Challenge Mode
Play free poker and earn rewards
Challenge Mode is our free-to-play game mode: receive free chips to play each day and complete daily challenges to earn rewards. All the fun of poker, without the downside.
Anyone can play and have a fun experience regardless of skill level.
Poker beginner? Practice your skills and gain experience without the risk of losing. Seasoned player? Test out new strategies in a low-pressure environment.
To play Challenge Mode, you’ll need an ICE Poker All Access wearable. You can buy a wearable or join an ICE Poker team to borrow one.
- 3 player minimum
- Max buy-in = 1,000 chips
- Small blind = 10 chips
- Big blind = 20 chips
You receive a set amount of free chips based on your wearable's rank and how many wearables you equip. All players' chip balances reset daily at 00:00 UTC.
Chips are non-transferable tokens that hold no value other than to play ICE Poker with.

- Rank 1 — 1,400 chips
- Rank 2 — 1,500 chips
- Rank 3 — 1,600 chips
- Rank 4 — 1,700 chips

Equipping additional wearables adds:
- Rank 1 — 400 chips
- Rank 2 — 500 chips
- Rank 3 — 600 chips
- Rank 4 — 700 chips
- Rank 5 — 800 chips

---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | 1,400 chips | 1,500 chips | 1,600 chips | 1,700 chips | 1,800 chips |

Each day, you’ll have four daily challenges you can complete to earn rewards and XP.
Challenge Type | Reward | XP |
---|---|---|
Check-in | 5 $ICE or Banked ICE | 0 XP |
Easy | 23 $ICE or Banked ICE | 1 XP |
Medium | 50 $ICE or Banked ICE | 2 XP |
Hard | 75 $ICE or Banked ICE | 3 XP |
You’ll be randomly assigned one of the easy, medium, and hard challenges below. Challenges reset daily at 00:00 UTC.
The type of rewards you earn depends on whether you own a wearable or are borrowing one:
- If you own a wearable, you’ll earn $ICE.
- If you’re borrowing a wearable, you’ll earn Banked ICE.
You can use Banked ICE to redeem prizes such as discounted All Access wearables, discounted Arcade wearables, and $ICE. To learn more, check out our Banked ICE blog post.
XP is used to upgrade your wearables to increase your rewards. We’ll cover upgrading wearables and reward bonuses in the next section.
