Step-by-step guides for individual games: how to start, what things cost, and what to watch for.
Audiera is the web3 continuation of the Audition dance franchise — a rhythm game where the NFT layer is creator-content (mint your tracks) rather than equipment. It’s free to play and unusually multi-surface: browser dApp, Android, and a Telegram mini-game. Here’s the path — with one honesty note on its marketing numbers. What Audiera actually…
Amiko Legends — Aurory‘s extraction creature-collector, formerly known as Seekers of Tokane — is one of the genuinely free starts in the registry: open beta playable with no wallet, no purchase, no NFT. Here’s how to get in and where the optional crypto layer sits. Which Aurory is which, today Aurory’s current live product is…
Aavegotchi is the ghost-pet universe that survived its own architecture change twice — chain and now studio. Pixelcraft is handing stewardship to AavegotchiDAO through 2026, the game runs live on Base, and you can explore the Gotchiverse without owning anything. Here’s the honest path in. Which Aavegotchi is which, today The name now covers an…
My Pet Hooligan is a paid early-access social shooter — a chaotic cartoon open-world where your hooligan causes mayhem against AMGI’s AI overlord. The honest framing: it’s one of the few “NFT game” cases where the blockchain layer is in transition — development restarted in January 2026 after downtime, the Polygon contract ended in 2025…
NFL Rivals is the NFL’s officially licensed arcade football game for phones — free to play, built by Mythical Games, and quietly the most mainstream on-ramp to NFT player cards anywhere.

The start is a straight line: install the official app, play, and leave the NFT layer alone until you actually…
Catizen is Telegram’s top-grossing game — a cat-merging mini-app that grew into a 30-title Game Center.
