Exploring Telegram Mini Games on BNB Chain

The world of Telegram Mini-Games is buzzing with activity, especially within the BNB Chain ecosystem. 

The growing interest is evident from recent moves by major institutions, including Binance Labs' investment in Gomble (who launched EggDrop, their first telegram mini game building on BNB Chain). These developments highlight Telegram Mini-Apps' role as a gateway to Web3 and a potent tool for crypto marketing on Telegram.

What are Telegram Mini-Apps?

Telegram Mini-Apps are lightweight applications that seamlessly integrate within the Telegram ecosystem. They provide users with an easy and accessible entry point into Web3 services, eliminating the need for separate downloads. 

This integration enhances user engagement by allowing direct interaction with decentralized exchanges (DEXs), NFT marketplaces, and smart contract applications within Telegram chats. Such seamless access encourages further exploration and adoption of Web3 technologies.

BNB Chain and Telegram: A Perfect Match

With approximately 900 million users globally, Telegram is highly popular among crypto enthusiasts. Its native support for Web3 has made it a strategic distribution channel for BNB Chain native mini dapps. The following are notable examples of mini-games on BNB Chain:

1. Eggdrop by GombleGames

GombleGames, the crypto arm of 111%, is a seasoned game development studio specializing in casual games. They have raised $10 million from top investors including Binance Labs, Spartan, Animoca, Hashed, and Altos Ventures. 

Leveraging its exceptional track record of over 100M users and $200M+ revenue through 150+ games, they have introduced Egg Drop – a fun and easy-to-play game within the Telegram ecosystem. The game’s unique 1% token allocation has drawn significant player interest, making it a standout compared to traditional Telegram games. 

How to play:

2. Let’s Throw Slime by Skyark Chronicles

SkyArk Studio, one of the nine projects selected for Binance Labs' Incubation Program, introduces an engaging game where players launch a slime from a catapult. The objective is to travel the longest distance possible while navigating through various obstacles and monsters. The game features interoperable NFT assets and on-chain points on BNB Chain and opBNB.

How to play:

• Launch Your Slime: Control a slime launched from a catapult, aiming to travel the longest distance possible.
• Navigate Obstacles: As your slime glides, it encounters various monsters. Impacts with these monsters reduce its speed due to friction.
• Boost Your Journey: Hitting spectral monsters can greatly boost your distance with their special abilities.
• Game Over: The game ends when the slime's speed reaches zero, and your distance is recorded.

Players can enhance their gameplay through various upgrades, including:

• Slime Upgrades: Improve your slime's abilities.
• Special Monster Upgrades: Increase the effectiveness of spectral monsters.
• Buffs: Acquire buffs to increase coin drops, speed, and other parameters.
