Gaming is defined as the play of specialized applications known as electronic games or video games on game consoles such as the Xbox and Playstation, as well as on personal computers (in which case the activity is known as online gaming). A gaming interface, in its most advanced form, can be considered a form of virtual reality and now gaming has moved into another level its crypto gaming.

While traditional games are centralized, which means that all items and experience (XP) earned in one game cannot be transferred to another. So, by incorporating blockchain technology into crypto gaming, this has changed. Players can now transfer their rewards and items between cryptocurrency gaming platforms. The concept is very simple, rather than purchasing a game outright or investing money in a free-to-play title, the game would pay you to play it, with built-in incentives to reward your time and, in some cases, a small financial stake in the company that created it. Just like the gaming that we have on our Solana ecosystem but, before anything else what is Solana?

In this article, we are going to have an overview of the gaming projects which are currently built on Solana.
