### How to set up the Catch and Avoid minigame

Click on the minigame and then on the settings gear icon that will appear in the top menu or double click on the minigame.

You will see a menu with two setup options: **Puzzle** and **Advanced**.

#### Puzzle

Here you can define:

* **Good and bad elements** → Upload your own images and divide the good elements and the bad ones.
* **Container** → You can choose between **three different containers** for the player to use at the bottom of the screen.

The game always starts with **3 lives**. Each time the player catches a bad item, one life is lost. When all lives are lost, the game ends automatically.

#### Advanced

In the Advanced settings you can:

* Mute the game.
* Change the minigame volume.
* Set the wait time (in seconds) before the win/lose actions are executed.
* Allow the player to restart the game.
* Show a summary at the end of the game.

### Player interaction

Players can only move the container horizontally at the bottom of the screen. The goal is to **catch the good elements** and **avoid the bad ones** as they fall from the top.

As the game progresses, objects will fall faster and appear more frequently, making it increasingly challenging.

### How to set up the actions

There are different actions you can configure for this game.

#### When the player finishes the game

You can set up one or more of the following actions:

* **Go to another scene in the game**
* **Add X points**
* **Subtract X points**
* **Visit an external URL**

#### When the player collects a good item

You can also set up actions for each correct item collected, for example:

* **Add X points**
* **Subtract X points**
* **Visit an external URL**
* **Go to another scene in the game**

#### When the player collects a bad item

You can set up actions for each incorrect item collected, for example:

* **Add X points**
* **Subtract X points**
* **Visit an external URL**
* **Go to another scene in the game**

{% hint style="info" %}
It’s very important to specify what should happen in each case. Click on the Actions icon in the top menu and add one or more actions for when the player collects a good or bad element, or when the game ends.
{% endhint %}
