Oh hey @JoyKT !

Just like the Benji Bananas Pass, players who purchase Operation Ape pass will be able to convert earned $DOSE into ApeCoins! There is more info available on their website, here’s what I know:

Link to Official Dustland Operation Ape Information: https://ape.thedustland.com/

I’ll do a writeup soon about how Animoca handled their passes. It will likely be a different method that is used for this company, so I don’t want to speculate, as they are unique entitity altogether.

These aren’t controlled nor governed by ApeCoin DAO, instead they are independent companies adopting ApeCoin as a token that is swappable for their native token, ie: $DOSE or $PRIMATE.

I’ve got new announcements and information about these ApeCoin games.

Additionally, I’ll start including some information about upcoming projects that will be building within Yuga Labs Otherside. It’s a great time for building within the Ape ecosystem and many here are interested.

If you have news or secret alpha: send me direct message. I will be discreet if requested.

Benji Bananas has deployed the games liquidity pool and launched $PRIMATE on multiple exchanges. Players will earn this token in the game, which can be then be swapped for ApeCoin.

We’re still awaiting additional information. The Lightpaper is now available and the earning campaign details are expected to be released this week! You can read the lightpaper here:
https://benji-bananas-pass.gitbook.io/benji-bananas-primate-token-lightpaper/

Additionally, there is still an upcoming AIP proposal to add to the earning pool of this game.

Dustland has announced their pass will be minting soon. Currently users can get onto the allowlist by completing ingame achievements or burning a small amount of Dustland’s Kettlemine NFT.

Complete information on the allowlist and mint are available @

  • Gets access to Operation Ape side missions
  • Earns from a dedicated DOSE reward pool
  • Opens up rare crafting items in future Ape ops

This is one of the most unique use-cases for gaming NFTs as it requires physical activity and a focus on daily fitness goals. The Ape Pass is announced to mint in the coming weeks of May.

Life Beyond has begun airdropping Arpartment keys to Bored Apes and users who have signed up for the June Open Alpha. Soon gamers will begin running missions on Life Beyond’s planet of Dolos.

Darewise team has expanded to larger numbers than I had previously reported, now at over 100 team members. They are creating this MMO and have hinted at creating others as well in the future.

After recent acquisition made by Animoca and possible connection Improbable.io, this is one to watch.

…I’ve got so many announcements regarding Otherside communities and planned projects…

COMING SOON BREAK ON THROUGH TO THE OTHERSIDE LFG

I’m excited to introduce Tales From The Wild - Play 2 Earn, Read 2 Earn, Watch 2 Earn

GAME INFORMATION
Tales From The Wild says they are building the next Harry Potter. Their 2222 avatar collection has just sold out and revealed. DOORS is a stoytelling studio 30+ professional authors and scriptwriters that have been active since 2019. Recently they’ve joined Ubisoft Entrepreneur’s Labs.

  • Browser-based MMO starting Open Alpha in mid-June
  • Earn ApeCoin from their liquidity treasury pool - see more below
  • More than Play 2 Earn - Read 2 Earn& Watch 2 Earn Incentives

This game has a very transparent earning pool. It’s a great example of how companies and games can integrate ApeCoin as incentives to their community and player bases. It’s exciting to dive into their active discord & twitter community, and they just may deliver on “being the next Harry Potter.”

WHY I’M EXCITED
This is a great example of how a game and project can incorporate ApeCoin as incentives in a transparent way. Additionally, these players become small holders of ApeCoin who are now invested in our ecosystem and the future of ApeCoin as a whole. I’m very happy to see this!

There’s a couple of notable gaming things happening this month! They involve many Apes in the community, so I definitely want to highlight what’s happening. Let’s talk about some cool gaming stuff!

BENJI BANANAS
The reward campaign for Benji Bananas play-to-earn has started recently. Players are being rewarded in $PRIMATE token for holding the passes, each week recieving a drop of primate that has averaged ~$100 in tokens each time. Competitive ingame rewards will start soon too!

Week one and two rewards have been sent, week 3 snapshot ends…today? Requires KYC so be sure to do your own research if you jump into the Benji Bananas project and want a quick reward.

LIFE BEYOND
Don’t sleep on this one. In an above post here, the CEO of Darewise announced an airdrop to all the Bored Apes holders. In your wallets should be a pass for Open Alpha starting at the end of June.

Additionally, it’s now been confirmed that Life Beyond has been partnered with Improbable since ~2018, so the tech used in Otherside will be present in this game. Animoca acquired a large percentage of Darewise(parent company of Life Beyond) in early April. Life Beyond could be the earliest look into what the Otherside is like - and each Ape holder has a key with exclusive benefits.

NFT holders, or including APEcoin holders?

Hey @GameFive! BAYC/MAYC NFT holders received the airdrop from Life Beyond. The company has mentioned that they will be finding ways to incorporate Apecoin, which is why I follow & highlight them.

They have an Open Alpha that can be played by anybody. It’s only a few of their group missions that are available to be played, but it’s an early taste of what the game mechanics will be. Check it out!

Yuga Lab’s Otherside Metaverse had a successful tech demo over the weekend. Truly it’s shaping up to be “the pride,” of Apecoins ecosystem. There are very few moments in gaming history where users have gathered in such large numbers. The technology built by Improbable.io beat expectations!

We had an early look into Kodas, even meeting more, who landed on Otherside as an event. Ending with a great boss battle, users had to throw themselves at an enormous evil Koda. Ultimately successful in this endeavor, the First Trip came to an end with a short teaser clip.

All users who attended this trip had their Otherdeed NFTs updated to reflect their participation, giving us a first look into ways that dynamic NFTS can be used for users of this new metaverse.

Afterwards, there was a party where Improbable.io’s CEO Herman celebrated and talked about game design in general. There was enormous amount of twitter buzz during the Saturday tech demo, if you weren’t able to attend the afterparty, here’s the link to listen! (available till august 16th)

In so many ways, the technology that our metaverse is being built on exceeds the capabilities of any game that has come before it. ApeCoin is responsible for powering The Otherside, the first of metaverse that will be created on this new technology. There is such a bright future just ahead of us!

In case it’s helpful, I put together a fairly comprehensive list of Twitter accounts to follow related to Blockchain gaming. Would love recommendations on other people to add. https://twitter.com/i/lists/1446304183355727876

Hey thank you for sharing! Glad to have you on the forums too. I’ll check out the list & expand my horizons. So far I’ve been pretty focused on just whats happening w/ apecoin connected games.

It’s been a quiet last few months for gaming news. I think we’ll see an uptick in notifications & news surrounding the topic of Apecoin related gaming. It’s fun to join the new projects & games!

Here’s what the ecosystem projects are currently doing:

Benji Bananas continues to launch reward campaigns! Additionally, they’ve now opened up a public discord server to further connect their community together and provide new experiences.
https://discord.gg/BenjiBananas

Dustland’s Operation Ape missions are now live! Pass holders can earn $DOSE token through exercise & play exclusive missions through this fitness / audio adventure on Android & iOS.
https://twitter.com/thedustland

Life Beyond continues to test & release new alpha content for their upcoming AAA MMO. It hasn’t been stated how or if they have any immediate $APE integration planned. Stay tuned!
https://twitter.com/lifebeyond

Tales From The Wild has unfortunately folded due to economic conditions. They were advised to consider seeking a grant from ApeCoin. I will no longer be covering news related to this project.

Additionally, a couple of games have asked for grants to join our ecosystem or expand what they are currently doing. As these decisions are made by the DAO, I look forward to talking about them!

A new Benji Bananas season starts today! Users must play a minimum of 10 games between October 14th → 27th to be eligible to earn $PRIMATE. They continue to adjust the weighting for different stats to tune the rewards. In this event, the following stat weights will be used & more info available on Benji’s Discord:

  • Furthest Distance (40%) — the furthest distance you achieved in a single game during the event phase.

  • Total Distance (40%) — The total distance achieved during the event phase.

  • Furthest World (10%) — the highest world you achieved in a single game during the event phase

  • Total Bananas (10%) — the total amount of bananas collected during the event phase.

Note: You must play a minimum of 10 games over the event phase period for your scores to be calculated for eligible rewards

Anyone can play Benji Bananas on Android & iOS. To be eligible for $PRIMATE/$APE rewards, users must hold a Benji Bananas Membership Pass, available on OpenSea & other marketplaces. Lets swing!

Love this! Personally holding Benji and playing it, got more than 50+ Apecoin so far. I also have a Dustland and I’m running almost everyday, tho the Dose coins are not liquid at the moment, meaning you can’t exchange them for Apecoins. I’ve done some reasearch on that MMO and personally don’t like it much xD. Great thread 0x!

Someone to help me to do more than 2000m ? :sweat_smile:

Haha, just need to upgrade the power ups and you’ll be good I believe. One thing that helps with bananas is to always watch the video that gives you 2x for the run you make.

A strategy that worked w/ me for Benji Bananas was: Not increasing the Swing Boost powerup until I was comfortable. It makes you go much faster, but also makes Benji harder to control. I still don’t have that stat maxxed out. Though for World 6, Slip Slap…It does help to have points into Swing Boost!
