Metacade Capitalises on Back to Work Casual Gaming Boom Bringing 10 Games to 950 Million Telegram Users
London, United Kingdom, September 12th, 2024, Chainwire
Metacade, the best place to play, build, connect and earn onchain, is set to launch ten new games on Telegram, targeting the platform’s 950 million users. The launch comes at a time when interest in casual and mobile games is poised to spike, as research conducted by Metacade reveals Google search volumes for these games increase on average by 80% each September when people return to work after the summer holidays.
The launch includes popular casual games like Pet Hop, Bubble Invasion, Fruit Slice Frenzy, Bird Bump, Mountain Hop, Atlantic Sky Hop, Leave Me Alone, Karate Chop Kick, Surfing Hero, and Wordler. All games will be accessible on both desktop and mobile devices, positioning Metacade to tap into the growing audience of casual gamers on Telegram.
Rockstar Games co-founder and Metacade Advisor, Jamie King, said, “Unlike other Telegram tap-to-play games, every minute you play one of our games you’re earning Tournament credits for free, that can be used on Metacade Tournaments. We believe this is unique along with the introduction of cross-platform compatibility, essentially players can play on mobile and compete against PC users. We’ve not really seen this in the Web3 gaming space and we are really excited to enable players to compete in the way they are most comfortable.”
Metacade’s entrance into Telegram is set to meet the seasonal rise in demand for casual gaming, offering users an engaging way to pass time during their commute or work breaks, and marking a significant step in the platform’s ongoing expansion.
Russell Bennett, CEO of Metacade, commenting on its potential as a hub for casual gaming said, “We’ve already seen promising results with projects like Shockwaves, which launched a standout game on Telegram that breaks away from the usual farming-style offerings. If hyper-casual games keep gaining traction on Telegram and token integration deepens, Metacade and other platforms will undoubtedly experience successes using the platform for future releases.”
Bennett believes that integrating games into Telegram is a game-changer, positioning the app as a “super-app” that seamlessly blends gaming, investing, and content. “Telegram has a real shot at dominating the all-in-one app space,” Bennett noted. “Launching on Telegram is just the start for Metacade, and we’re excited to connect with its vast user base as we look to scale our growth.”
