Get excited! The BlockGames App is just around the corner
--
It’s time to start flexing those fingers and thumbs and understand that your cell phone experience will never be the same again. That’s right, the wait is almost over. Our followers know that we’ve been working our way to bringing you the BlockGames App for well over a year. Well, now it’s almost here, and we’re primed to play and party! With over 100 mobile games from leading developers and publishers, the time for endless fun and instant rewards, with real value, is nearing touchdown.
Access to the App will be prioritized as follows:
- BlockGames DICE owners.
2. Holders of early access codes from BlockGames collaborators.
3. Public access (date to be determined).
The BlockGames App release will take place in the following stages:
- Internal testing (in finalization stages)
- Upcoming exclusive testnet with eligible community members.
- DICE owners with DICE multiplier and $BLOCK Airdrop accumulation.
- BlockGames early access code owners, contingent on closed test results.
- Full public access.
In addition, the 555 DICE held within the BlockGames Treasury will be redistributed to the community and collaboration partners through various activations. DICE from the treasury will carry a lower-end multiplier.

Here’s a quick heads up on the things you need to know and basic expectations to participate in our testnet launch:

Fun and data sovereignty, wrapped in one
When you log into the Player Network and enter your details, some real magic begins to take place. Firstly, you’ve taken the first step in creating your unique Universal Player Profile (UPP). Powered by Web3 technology, this means you own your own data and receive direct value by sharing it, all whilst playing your favorite games. In a world where the new privacy policies imposed by the App Store and Google Play Store make personalization extremely difficult, BlockGames is building a new feature where players and publishers can exchange value without loss of access to, or abuse of, end-user data.
Put simply, if you decide to leave the BlockGames Player Network for any reason, you take your data with you and we can’t use it. Your UPP and the data tied to it are valuable and we recognize this. And that’s why, as you explore and play games and interact, we reward you handsomely and regularly for sharing it and allowing us to use it to optimize and personalize your gaming experiences. Even if you’re not the type of person who thinks much about what’s going on under the hood, we thought this would still be something you’d like to know.
Now you’ve logged in, it’s time to begin
So now that you know about your UPP, and you’re inside the Player Network, it’s time to start running, hunting, shooting, blasting, leveling up, bashing bosses, and breaking stuff. Oh…and for when all of that gets a bit too much we have some great puzzle games to help you chill out.
So go ahead and activate your favorite games and remember…the more mayhem you cause, and the more puzzles you solve — and the more of doing whatever else it is you love doing in games — the more goals you reach and the more credits you earn. And it’s all about credits! Let’s talk about how games connect with credits.
How credits work
Credits are awarded for completing in-game tasks and challenges with everything viewable inside the app. Milestone challenges differ for each game but typically include reaching new levels, completing worlds, and beating bosses. At any time, you can view any credits you’ve accumulated in the ‘Vault’ tab.
Credits can be redeemed for tickets to enter contests, or exchanged for other goodies such as gift cards, digital collectibles, tokens, and cash. Challenges will vary from game to game, and goals must be reached within the designated time to win the credits. There is no limit to how many credits you can accumulate.
At any time, if you want to track your progress, and see how many credits and other loot you have, head to the BlockGames App where you can quickly view your accumulating assets.
Early access — coming soon!
We expect the BlockGames Player Network to enter a period of explosive growth. One of the key drivers for this growth will be our highly incentivized referral program. When this launches anyone with existing access will be rewarded with credits for inviting friends. And when those friends invite other friends, further credits are distributed to the primary invitee. For a deeper dive into this and other BlockGames’ rewards mechanics for players, head here.
That’s all for now. We’ll be coming to you with more updates soon, but in the meantime, stay locked to the BlockGames Discord and X frequencies, and don’t miss a beat.
BlockGames is the world’s first cross-chain, cross-game Player Network, accelerating user acquisition for games and real rewards for players.
