The concept of tapalok games is simple: by performing simple actions in the telegram application, the user earns in-game currency, which can be spent on expanding the functionality in the game and/ or accumulating coins in anticipation of their listing on the stock exchange and further growth of the project.
Not all tap games deserve to spend time on them. It is worth choosing projects that have been launched by teams with a reputation in the industry, have received support from major players in the sector, and have also shown rapid growth. Here are a few games worth paying attention to.
OKX Racer
OKX Racer is a Telegram gaming mini-application developed by OKX crypto exchange. This is the first such project created by a large crypto exchange. Within the first day after the launch, OKX Racer attracted more than 1.2 million users.
The essence of the game is to predict the movement of the bitcoin price in an interval of five seconds. The user needs to click on the red button, predicting a decrease in the price of bitcoin, or on the green button, predicting the growth of the coin. Players get points for making correct predictions. These points can be spent on improvements in the game: increasing the number of points earned or increasing the volume of the gas tank, which provides the player with fuel for making a forecast.
OKH also promises "surprises" to those who link their exchange account to the mini-application.
DOGS
DOGS is a mini-application in which there is no game plot, and the user does not need to click. Points are awarded for the age of the Telegram account and the availability of a premium account. The number of users in DOGS has already exceeded 10 million.
Upon registration in the application, the user receives welcome bonuses. The earlier he registered in the messenger, the higher his reward. Then he needs to log in to the app daily and get extra points. Premium account holders receive an additional 300 coins. In the DOGS bot, you can link your TON wallet and get bonuses for it. Rewards are also awarded for inviting friends.
BLUM
Blum is a tap—to-earn game, which in the future should become a hybrid cryptocurrency service in Telegram, including an exchange platform, a wallet and tools for managing tokens. The application was created by former top managers of the Russian division of the Binance exchange - Vladimir Smerkis, Gleb Kostarev and Vladimir Maslyakov. In the spring, it was among the winners of the seventh season of the Most Valuable Builder accelerator, conducted by Binance Labs.
The essence of the game is as follows: participants need to catch flowers falling on the screen and at the same time avoid hitting bombs, for clicks on which points are reduced. Users can get additional bonuses for completing tasks, for example, subscribing to Telegram channels, inviting friends and watching videos on YouTube. Also, for regularly visiting the application and starting farming through the Start Farming button, users are awarded a little more than 57 Blum points every 8 hours. If you take a break from the game, the number of tolerances for playing with colors decreases.
Catizen
Citizen is a Telegram mini―game for cat lovers, which has already gathered more than 26 million users. During the game, participants breed cats and perform various tasks. In the future, the project team plans to convert the points received by the players into CATI tokens. Users will receive 41% of the total token issue.
The Catizen team has also developed tools that allow other developers to easily launch their games on Telegram and on the TON platform. Telegram creator Pavel Durov commented on the team's success: "Well done, the Catizen team - now I'm waiting for you to develop Dogizen!".
In addition, of the $16 million earned from in-app boost purchases, 1% was allocated to help stray cats.
YesCoin
YesCoin is a Telegram game, which differs in that you do not need to click on the screen, but move your finger. By mid-July 2024, it already has more than 10 million users. Game participants can receive additional points for inviting friends, as well as use special boosts that increase the efficiency of Yescoin mining.
Recently, access to the game became possible through the official wallet of the OKX exchange. This is an important stage for the project, as the OKX exchange is an active partner of the TON ecosystem and was one of the first platforms on which NOT started trading.
