Games Master Challenge
What is the Games Master Challenge?
Every year in November a Blumaroo named Aristotle A. Avinroo (better known as Aaa) gives out game challenges to Neopians. The first time he has done so was in November 2006. On this page you can see all challenges, prizes and qualifying games. You will also see some tips on how to play the challenges and beat them. Click here to go to Games Master Challenge.
If you want to practice, SunnyNeo's Games Room lists all GMC and Daily Dare scores from previous years. This will give you an idea of which score you'll need to get to beat AAA.

The 2009 Games Master Challenge is now over! Challenges can no longer be completed. Trophies have been given out based on how many challenges you completed.The 2009 Games Master Challenge also included a NeoCash Challenge. More information can be found in our NC Challenge Guide.
2009 GMC Trophy Glitch: If you revisit the GMC page now, your "challenges completed" will be downgraded by up to 3 challenges. This can cause the trophy on your lookup to become downgraded. Do NOT visit the GMC page if you don't want your score to be downgraded. If your trophy has been downgraded because of visiting the page, send a bug report to TNT by using one of the automated forms at the Contact Us page: http://www.neopets.com/contact.phtml |
Duping Glitch: (Resolved) Some people were getting multiple prizes from each GMC challenge. This problem has been fixed and multiples of prizes are no longer being given out. TNT has given official word on this glitch. If you received duplicated NP items, simply delete the duplicates. If you have received duplicated NC items, send a bug report, and TNT should delete them for you. Many people are reporting that their extra items have already been deleted. |
2008 GMC Trophy glitch: (Resolved) After completing a challenge for this year's GMC, your trophy from last year's GMC (if you have one) disappears. This glitch has now been fixed. All 2008 GMC trophies have been returned, and the new trophies for this year's GMC have been given out. |

Additional Challenge Help
For each challenge there are certain requirements that you must meet to beat the challenge, as you can see in the table further up the page. Although five challenges are given out daily, you may complete them at any time before the challenge's deadline, which this year is December 1. For each challenge you complete you are eligible to receive a prize. This year you do not need to click on the present image to claim your prize. Your "View Progress" page will show the image of the prize once it has been awarded.
Important: Your prizes are not awarded until you view the Games Master Challenge page. After that the prizes will appear in your inventory.
The challenges revolve around a group of selected qualifying games. Each year the list of games changes and is expanded. The odd number of games is due to the addition of several sponsor games. For some challenges, people from the USA will play a sponsor game whereas non-USA people will have a different, non-sponsor game.
This year there are eight types of challenges.
