Frequently Asked Questions

Pixal Quest is a decentralized prize game platform. Each game has a board of pixels — every pixel costs $1 USDC and contains a hidden share of a prize pool. After all pixels are sold, shares are revealed and top collectors per prize pool win USDC payouts.

Every pixel costs exactly $1 USDC. You pay with USDC on the Base network.

Each pixel is assigned to a gift pool with a share amount. After sellout, shares are revealed. The top N collectors (by total shares) of each gift pool win USDC prizes. Runner-ups receive non-transferable game points.

Yes. We use a commit-reveal scheme: a random seed is committed before the game starts, combined with a future block hash that nobody can predict. This creates a deterministic but unpredictable allocation. A Merkle root is published on-chain so every reveal can be independently verified.

No. The operator commits a seed hash before the block hash is known, so they cannot manipulate the allocation. The Merkle root is on-chain and immutable — any tampering would be detectable.

Game points are non-transferable credits awarded to runner-ups. They can be redeemed in future games for benefits. Points cannot be sent to other wallets — they are soulbound.

Pixal Quest runs on the Base network (an Ethereum L2) for low fees and fast transactions.

Yes. You need a Web3 wallet (like MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, or Rainbow) connected to the Base network with USDC to purchase pixels.

After all pixels in a game are sold, you can reveal each of your pixels to see which prize pool it belongs to and how many shares it carries. The reveal is verified on-chain via a Merkle proof.

After all shares are revealed and the leaderboard is computed, the admin approves distribution. USDC is sent directly to winner wallets via smart contract.
