Season 3, Week 19 of Score Chasing begins Saturday, January 11, 2025 at 12:00:01 PST (GMT-8) featuring Phoenix, the arcade version and bonus score chasing Galacticon. This article will tell you everything you need to know about how to join our group and play both games.
PLEASE NOTE: this score chasing event is for adults, age 18 and older, so if you aren’t yet 18, then please return when you are.
First, let’s learn more about Phoenix (arcade). How is the game played via Phoenix – Videogame by Centuri | Museum of the Game
A spaceship which moves left and right horizontally at the bottom of the screen must destroy bird-shaped spaceships, birds, and finally a mothership at the end of each level. The player’s ship is equipped with a shield that requires seven seconds to regenerate before it can be used again.

This will take you directly to the official PGM iScored Score Chasing Scoreboard at the spot where you will enter your score on this week’s featured game. Where can you play? Here are a few suggestions (alphabetical order) but is not a complete list by any means:
- Arcade – yes, check your local area for barcades, arcades, mallcades, etc. You might have an arcade machine nearby and play might still be a quarter!
- Various Emulated / MAME / CoinOpsX / etc – emulated versions are allowed, but we do not typically link to these sources.
- Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch – search the stores for consoles for “arcade archives” as sometimes there are licensed versions of the games we feature available.
Now that you have located where to play, simply start playing to establish your personal best score. The goal of score chasing is not a typical leaderboard high score, be the top score tournament. We simply want you to play and beat your personal best.
