Prizes
Just having fun isn't enough for you? Don't worry, there are cash prizes, too!
Grand Prize
$10,000
The grandest of the prizes - The Grand Prize. This prize gets its name from being a whopping $10,000 for the overall best Kajam repl.
Most Creative
$5,000
Get your creative juices flowing because the Most Creative reward is out there for anyone who can surprise us with an ingenious repl. This prize requires you to take risks, and make something no one has seen before…all while sticking to the theme!
Best Story
$5,000
Once upon a time, there was a pile of $5,000 lying around. After a few days this pile of money thought “You know what I like? A story.” Help us fulfill this pile of money’s goal by putting a fantastic story into your repl.
Most Polished
$5,000
No mistakes. No glitches. Nothing left incomplete. If you’re the perfectionist that needs everything pixel-perfect, then the Most Polished award is for you. Make our monitors sparkle!
Most Hilarious
$5,000
Wanna hear a joke? We do too. That's why we created the Most Hilarious award, to celebrate a repl that brings a healthy dose of levity and humor to their submission.
Best Kaboom Game
$5,000
It’s called Kajam for a reason. The repl that wins this award used Kaboom to a great extent, and even used it in ways we didn’t think possible.
Best Crowd Pleaser
$1,000
It pays to be famous, because all famous people win the Best Crowd-pleaser award. Get likes. Get Shares. Get Paid. Keep in mind, only real people with real likes count towards this award. To be eligible for this prize, share your repl on TikTok, tag us @replit, and use the hashtag #kajam
