Renown
Renown is your Marquee level: one star for every Arcade level you clear, up to a ladder of 500.
What Renown is
Renown is your Marquee level — the number the Marquee reads to decide which rows you hold. It is counted in stars, and you earn exactly one star for every Arcade level you clear. The server sets it from your Arcade level on every launch, so the two can never drift apart.
Nothing else awards Renown: not the board, stickers, quests, tournaments, the hoard or a prestige. It never goes down, and a prestige does not touch it.
The level curve
Every launch on the ARCADE scores points into the level bar; fill it and the level — and your Renown — goes up by one. The cost of a level climbs slowly at first and steeply past level 100. The Arcade Level page covers the machine itself; the samples below are here so you can plan a Marquee row.

Where you see it
Tips
- Points per coin are flat across stakes, so the fastest route to the next row is the highest stake you can afford to keep launching at.
- The ladder stops at Lv 500, but Arcade levels do not — levels past it still raise your hiscore rank.
- Your player level — the green XP bar at the top of the board — is a different thing: it comes from ore and resets when you prestige. See Player level.
