If players win a minigame, they earn 10 points (15 points in Pro Servers), which players can spend items in the shop.

Epic Minigames won three awards for "Best Free-for-All Multiplayer Game" and "Best Game Logo" during the 5th Annual Bloxy Awards and for "Best Lobby" during the 6th Annual Bloxys. The game received a revamped lobby in August 2019. On April 24, 2020, the game reached one billion visits, becoming the 16th game to surpass this milestone. A large update was published on May 2, 2020, to celebrate this milestone.

Normal Servers
Normal Servers are standard servers players join when they first join. Normal Servers include all of the minigames and maps that would otherwise not be playable in Large Servers. Normal Servers have a capacity of 12 players.

Pro Servers
Pro Servers are more challenging compared to Normal Servers. Pro Servers award an additional amount of coins every time they win a minigame. As reserved for experienced players, players must be at least level 24 to join Pro Servers. Just like Normal Servers, they have a capacity of 12 players.

Large Servers
Large Servers are three times larger compared to Normal and Pro Servers, having a capacity of 36 players. Minigames have a similar difficultly to that of minigames in Normal Servers. However, there are modifications placed in some minigames to handle the increased capacity. A few minigames are not playable due to the capacity of Large Servers. There is no requirement to enter Large Servers.

Massive Servers
Massive Servers were a limited-time server type created to celebrate one billion visits, its concept was almost the same as the large servers, only difference is that the servers could hold up to 72 players. Massive Servers has no requirement to get accessed. Now the servers are removed and those cannot be joined anymore.

Epic Party
Epic Party is a server where 2 to 12 players play on different boards to gain the most diamonds. It is similar to the Mario Party series. After each turn, the players will play a random minigame. There is no requirement to enter Epic Party.

Secret Room
Hidden within the lobby, there is a locked door. In the new lobby, it is located underground near the lighthouse. In the original lobby, the door could have been found inside the mine beside two other unlocked doors. The secret to open this door is by finding all 5 hats. Clicking these 5 hats in any order would unlock access to the secret room.

New Hat Locations

 * TypicalType's former hat on a plant in the building with the leaderboards.
 * Worthyshiningkazoo's skull sat on a crate near a campfire.
 * A black and white fedora behind a rock near the red slide.
 * TheSteelEagle's hat under an open tent near the lighthouse.
 * A black bucket hat sitting on the dock.

Old Hat Locations

 * TypicalType's former hat on a counter on the 2nd floor of the lobby.
 * Wizard hat on a glass table on the 2nd floor of the other side of the lobby, right across the room a player should've found the rainbow hat within (unless they found the wizard hat first, go to the other side of the second floor to get the TypicalType's hat, too).
 * Chicken hat outside of the lobby located somewhere above the shop sitting on several crates.
 * worthyshiningkazoo's skull hanging on a crystal in the centre of the mine.
 * If a player goes past the mine entrance, they will find a rope. Go up this rope and go to the right. Go all the way to the top part of the lobby. The tree that is closest to the player has a mask in one of its branches. This is the last hat.

Once all five hats are found, the door should unlock and after the player steps in it would award the player with a badge. However, in the original lobby, the room shows no value — just a simple 'Easter Egg'. In the current lobby, it is a large room that features a jet. The colour scheme seems to reference the lobby of Silent Assassin, another game by TypicalType.
