# Starting a Game

* **Cost to Play**: Starting a Game Round requires spending 10 $FLAPPY tokens. This amount is deducted from the player's wallet each time they initiate a round.
* **Game Rounds and Attempts**: Each Game Round provides the player with 10 attempts to achieve their highest score. These attempts are all part of a single round, and the player can only submit their best score from these attempts.
* **Funding the Prize Fund wallet:** The Prize Fund must hold a minimum amount of $FLAPPY to enable players to start a Game Round. It is auto-funded by a combination of fees captured at the start a game and fees captured by the $FLAPPY [Afterburner.](https://learn.flappyeth.com/faqs/flappy-token#gaming-fees) The Prize Fund can also be funded directly by players to start a new Game Round.
