Game Center
Game Center, as the user sees it, is an application on an iOS device where information about a user’s games is aggregated. This information includes a place to log in and manage your account, a list of friends, and a list of games. For each listed game, there are a number of leaderboards for displaying scores, as well as a list of the achievements available in the game. Figure 9–1 shows a typical Game Center screen.
