My 7 Best Ideas for Web3 Games
AI summary of the linked articleThe author shares seven ideas for web3 games they would like to see built, arguing that web3 gaming should not try to replicate mainstream triple-A titles. The ideas draw on Warhammer 40k's collectible hobby model, Dwarf Fortress's procedural generation, geospatial games like Ingress and Pokémon Go powered by DePIN, and Stardew Valley's farming genre as a shared autonomous world. Other proposals include in-game agents interacting with the mempool, block reorgs used as a game mechanic, and a custom VM that players can modify, with the author noting that the industry's contrasting debates are worth keeping rather than resolving. |

2 comments Interesting ideas! Re: geospatial games, there used to be a game called Genopets. You'd buy a digital pet (via NFT) and grow it, train it, and fight with others like in Pokemon Go. Not sure how much of the initial vision has been executed but it was interesting - some of my friends even played it for a while.  |
