Upcoming airdrop, how to play the Web3 game platform BlockGames
Author: Meteor, ChainCatcher

Recently, the Web 3 gaming platform BlockGames has gone viral online. The reason behind this is that the project announced social mining for the BLOCK token on March 9 on the X platform, allowing users to accumulate social points by tweeting, reposting, quoting, replying to, and liking content related to the BLOCK topic to gain eligibility for BLOCK airdrops.
Previously, everyone should have experienced social point-based projects, such as Tip, which is backed by the X platform (sharing, liking, commenting, tweeting, blogging, or any other dissemination of content related to Tipcoin helps users accumulate points and obtain TIP) and combines social elements with cryptocurrency, achieving its terrifying "viral marketing" through KOL traffic + Web3 token airdrops, using the X platform's relational network as a traffic entry point to attract users with token airdrop expectations.
Recently, the numerous topics and likes related to BlockGames on the X platform seem to indicate a resurgence of such social projects.
Compared to Tip, BlockGames has a more unique gameplay and background. BlockGames combines a PWA mechanism similar to friend.tech with Tip's social point system and serves as a gaming integration platform. The project previously stated on X: "BlockGames has achieved over 200,000 downloads, over 250,000 transactions, and 200+ game integrations within three months."
Selected for Google Cloud Web 3 Startup Program
BlockGames also has a solid background, having been selected for the Google Cloud Web3 Startup Program in September 2023 and completing a Series A funding round, although the amount and investors have not been disclosed. After joining the Google Web3 Startup Program, BlockGames will automatically gain access to Google Cloud Scale Tier products and can utilize Google Cloud Web3 services.
LinkedIn data shows that BlockGames' CEO is Benas Baltramiejūnas, who initially served at the globally renowned sports brand Nike, primarily working in regional analyst and business manager roles. Benas later founded the rental platform Halo, which simplified the entire rental onboarding process by unifying services related to rental properties into a fully digital tenant experience. The company was subsequently acquired by a real estate giant in 2022.
BlockGames' CTO, Mazvydas Skuodas, has 15 years of industry experience in coding, e-commerce, travel, and cybersecurity.
BlockGames Airdrop Gameplay
Currently, the most关注的 is BlockGames' gameplay. The project has two main gameplay types: social points and game points (green for social points, blue for game points).
Game Points Gameplay
As mentioned earlier, BlockGames also features PWA gameplay, similar to friend.tech. Click to enter the [BlockGames website](https://blockgames.app?referral_code=leo meteor), and add the app to your home screen. You can choose to log in via email or Google account.
After registering and logging into the app, click (Complete your Profile) to complete your personal information.
The personal profile consists of four parts: connecting your X account, connecting your ETH wallet, activating a game experience, and completing a challenge.
Users can choose games they are interested in, click activate, and the app will redirect to the app store for download and installation, allowing for gameplay (simple and easy-to-operate mini-games). It is important to note that the app interface must show that the game is in an ongoing state (Activated) to complete the game activation part, and activation may require some waiting time for verification.
Each mini-game contains several challenges, and completing one of these challenges will allow you to finish your Profile.
In the BlockGames app, users can earn more Pace points by playing games, inviting friends, participating in competitions, and soft staking Dice. Dice is BlockGames' official NFT series, and as of the time of writing, the floor price for BlockGames Dice is 0.769 ETH.
Pace points represent the user's activity level in interacting with games on the BlockGames platform. The more games you participate in, the higher your Pace points. Each Dice NFT will earn 1,000 points, and Dice holders will receive higher points than regular users (from 1 to 10 times weekly accumulation).
Social Points Gameplay
BlockGames' social gameplay is highly similar to Tip. After connecting your X account to the BlockGames app, mention $BLOCK or @GetBlockGames in your tweets (after binding your X account, you can tweet with one click in the BlockGames app), interact with others' posts, and the higher the engagement your posts receive, the more points you accumulate, automatically earning social points weekly.
After completing Profile verification, you can earn double points. Additionally, Dice holders will also receive higher points than regular users (from 1 to 10 times weekly accumulation). Furthermore, social media KOLs will receive corresponding point multipliers, as follows:
10,000 to 25,000 followers: 2x points
25,000 to 50,000 followers: 5x points
50,000 to 100,000 followers: 8x points
100,000 or more followers: 10x points
Conclusion
As the BlockGames white paper and other introductions have not yet been released, according to official website information, the project is currently in the Airdrop Season and Lucky Rolls phase, with the timing for the upcoming community presale and TGE yet to be announced.
Airdrop Season refers to the social and gaming gameplay.
Lucky Rolls is a way to obtain BLOCK tokens before the BLOCK token presale. There are three ways to gain Lucky Rolls: users can contact Dice NFT holders, or go to the BlockGames official Discord to request from Dice holders; remain active on the BlockGames app; participate in BlockGames-related reward activities.
Users who already hold Lucky Rolls can register on the BlockGames presale website and submit their Lucky Rolls code to maximize BLOCK airdrop allocation.
Benas has stated on social media that BlockGames will airdrop 3% BLOCK at TGE. Dice holders will have 100% unlock. Non-Dice holders will receive xBLOCK, which can be exchanged for BLOCK, or wait for 6 months for linear self-unlocking. For the remaining community rewards (22%), there will be a linear unlock over 36 months.
BlockGames previously announced plans to conduct the BLOCK airdrop in the first quarter of this year.
