PuckIt FAQ
Short answers to the questions we hear most.
What is PuckIt?
PuckIt is the first fully skill-based PvP game built for Telegram Mini Apps. Gameplay blends elements of air hockey, curling, and shuffleboard into a compact, fast, mobile-friendly format.
Is PuckIt free to play?
Yes. You get 10 free PvP games every day, and split screen (two players on one phone or tablet) is free and unlimited. Stake matches are optional and for adults only.
Do I need to download an app?
No. PuckIt is a Telegram Mini App, so it opens inside Telegram on iPhone, Android, Windows, macOS and Linux. You only need a Telegram account.
How do I start playing?
Tap any “Play in Telegram” button on this site. It opens @PuckItBot in Telegram. Press PLAY in the bottom left corner and the game launches.
Is PuckIt a game of skill or chance?
PuckIt is fully skill-based, with no randomness at all: the result depends only on the players’ aim, shot power and decisions.
Who will I play against?
Real people only: there are no bots in matchmaking. In split-screen mode you play a friend on the same device.
Can players cheat?
PuckIt runs on a fully server-authoritative 2D physics engine, built in-house. The server validates every action, so modified clients, external engines or helper scripts can’t change the result.
How do stake matches work?
Two players place the same stake → the winner takes the pot, minus a 15% fee. In a draw, a 15% fee is collected from each player’s stake individually. The fee is stated in the game rules and on the result screen when you win or draw. Stake matches are optional and only for adults 18+. There are no guaranteed winnings, so only stake what you are comfortable spending on entertainment.
How do I top up my balance?
With Gram (formerly Toncoin), the native token of the TON network, or with Telegram Stars. You don’t need either for free games or split screen.
What happened to Toncoin?
Toncoin, the native token of the TON network, has been renamed Gram (ticker GRAM). The network is still called TON. In PuckIt it appears as Gram.
Is there an age limit?
Yes. PuckIt is for players aged 18 and over, or the legal age in your country if that is higher. You are responsible for checking that skill games with stakes are allowed where you live.
Which devices does PuckIt work on?
Any device that runs a current version of Telegram: iPhone, Android phones and tablets, and Telegram Desktop on Windows, macOS and Linux. Phones give the best feel for flicking.
How can I play responsibly?
Treat PuckIt as entertainment. Set a time and money limit before you play, take breaks, and never chase losses. See our responsible play page for more tips.
