Skive Tokens

Collect the legends of the floor.

Caricatures of factory characters caught having a sly one. You earn them by playing in the app, win games, build streaks, top the board, and they unlock automatically. Big Dinners turns up almost straight away (he is everywhere), the rare ones take some grafting. Then share them to the group chat.

Skivin' or rivin'?

Top of the board means you've been skivin' (on the app, where you should be). Bottom means you've been rivin' (grafting too hard, poor bugger). Real leaderboards, every site, every phone.
