Web3 Games Play to Earn: Evolution or Empty Promises?

Web3 Games Play to Earn: Balancing Fun and Blockchain Tech Web3 gaming was meant to be a game changer, combining the fun of video games with the innovation of blockchain. It was supposed to change the gaming landscape with decentralization, play-to-earn, and ownership of digital assets through NFTs. But as the market matures the question is: is Web3 gaming getting better or going in the wrong direction? While there are complaints about some of the current games, there are many examples of better tech, better player experience, and innovative use of token-based mechanics that add to the game. Early Web3 Gaming Hits In the early days of Web3 gaming, several games caught the attention of gamers and investors. These were the pioneers, introducing new ways to interact with digital worlds. Their appeal was in the uniqueness of owning in-game assets and the ability to earn real-world value through play. Games like Axie Infinity and CryptoKitties became household names in the Web3 space and caused a lot of hype and interest. These early games used blockchain to ensure transparency and scarcity of digital asset ownership. They introduced mechanics for trading, selling, or breeding digital creatures or items and added an economic layer to the game. The concept of play to earn was very compelling, allowing players to earn money by playing the game. But these games had their limitations. Many were simple in terms of game mechanics and focused too much on the economic aspect which sometimes overshadowed the game itself.

Something Went Wrong in the World of Decentralized Games: 3 out of 4 GameFi Projects Failed

Now it’s hard to say why people didn’t believe in the games. After all, what could be better than playing and also getting real money or valuable virtual things for it.

Most of the apps that used to be trending are now in a “lethargic sleep” because players have lost interest in the industry.

It turns out that more than 75% of games in the GameFi sector are now “frozen” due to the fact that they lack user attention. Since 2018, about 2,800 gaming applications have appeared in the Web3 world, and 2,127 of them no longer exist. In fact, 3 out of 4 gaming services can now be considered history.

And the glorious history of GameFi began with CryptoKitties. In this game you had to buy, breed and trade unique digital kittens, each of which had its own unique properties.

According to data from the Ethereum blockchain, about 56,000 transactions have been made in the game over the past 30 days. In November, there was increased user activity, and sales reached $4. However, the app has experienced some slowdown in growth, losing 48.79% of its transaction volume over the past few months.

What am I driving at? 

It seems to me that the GameFi industry is simply ahead of its time and people are not yet ready for such changes. Existing projects may also become a thing of the past, and new ones will take their place, but no one knows for sure.

Well, we, friends, are moving on, and many new products await us in the Meta Force Metaverse, and in our Game zone as well, which is scheduled for release in 2024.

صعود وسقوط NFTS

مقدمة: صعود NFTS والنقوشاندلعت الرموز غير القابلة للانفجار في التيار الرئيسي كصف جديد للأصول الرقمية في عام 2017 ، ووعد بملكية يمكن التحقق منها للعناصر الرقمية الفريدة على blockchain.كانت التجارب المبكرة مثل cryptokitties تلمح إلى الإمكانات ، ولكن كانت طفرة NFT 2021 ، التي تم تجسدها من خلال مبيعات الفن الرقمي بملايين الدولارات وتصوير الملفات الشخصية المطلقة (PFP) ، التي عززت NFTs في الزيت الثقافي.من خلال تمثيل الفن والمقتنيات والمزيد من الرموز على Ethereum ، قدمت NFTS مفهوم الندرة الرقمية والملكية بطريقة يمكن للمستهلكين فهمها.حتى أن هذه الحركة توسعت إلى عملة البيتكوين في عام 2023 مع ظهور نقوش المراسيم ، وهو بروتوكول يسمح بأن يكون ساتوشيس الفردي "منقوش" بالبيانات. شهدت Bitcoin ، التي يعتقد بشكل عام غير مضياف لـ NFTS ، أن تبرز نسختها الخاصة من NFTs عبر الأوامر ، حيث تعاملت مع الكسور الصغيرة من BTC كمقتنيات فريدة من نوعها.معا ، فتحت NFTs على Ethereum والنقوش على Bitcoin حقبة جديدة من الثقافة على السلسلة والاستثمار المضاربة ، مما خلق ما رأى الكثيرون أنه أ فئة الأصول الجديدة من مقتنيات التشفير.ومع ذلك ، كما هو الحال مع الابتكارات السابقة ، تبعت دورات الضجيج السريعة. سرعان ما أصبحت قصة سوق NFT قصة من الصعود والهبوط البرية ، وهو هوس من الجنونات المثيرة للشراء والموافقات المشاهير ، يليه تمثال نصفي مؤلم كما تم تحديد الواقع.في هذا التقرير ، Cryptoslate سوف يغوص في مسار Boom-Bust هذا: من الذروة المنهكة لـ NFT وتكهنات النقش ، من خلال الانهيار اللاحق في النشاط والقيمة ، إلى البحث الحالي عن الاستقرار والمعنى في أعقاب ذلك. سنقوم بتغطية اللحظات الثقافية (من الفن الرقمي الفيروسي إلى المقتنيات السياسية) والبيانات على السلسلة (أحجام التداول وإحصائيات المحفظة والمزيد) ، مما يعكس ما تكشفه هذه الدورات حول الثقافة الرقمية والمضاربة المالية في صناعة التشفير.

The State of NFT Games in 2025 – Where Are We Now and What’s Next?

NFT games have come a long way since the early days of CryptoKitties and Axie Infinity. In 2025, the NFT gaming industry looks very different. So what’s happening now—and what should we expect in the near future?

From Hype to Maturity

In 2021–2022, nft games exploded with hype. Projects promised players massive earnings and full ownership of digital worlds. But as with most booms, a bust followed. Many games didn’t deliver, and the market cooled. Fast forward to 2025, and the space has evolved:

Better Games: We’re seeing actual games, not just finance models with gaming layers. Think action RPGs, MMORPGs, and full 3D metaverse experiences.

More Regulation: Countries are starting to treat in-game earnings like income or assets. It’s forcing projects to be more transparent and stable.

Hybrid Models: Many games now use a mix of free-to-play and play-to-earn systems. Players don’t need to spend hundreds just to start playing.

Top NFT Games in 2025

Some of the most active and respected games this year include:

Illuvium: A high-quality, open-world RPG with Pokémon-style gameplay and incredible graphics.

Big Time: A time-traveling RPG with online games and team-based gameplay.

Shrapnel: A first-person shooter where players can own and trade in-game assets.

These games focus more on fun and gameplay than just tokenomics, which is what the space truly needed to evolve.

The Role of AI and Interoperability

Another big leap in 2025 is the integration of AI. Games now use AI to generate dynamic missions, adapt difficulty, and even create NFT items tailored to players’ styles.

Interoperability is also improving. Some projects let you use NFTs across multiple games, or move your assets between different chains (like Ethereum, Polygon, or Avalanche). This creates a more connected gaming ecosystem.

Challenges That Remain

Scams Still Exist: Rug pulls are less common but still a problem.

Tokenomics Balance: Some games struggle to maintain a healthy economy where new players can enter without inflating rewards.

Mainstream Skepticism: Many gamers are still skeptical of NFTs, seeing them as cash grabs.

What’s Next?

Here’s what we can expect over the next couple of years:

Mainstream Studios Join In: Big names like EA, Activision, and Sony are experimenting with Web3.

Better UX: Easier onboarding, no need for crypto wallets just to play.

Esports Integration: Competitive NFT games with real money prizes will become a thing.

Final Thoughts

The NFT gaming space is still young, but it’s maturing fast. If you’re into gaming, tech, or crypto, this is an exciting space to watch—or jump into. Just do your research, avoid hype traps, and look for projects with real gameplay, real communities, and real value.
