Achievements

The DNA Platform offers a revolutionary cross-game achievement system that allows you to track, verify, and benefit from your gaming accomplishments across multiple titles.

How Achievements Work

The DNA achievement system differs from traditional game-specific achievements in several important ways:

Universal Recognition

  • Achievements earned in one game can be recognized and valued in other games
  • The platform maintains a secure, verified record of all your achievements
  • Game developers can choose to honor achievements from other titles

Zero-Knowledge Verification

  • All achievements are cryptographically verified using zero-knowledge proofs
  • This ensures that achievements are authentic without revealing private gameplay data
  • The verification process is automatic and happens in the background

Achievement Categories

The platform organizes achievements into several categories:

  1. Game-Specific Achievements - Traditional achievements earned within a single game
  2. Cross-Game Achievements - Special achievements earned by completing actions across multiple games
  3. Campaign Achievements - Earned by participating in special campaigns
  4. Community Achievements - Unlocked through community participation and events

Cross-Game Recognition

One of the most powerful features of the DNA Platform is cross-game achievement recognition.

How Cross-Game Recognition Works

  1. Game developers define which external achievements they recognize
  2. When you earn an achievement in Game A, it's recorded in your DNA profile
  3. If Game B recognizes that achievement, you may receive benefits such as:
    • Bonus items or abilities
    • Unlocked content
    • Special customization options
    • In-game currency

Finding Compatible Games

To discover games that recognize your existing achievements:

  1. Go to the "Achievements" section of your dashboard
  2. Select "Compatible Games"
  3. View a list of games that recognize your earned achievements
  4. See what benefits you'll receive in each compatible game

Verifying Achievements

The DNA Platform uses advanced cryptographic techniques to ensure all achievements are authentic.

The Verification Process

  1. When you earn an achievement, the game sends encrypted data to the DNA Platform
  2. The platform validates the achievement using zero-knowledge proofs
  3. The achievement is added to your profile without exposing private gameplay data
  4. Other games can verify the achievement's authenticity without accessing your personal information

Viewing Verification Status

For each achievement in your profile, you can:

  1. Check the verification status (Verified, Pending, or Failed)
  2. View which games recognize the achievement
  3. See a timestamp of when the achievement was earned
  4. Access a cryptographic proof of the achievement's authenticity

Manual Verification Requests

If an achievement fails automatic verification:

  1. Go to the achievement in your dashboard
  2. Select "Request Verification"
  3. Follow the prompts to provide additional information
  4. Wait for the verification team to review your request

Achievement Privacy

You have full control over who can see your achievements:

  • Make all achievements public
  • Share only with specific games
  • Keep certain achievements private
  • Create custom sharing rules for different achievement categories

Achievement Rarity and Value

The DNA Platform assigns rarity scores to achievements based on how many players have earned them:

Rarity LevelPercentage of PlayersBadge Color
Common>50%Green
Uncommon25-50%Blue
Rare10-25%Purple

Achievement Value

The value of an achievement is determined by several factors:

  • Rarity: How uncommon the achievement is
  • Difficulty: How challenging it was to earn
  • Age: When the achievement was earned (early adopters may receive higher value)
  • Relevance: How applicable the achievement is to other games
