PLAYROLL LAB · ARCADE BUTTON
Where should Arcade live?
Mix a hero button with a top strip placement. The preview below is the real header and hero at this screen size, so check it on your phone too.
HERO BUTTON
TOP STRIP
PREVIEW
In the real site this opens the Arcade
Today. Three round covers overlapping. Busy, and the covers are too small to read.
A. Plain. A grid icon, the word, the arrow. Calm and clear, matches Play now.
B. Tile row. Three small square covers side by side, like app icons. Still shows real games, no overlap.
C. Flip tile. One cover that flips to the next every 2 seconds. Feels alive, takes no more room than a single tile.
D. Remove. Play now stands alone as the one big action. The live phone already shows the games, and Arcade lives in the top strip.
Top strip today. No Arcade. People only find it from the hero.
1. Text link. Arcade joins For You, For Builders and For Brands. Quiet, desktop only, in the menu on phones.
2. Button by Create. An outlined Arcade button next to Create and Join the waitlist, on every page. On phones it shrinks to the grid icon so it still fits.
My pick: 2 in the top strip, with D or C in the hero. The strip makes Arcade one tap away on every page, so the hero can either drop it for a single strong Play now (D) or keep a lively, uncluttered version (C).
