	Points are the currency of Nunook. Each time you play a game, you earn points. In turn, this allows you to increase your achievement level on the site. Achieving a higher level gives you access to exclusive content that is not available to players at lower levels. Plus, being at a higher level than your friends means that you're a better gamer!
	Your points can be used to edit your avatar. Each time you dress your avatar, you use up your shop points, but your total points don't change. This means your achievement level doesn't change when you spend your points shopping.

Challenges allow you to compete directly against your friends. A challenge is an invitation to someone to beat your highest score in a game. Your Challenge Score, listed at the top of your MyNook page, is a count of your net challenge victories (number of challenges won, minus number of challenges lost).

You can send other people a challenge through the Challenge a Friend section on each game page. You need to select a friend and a duration for which your challenge is active. Your friend will then be challenged to beat your current highest score in that game, and they can accept or decline the challenge.

You will see the challenges that other people have sent you in the My Active Challenges section of your MyNook page. This includes both your Pending Challenges, which are challenges you need to respond to; and Ongoing Challenges, which are challenges you have accepted. If you beat the score that you have been challenged to within the time given, you win the challenge.

Your avatar is a representation of you online. You can choose from a variety of modern and traditional Indian options to bring your avatar to life.
