    So I wanted to see which players progress within my game through the levels that they can pass.

    For example:

    Player 1 played until the level 5.

    Player 2 until the level 4.

    Player 3 until the level 2.

    Player 4 until the level 3.

    I would like to have a report that shows how many times each phase has been accessed.

    Like that:

    Level:-------| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
    access:-----| 8 | 9 | 5 | 3 | 2 |

    I hope you understand what I'm trying to do.

    And sorry for my bad english.

    Hi @Pedro Luckas,

    Do players access each level sequentially or can they play any level at any time?

    That is, do players have to progress Level 1 -> Level 2 -> Level 3 or can they play level 3 without ever having played level 2?

    Hi,

    To access a level the player has to beat the previous level

    In that case you want to set up a funnel.

    Each step in the funnel is the next level.

    So you can do step one is levelComplete where level = 1
    then step to is levelComplete where level = 2 and so on..

    Or if you have the level's as separate events, you just go level1Complete then level2Complete and so on..

    A staff member might be able to explain this better :)

    Hey @Pedro Luckas,

    Like @lloydg posted, you can create a funnel where each step is a levelComplete event and the value passed would correspond to the level number in your game. Ex. Custom Event: levelComplete, Parameter: level =1

    You would also pass another parameter, number of times accessed, with the custom event so you would be able to view the average number of times a user accessed a particular level. You would then view this information in the Funnel Analyzer page by changing the Drilldown Type to Parameters Overview. In the example I have attached the 'points' column would be replaced with your number of times accessed parameter.

    Just to clarify, send a custom event at the end of each level with the level number and the number of times that level was accessed, and build a funnel that will be populated by that custom event.

    Please let me know if you have any other questions.
