The eighth annual Games Master Challenge began on November 25, 2013 and concluded on December 2, 2013. Each day, users were given several Games Room related challenges by Aristotle A. Avinroo to complete.
After Brains beat Brawn and Ninjas beat Pirates in previous years, this year saw Team Sun lead by Siyana compete with Team Moon led by Princess Lunara. Players could join one of the two teams to help them win the competition. The two teams received some different challenges to each other.
