Google Skills Arcade points system
Each game badge is worth 1 Arcade point and every 2 skill badges are worth 1 point. Facilitator milestones add 15, 25, 35 or 45 bonus points on top, but they do not unlock prizes on their own.
How regular Arcade points work
Combine game and skill badges to build your base score toward exclusive Google Cloud rewards.
| Badge type | Points | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Game badge | 1 point each | 2 game badges = 2 points |
| Skill badge | 2 badges = 1 point | 4 skill badges = 2 points |

Facilitator milestone bonus points
Complete Facilitator milestones, including lab-free courses, to earn bonus Arcade points. Each milestone also requires the new Bonus Milestone.
| Milestone | Arcade games | Skill badges | Arcade points | Bonus points | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Milestone 1 | 6 | 18 | 15 | +15 | 30 |
| Milestone 2 | 8 | 34 | 25 | +25 | 50 |
| Milestone 3 | 10 | 50 | 35 | +35 | 70 |
| Milestone 4 | 12 | 66 | 45 | +45 | 90 |
Arcade points are the regular points those games and badges already earn (games × 1, plus badges ÷ 2).
