Hello #ZoneArmy!

We hope you are enjoying playing games on the Zone mainnet! We have surpassed over 100,000 games played in just a few weeks of being live on the Algorand mainnet and are still blazing past milestones!

As usual, Zone devs are working day and night to bring you additional features and awesome games. Let’s see what the team has been up to!

  1. Bird Bump — Another epic game added to the Zone platform!

Zone has expanded its game catalogue with now 6 hypercasual games on offer and many more on the way.

2. Boosted APR for Zone-Zone staking pools! Now earn 20% APR by staking Zone at Algostake!

With our platform surpassing 100,000 games played, we have boosted the APR for Zone staking pool. Stake now!

3. Zone x TigerChiClub NFT Partnership

Zone partnered with the amazing TigerChiClub project to bring their NFTs on the Zone platform as PFPs. If you hold a TigerChi, you can now play on Zone and show-off your PFP on the platform plus with TigerChi running many community tournaments on zone.game, you can easily particapte in them and earn ZONE!

4. Pera Connect Integration

Previously, the default WalletConnect library that most dApps used had quite a few bugs that caused issues with launching Pera Wallet on mobile devices, connecting wallets and even signing transactions. The new and improved Pera Connect solves those issues, resulting in a stable and smooth experience for mobile users.

What’s next?

  1. Adding additional layer of authentication for users

In the immediate future, we will be implementing additional checks and an authentication layer that enhance the overall gaming experience on Zone and improve fairplay significantly.

We’d like to thank our vigilant Zone community members for reporting suspicious behaviour on the platform and assisting in keeping it free from malicious actors. We are listening to all of our users’ comments and making adjustments to our anti-cheat solutions that keep everyone secure! We will be publishing more information on this shortly.

Meanwhile, we encourage users to report any suspicious activity on help.zone.game.

2. ZONE Game Farms Launch!

Zone will soon be launching the revolutionary gamefi primitive called Zone Game Farms on the platform. Game Farms will allow players to farm various tokens by playing games, competing and showing their skills on zone.game. There will be no entry fee for Game Farm pools!

First to go live will be the AFK Game Farms which will be exclusive to AFK holders. This is a ground-breaking bonus utility-unlock for the AFK holders as they will be able to play in these Game Farms without any participation fee, farm tokens every day and enjoy a seamless experience on the platform.

Apart from the AFK Game Farms, Zone will also partner with trusted projects on the Algorand blockchain to launch Partner Game Farms on the platform where users of these partner projects will also be able to play in F2P pools, show their skills and farm tokens!

In the upcoming weeks, we will be launching initiatives with multiple amazing partners on Algorand and beyond!

Stay tuned!
