~ nunjitsu 👅 Not really.

If you get hacked while you’re in the game, the game will tell you that you’re logged into your account on another device already, and force quit you from the game. When you try to log in again, you will not be able to. If they really hacked you (not just for cyberbullying purposes like changing your password), then the secret question won’t work either. Whether or not you chose the secret question option, when you try the secret question feature, it will say “what’s favorite your animal” and if you happened to choose that when you made your account, the answer will definitely be something else. You will not be able to access your account. However, if you can get to the secret puzzle/question, and answer your own answers, then you will get your password. It will probably be something mean or disturbing, but you can change it. Just make sure to change it to something that IS NOT a PBS KIDS default option.

If you are not playing the game at the time you get hacked, you simply won’t be able to access your account when you try to log in again. See above.
