The Arcade games are completely free to play – you don’t even need to own any crypto. I took a spin at a few of them and was hit with all the nostalgia of old-school arcade games plus the new wave of crypto magic.

There are currently four active arcade games: Coiin-Man (sponsored by Nolan Bushnell and the Atari movie), Astrominer, DAO Invaders, and Hack & Hash (sponsored by Age of Rust). More games will be added in the coming months.

The puzzles scattered throughout the arcade are meant to be challenging pushes to your creativity. Everyone is encouraged to work togETHer as the puzzles can be challenging for just one person to solve. For example, you may be asked to go somewhere specific in the world, and while you might not be anywhere close to that place, someone else on the internet will be. So get out there, meet fellow crypto enthusiasts, and have fun sleuthing! Prizes can easily be split among a group.
