Gala Games was formed by experienced game developers aiming to return value to players through Web3 and blockchain technology. The team’s founders recognized serious issues with how today’s top publishers push players to keep spending in order to continue enjoying a game. Moving away from that approach, Gala is building a large platform of AAA-grade games (with many titles free to play) to offer players greater freedom, control, and rewards.

GALA is the digital utility token powering the Gala ecosystem. By introducing GALA, the network provides a secure, practical way for participants in the Gala ecosystem to handle payments and settlement. It also serves as the ecosystem’s operating fuel. GALA is the main reward method for the Founder's Nodes, which receive GALA every day as long as they satisfy the Distribution requirements. With GALA, users can buy NFTs tied to games like Town Star and purchase licenses for node offerings including Founder's Nodes through the Gala Games store.
