The NFTVideoGames registry passed a hundred tracked games on September 22, 2026 — 103 records, each carrying a status verified against primary sources and a dated re-review. This is a snapshot of what that set contains as of that date: who is alive, who is not, who is dying, and what the distribution says about…
In 2021, BNB Chain — then Binance Smart Chain — was the densest GameFi habitat ever assembled: low fees, fast blocks, and a retail audience primed by play-to-earn made it the default launchpad for a generation of NFT games. The NFTVideoGames registry now tracks 24 verified BNB records, and the chain’s 2021 cohort is the…
Blockchain gaming is eleven years old — older than most people assume, and stranger than the “Axie, then everything died” version. The NFTVideoGames registry now holds dated, evidence-backed records for 165 games whose playable dates span 2017 to this month — asset-tokenization history reaching back to 2015: the games that invented the genre’s mechanics, the…
Did the chain decide whether an NFT game lived? Across the registry’s 165 records, the honest answer is: the chain didn’t kill them, but it didn’t save them either — survival tracks who a chain hosted, not the chain itself. Measured by verified status, the spread is real: Polygon carries the deadliest cohort (7 of…
Does paying to start an NFT game make it likelier to survive? Across the 165-record registry, the answer is flatly no — and the honest version is more interesting than either marketing story. Charging entry never protected a game; the specific place a game put its NFT layer did. The numbers, by access model “Endings”…
A licensed IP is supposed to be the safest foundation an NFT game can have — a built-in audience, real brands, official sanction. The registry’s licensed set tells a different story: a third of the twelve licensed-IP records have already ended, a worse share than the registry average — and in two of the four…
“Paused” is the politest status a blockchain game can claim — servers off or development frozen, roadmap shelved, but an explicit promise that this is not the end. The NFTVideoGames registry carries ten paused records, and the measured pattern is uncomfortable: the only same-operator return in the set — Axie Classic‘s 2024 revival — is…
Blockchain games die in at least twenty-five documented ways. Coming back is rarer — but the verified registry now holds a dozen documented revival attempts: IP acquisitions, community takeovers, engine restarts, token rebuilds and chain hops. Some produced a genuinely living game. Most produced a holding pattern. This is what the record says about who…
Pirate Nation died twice. The game went offline on September 18, 2025 — nearly a year before its developer, Proof of Play, announced on August 4–5, 2026 that the studio itself was ceasing operations. Keeping those two events separate is the key to understanding what happened to the NFTs, the token, the code and the…
“The game moved to another blockchain” sounds like one event. In practice it can mean several very different things — cards bridged to a new network, balances moved to a different chain than the assets, contracts redeployed while old ones freeze, or a game shut down entirely while its assets were absorbed into a wider…
