ᴄʜᴇᴇsᴇ ɪᴛ!

Since I can't understand your post, I'll answer the only question you asked:

For prizes, give extra lives, stat buff, info about game, hints on secrets, a "hidden score" to let you compare how well you did each time you play the game, and/or alternative ending/harder challenges.

You could integrate mini-games by making them part of the travel. Maybe a teleporter puzzle to warp a key to a locked barrier, for example.

Anyone who has played FF knows that teleporter puzzles are PAINFUL to solve. Therefore, I fully advocate its inclusion on an SC map =P.

The simplest way to give prizes would be giving the player extra units, although raising max hp, giving them vespene gas/minerals to upgrade, etc. are all viable options.

Just here for the pie

Stats boost, helpful item(s), currency, rare equipment, key(s), something to help them later, experience, weapons, new spells, etc. Choose your poison.

A simple bound game that gets harder every 5 seconds could be a good mini game. Maybe the higher you get the better prizes you get. If you make it 10 seconds, a lesser healing potion could be the reward. If you survive for a minute, maybe a weapon, or a mass of experience. Maybe a dodge the lurker game, a game where you press buttons, or even a game where who ever kills the most creatures wins.

hah yeah in the past that might've been up my alley. haven't really been mapping lately, been too busy with everything else. and kinda lost interest too tbh. just not enough people left on SC to feel worth investing the time personally.
