Energy

Energy is Arctic Shores’ reward-learning task: four generators each add or drain power according to hidden probability profiles. You raise the power level toward target by learning which generators to exploit and which to avoid — while their positions shuffle between rounds.

How to Play

01

Four generators — each press adds or drains power by its hidden profile.

02

Raise the total power toward the target within your activations.

03

Generator positions shuffle between rounds: track them by identity, not location.

04

Draining to zero fails the round — learn fast, then exploit.

In the real assessment

The four-option reward-learning structure, hidden gain/drain profiles, and between-round position shuffling are multi-source consensus; exact profiles, tier counts (25/50/100 reported), and the wattage framing are reconstructions from candidate reports.
