing specific content that is unlocked with hard currency, you would be forced to dump your hard currency into that particular area in order to earn the badge, and I really feel that spending hard currency should be done purely because the player wants to access content just for the sake of accessing content.

Yeah, I had fun with the actual game! The API issues, not so much. But you guys don’t need to worry about that, so have fun!

What criteria (in terms of level sets) are you considering for Picma? Obviously, not all level sets are created equal here; Links puzzles in general are finished much, much more quickly than the other two types. Additionally, even the Journeyman level sets for Plus and Squares require solving a 50×50 puzzle, which is those formats is fairly time consuming.

Ahh, that makes sense on Gate. Seemed odd that there was just a single medium badge.
Caravaneer 2 is finally out on Kong. Hopefully it will get working API so it can get badged.

I’m still deciding, so suggestions are welcome. I have noticed that link puzzles are much easier than the others. I might do an easy badge for completing any of the 3 easiest level sets and a hard for completing all 9. A medium badge might be redundant with those two.

any chances for badges in tyrant unleash for pc?
i know it got badges on mobile, but some players dont play at mobile, so cant get the badges.
so it would be nice to see badges in pc kong for TU as well.

Problem is that mobile and browser share save files so people who have done the mobile would be getting free badges.

The next badged MMO should be Clout: The Game, just for lulz. It has sufficient rating and API :P

This is a problem because? If they earned the badges in the mobile version… :)

The Gate’s single badge was well placed, it gave a good number of options for the 3 pages, well the third page had a few options and it takes just over an hour to earn, similar to Inferno Legend’s.
Regarding Picma will you badge the original greg?
Also what is the next MMO Kong has to be badged?

I don’t know if this was talked about in this thread or not, but have you considered badging Clicker Heroes? I consider it to be one of the more involved of idle games, and it seems to be quite popular.

The community has to rate the game at least a 3.8 before it’s even considered for badges. Your anger shouldn’t be directed at greg. Firstly, since he doesn’t decide which multiplayer games get badged. Secondly, because he is only following the requirements that are dependent on the community.

Thanks for posting this. Fun little game, very unique look. Unfortunately it won’t get badged, because the rating is too low.

Not on the scale required to affect whether a game is badged or not and remain unnoticed.

Okay, I’ll be honest and say that I skipped from the first page to the last, so I dunno if anyone’s suggested this one yet, but…has anyone considered adding a Hard/Impossible Badge to “Vox Populi, Vox Dei (A Werewolf Thriller)” for killing all seven werewolves in the first building (the one where you learn how to cloak yourself)? Because it IS possible to kill all of them with proper positioning.
So, you could call it “Master of Wolfsbane” or “Lycan Nightmare” or “Magnificent Seven Kills” and make it Hard…or Medium, if you’re feeling sadistic.

Won’t happen because there is no API for it, it already has badges so greg is less likely to go back to it and it is old.

there is a bunch of new games that deserves badges:
[The Awakening RPG](http://www.kongregate.com/games/RockLou/the-awakening-rpg) (current rating: 3.84) no API
- haven’t played the game yet but i can say that the game is pretty large, i read the comments that it is a great game but not completed because it is large
[The Empty Kingdom](http://www.kongregate.com/games/Stillmerlin/the-empty-kingdom) (current rating: 3.72) has API
- a hot new game that is created by the epic comic game creator, [Stillmerlin](http://www.kongregate.com/accounts/Stillmerlin) . This game is really short so i suggest an easy badge for completing the game
[Caravaneer 2](http://www.kongregate.com/games/SugarFreeGames/caravaneer-2) (current rating: 4.07) no API
- a sequel of the game called caravaneer, the game has big rating so i think it really deserves badges
[circloO](http://www.kongregate.com/games/flori9/circloo) (current rating: 3.74) has API
- pretty fun game, unique gameplay, nice concept and really suitable for badges
[Raze 3](http://www.kongregate.com/games/JuiceTin/raze-3) (current rating: 3.96) no API
- the third part of the amazing game series (Raze)
“The Gate” is badged, so [Bloons Monkey City](http://www.kongregate.com/games/Ninjakiwi/bloons-monkey-city) will have a chance to have badges?
- i just played the awakening rpg and it is pretty epic rpg game. The game is really large so it’s not finished because flash player can’t handle this large game, it should be badged even if it’s not completed, it’s different from other rpg games. The combat system is really epic. Deserves badges so i will just wait when the API is implemented. Play it and try it, i think the developer will implement stat. immediately because this developer is active and appreciate the comments in his game.

inferno-legend is probably one of the top-2 worst badges ever. (I have 93% of all badges, so I know almost all of them.)
I wanted to gouge my eyes out after 5 minutes, and 20 minutes in I turned on an auto-clicker and just started waving the mouse at the goddamn endless “click to continues”.
I thought there was a rule that non-interactive videos were strictly prohibited on kong?
P.S. the top comments on the game are: #1: How did this get badged? #2 …one starts to question the integrity of the entire badge-awarding process. #3 I’m mildly curious how this game got a 4.1 with over 5k ratings. Considering that the game is literally unplayable, that seems a little fishy. #4 I’m 20 minutes in and it still won’t let me click on anything other than what’s scripted. This is a fucking painful badge. #5 …1\5 for not even being able to login\create a character. The rest of the comments are similar.

@Alsee Inferno legend has a horrible tutorial and everyone who plays that agrees. It does get fun afterwards.
Top comments were all made on the same day when the game had server issues, it was resolved in the same night.

Got an idea for an impossible badge in Bloons Monkey City – conquering all 5982 tiles. Yeah, I know it’s going to be even more boring than Monsters Den badge, but IMO it’s worth it.
5982 = 2x((60×50) – (3×3))
5982 = 2x(3000 – 9)
5982 = 2×2991
5982 = 5982
Notes to remember:
60 and 50 – the total length and width of the land you can conquer
3 and 3 – the total length and width of your initial city
2 – the number of cities you have in the game

Yeah, you can. Especially considering greg has gone on the record saying he regrets those the most and wishes he could take them back.

if [Ancient Planet](http://www.kongregate.com/games/SJabberwocky/ancient-planet) will reach 3.8 rating, i think it should be badged because it is really a great game but the game has no stat. yet. The game had 3.5 rating then it rise **3.73** in a week? 5 days? so the game is really not too discovered then it appeared in hot new games then it is discovered by the players that the game is truly amazing. I like it just because of the graphics, i like all games with great graphics. My point of saying is i like this game gets badges since there is only two games in the official list. And you can try these games too, these game are purely amazing, if greg likes it then it will be badged even its rating does not reach the requirement just like “Back to Zombieland” so try it greg.
