¶ What Are Challenges?
Challenges are a fun and competitive way to play on Bridge Champ. They let you face other players, groups, or bots using the same set of random boards. You always play as South, with bots filling the remaining seats.
¶ Key Features:
- Flexible Participation: Join, pause, and resume any time within 72 hours.
- Fair Play: Everyone pays the same entry fee; winnings are distributed after a small platform fee.
- Automatic Results: Challenges end when all players finish or the 72-hour limit expires.
- Instant or Scheduled Matches: Bot challenges start immediately. Player and group challenges start after acceptance.
- Registration Period: You have 48 hours to join before a challenge begins.
If a player doesn’t complete all boards within 72 hours, they lose — no matter how well they performed on earlier boards.
