The Games room in a player-owned house is a place to relax and play some games that rely both on logic and skills in RuneScape. This room can be created at level 30 Construction, costing the player 25,000 coins. Only one Games Room can be built in a player-owned house. Players may also obtain prize keys from winning games, to receive a reward from the prize chest.

Hotspots

There are 5 hotspots available:

• Stone - Two players have separate combat stones, and the first to break their combat stone is the winner. However, bits of the combat stone can fly off and deal damage to the player.
• Ranging game - Various games that test the Ranged skill. The dartboard and archery target require the player to bring their own projectiles.
• Elemental balance - The players must use the elemental spells (air, earth, fire, and water) to put the colour of the orb to white.
• Prize chest - Contains prizes for the winner of the game.
• Game - Various games that do not test a skill, and include treasure hunt, the jester, and hangman.
