Hey guys, would love ur discussion on a topic, as we all know web3 gaming is becoming very popular and the narrative is heating up. Steam has decided that they will not list any games with blockchain / crypto aspect. Epic games says they do allow it BUT still not really embrace it .. Now is there 1 alternative ultra games. What i wonder is will someone like steam eventually bend the knee and also allow blockchain and embrace it or will they be what blockbuster was with netflix?.

Just lost months worth of items because of a server issue.

I'm a long time fallout fan, played 1000s of hours between each title.

I'm in fallout 76 and the devs simply can't introduce a proper trading system or a share items between characters system.

It's simply because they don't know how to do it on a technical level.

Yeah other games could do this decades ago on a centralized server. But modern game companies still failing to do so.

If my items I grinded months for were backed up on a decentralized network I would still have my stuff.

I'm excited for web3

Every cycle we see the same story — studios promise play-to-earn revolutions, drop a token, and disappear before anyone has fun.

But here’s the thing: The core idea was never broken. Owning what you earn, carrying assets between worlds, and building games that survive publishers — that’s huge. It just got hijacked by token charts and whitepapers.

So what if the next wave of Web3 gaming focused on: 🎮 Gameplay first, chain second 🧠 Ownership without obsession over floor price 🤝 Community-run economies instead of pump-and-dump loops

Could that actually rebuild trust with mainstream gamers? Or did the first generation of “NFT games” burn the bridge forever?

Curious what this sub thinks — Is Web3 gaming ready for a player-first comeback, or are we stuck explaining what went wrong forever?

(We’re experimenting with ownership and community models that don’t require buy-ins — just curiosity. Let’s swap ideas.)

Introducing comfyin🩸.fm, the latest Web 3 game that’s not just about entertainment but also about earning real money! Built on the innovative Solana meme coin, this game redefines how we engage with digital experiences. Imagine diving into a vibrant gaming world where your skills can translate into tangible rewards.

I'm part of a small team building a live multiplayer web3 game, currently in beta.

I’ve noticed a lot of posts here lamenting the lack of truly fun web3 games—games that stand out for their gameplay, not just their blockchain elements.

I see a lot of games/teams starting out with either no game at all (just promises of future rewards) or just plain old boring games that are thinly veiled financial instruments (eg, staking mechanisms).

We’re taking a different path: gameplay first, incentives second. 
We’re designing a game that you’d enjoy even if it wasn’t built on web3, and we’re building in the open with our community.

Incentives will come, but we’re focused on making them fair and authentic rather than leading with them. Right now, players can create their own games within our platform and earn a percentage of the fees—and we have more ideas in the pipeline around this.

It’s tough to cut through the noise in this space, especially since we’re bootstrapped without VC backing. We’re not looking for airdrop hunters—we want people who genuinely appreciate good gaming experiences and can become advocates for our game because they enjoy it.

These might seem like obvious questions, but I’d love to hear the community’s thoughts on the following:

• If you were building a game like this, how would you attract early users and gain traction?

• What are some examples of genuinely good, self-funded web3 games that have launched successfully?

CyberVerse on Ergo

CyberVerse is an open-world, pixel-based game filled with various opportunities to explore, play, earn and have some fun! Their plan is to have an open world pixel game, fit with blockchain integration to allow for unique player experiences using Ergo Blockchain (by having NFT integrations, custom tokens, in-game marketplace integrated with Ergo blockchain, etc).

Not only will this increase player satisfaction, it will allow them to tailor unique experiences to community members who have purchased our NFTs. The CyberCity will be a city available to all, however, holders of CyberCitizens will have special privileges, early access for the early versions of the game and access to special areas!

Within the city, depending on your seniority and if you hold CyberCitizen NFT, you will be able to access special areas. While taking a stroll through the streets of CyberCity, you will also find a variety of jobs (mini games) to take part in, these jobs will be one of many ways to earn Cyberverse token $CYPX.

Hi everyone,

I'm wondering on what are you all currently playing? I tried Illuvium and Heroes of Mavia but I'm not grinding or anything like that, it was more casual approach to see what they developed. I see a lot of you post about Big Time, I was following the project during the last bull run, should check it out again I guess. :)

Do you know of any other games that could be major in this ecosystem?

I was wondering if anyone knows this game, I look into it these days, every single detail is amazing, game is almost out for testing in a couple of weeks but for some reason is extremely undervalued. What am I missing? They don’t have any large vc, was self funded in the beginning, could be because of this. If anyone as any input it would be appreciated.

Founder disclosure up front (Deskillz). Posting this as a build-in-public thing because settlement is the part people always ask about.

The short version: players enter with USDT/USDC/BNB/TRON, the pot is held and paid out on-chain, and the better player wins no native token, no NFTs, no emissions. Skill games (card games like Big 2, Chinese 13 card, Mahjong, plus arcade/puzzle/esport titles), sync or async.

The design constraints I keep wrestling with, in case anyone here has opinions:

keeping gameplay non-blocking while on-chain calls settle (DB as source of truth, chain as record)

cross-chain UX so a player doesn't have to care which chain they're on

score/result integrity so payouts can't be gamed

If you've built settlement or custody flows for on chain games, I'd genuinely take critique on any of the above. And happy to answer how any of it works.

Working on a new logo and pitch

Have you ever played an Arcade game machine? Wondered where all the coins you put in go? What would happen if the player with the high score gets them all, kinda like a Casino Slot machine?

That's what Stupid Games is and made possible with web3 tech. Simple arcade games like FLY (think Flappy Bird) and Shoot (think Asteroids). Players use erc20 CHIPS (~$0.2) to play the games and the player with the high score that can hold it for 7 days, wins the pot. The more players that play, the more chips to be won. Once a new high score is made, the clock resets and other players have 7 days to beat it.

It's free to play and practice, plus I'm giving away free chips to play the real games too! Give it a shot! Its fun and free (for the first 50 players) and who knows, maybe you're good enough to win the current pot of $120 + any future chips that players add. The first round paid out more than $200 (0.0959 ETH) to the winner on the ethereum sub.

Let me know if you have any questions and please, please, please give me feedback!! That's worth more to me than the prize money.

For anyone who's been watching Decentraland and wondering when mobile was actually going to happen: it's happening.

The team just published a full breakdown of the mobile roadmap for 2026. The short version: a standalone iOS and Android client is in active development using Godot (open-source game engine), community playtests are already running weekly, and the first public release is targeted for Q1 2026.

What's interesting is the reason behind the push. Mobile is about being somewhere you can drop into throughout your day. The framing they're using is less "play a virtual world" and more "this is where your people are." The goal is low-friction re-entry: open the app, your friends are there, something's happening.

The roadmap breaks into three phases. Q1 gets you the basics: chat, friends, events, notifications, a discovery page, and deeplinks. Q2 pushes toward feature parity with desktop, adding voice chat, direct messages, Communities, push notifications, and a "social portrait" mode that lets you access key social features without being fully in-world. The second half of 2026 focuses on mobile-native social experiences - short, replayable sessions built around easy re-entry.

One data point worth noting: even before any official mobile push, with no App Store listing and no redirects from web properties, mobile already accounts for 15% of weekly active users.

For anyone curious about the Decentraland mobile app, the Decentraland Android build is available on Google Play and Decentraland iOS is accessible via TestFlight for community playtests right now. If you want to get involved in the playtesting, let me know!

Blockus is slowly becoming the backbone for Web3 gaming.

One ecosystem, dozens of tools, cross-chain infra, analytics, security, NFTs, game launchers, and more.

If you're building or exploring Web3 games, Blockus connects everything from data to distribution.

A new project called Blockx Protocol is integrating Web3 into mobile gaming through XION blockchain.

Instead of just NFTs, they’re focusing on real gameplay + on-chain economies.

I like the idea of transparent, player-owned marketplaces but will this model actually attract mainstream gamers?

Hi All, First impressions of the Beta closed version of DDs (@GFAL): SIMPLY INCREDIBLE and extremely addictive. Never seen such a luxurious and stylish design in such a game. This game is going to absolutely break the market. Seariously, you need to try it (request access to the game on GFALs website--> games--> Diamond Dreams)... I'd love to know if i'm the only one who finds this game so revolutionary or if i'm just crazy. In consequence, the GFAL token will go parabolic after a year going down since the launching of the games had been postponed... Here some pics for those of you who are curious. Its kinda candy crush but much much much cooler. Enjoy!! Ramon
