What games do you think of when someone mentions that they are a gamer? For some, multiplayer online battle arena games like League of Legends, or Defence of the Ancients might come to mind. Still others might talk about shooter games like Call of Duty or Overwatch. There are also plenty of other games like Civilisation or Minecraft, which let players start with nothing and build grand structures or empires.

Many of these games have something in common- staying power. They have devoted communities that continue to play them long after they have been released. Even older games that were designed for the very first computers, like Dwarf Fortress, have their own community that keeps the game alive.

But these are games that belong in the Web2 space- they don’t run on blockchain technology, and more often than not, rely on centralised servers of data to keep the game running.

Yet the Web3 space itself is home to its own games- the most prominent of which is probably Axie Infinity.

But ask any gaming fanatic, and you’d be hard pressed to find someone not in the crypto space who can name another Web3 game.
