GameFi has always been an unforgettable concept in the hearts of crypto players. On the one hand, for the players who were present in the last round, GameFi has brought too many wealth myths and innovative crypto experiences. On the other hand, the highlight moments of GameFi seem to have always been fixed in the last bull market. "Always hopeful, always disappointed" is the true feeling of most crypto users towards GameFi in the past two years.
Indeed, most people's hope for GameFi comes from the game mode + Ponzi economic model that can create wealth madly, but the key point lies in how much the market can expand and how long it can last, which depends on the sustainability of external funds entering. But now the attention and liquidity of the entire crypto market are dispersed and difficult to gather. Compared to the "moonlight" GameFi, users may be more willing to spend a few seconds experiencing the joy brought by Memecoin.
In such a volatile market environment, how should crypto games break through? Wizzwoods clearly has its own clear thinking.
Wizzwoods is a cross-chain social pixel farm game supported by Tabichain, spanning the three major ecosystems of Tabichain, Berachain, and Telegram+TON. The project aims to create a comprehensive platform that integrates cross-chain interaction, socialization, and sustainable economic models through games, and has already launched a web plug-in test version on the Berachain test network, and officially launched the official version on Telegram, and will be officially deployed on the Tabichain and Berachain mainnets.
This article will introduce how Wizzwoods breaks through the interaction between chains, integrates financial socialization, and provides new possibilities for the long-term development of GameFi.
The coexistence of potential and challenges, what is the next step for crypto games?
This year, the rise of the TON ecosystem and Telegram Mini Game has brought more possibilities for attracting Web2 users to enter Web3 for GameFi. However, most of the popular games on TON are still stuck in simple "click to earn money" gameplay. Although this simple and crude introduction method has attracted a large number of players to enter the ecosystem in a short period of time, the drawbacks have already been revealed in just over a month: the gameplay is too simple, and the competition is very easy to become saturated. In the end, the simple mode cannot retain users for a long time, nor can it attract new users from outside the circle, which will eventually lead the entire ecosystem into a situation where no one is willing to pay, and it will become powerless.
Not only in the TON ecosystem, but most GameFi projects are still stuck at the level of a single game experience (most projects may not even have any game experience), let alone building the effective social elements and community construction needed for GameFi.
At the same time, the relatively independent game ecosystems between chains limit the expansion of player groups and the liquidity of assets. Even some professional game chains have to admit the current situation of GameFi being "self-sufficient and unable to break through". The lack of cross-chain interoperability means that the interaction between chains has not yet matured, making it even more difficult to bring Web2 users into the Web3 game world.
Faced with this situation, Wizzwoods is trying to combine the experience of past excellent projects and break through the ecological dilemma in its own way, providing a new vision for GameFi, creating a game experience that is truly deep and enduring, and breaking through the limitations of the ecological island to achieve interconnection between chains in the crypto world.
Wizzwoods, a fun encrypted pixel paradise
As the first pixel farm game that truly integrates cross-chain capabilities and SocialFi attributes, Wizzwoods has attracted more than 1.6 million players and over 170,000 daily active users to participate in farm cultivation within 2 months of landing on Telegram Mini Game, with daily revenue exceeding tens of thousands of dollars.
The outstanding data performance confirms the excellence of Wizzwoods, and success is by no means accidental. The innovation of cleverly integrating gameplay and crypto is the key to Wizzwoods being recognized by the market.
Long-term game development
Different from many simple "click to earn money" games, Wizzwoods has put a lot of effort into expanding the playability of the game content. In order to improve the user's gaming experience, Wizzwoods adopts a pixel farm style similar to "Stardew Valley", providing an open world system that can be edited, expandable game content, player interaction system, and SocialFi integration for long-term game development content. Over time, players can continue to advance the changes in the game world. This allows users to join because of the good art style and stay because of the fun gameplay.
Open world editing, a freely moldable pixel fantasy land
Imagination is a precious treasure of humanity, and an unrestricted worldview is the cornerstone of nurturing imagination. Wizzwoods introduces an open world game mode, where users have not just a small piece of land, but a freely editable and expandable custom home. As the level of the home grows, the area of the player's home will continue to expand, allowing for free decoration layout, and even terrain editing that cleverly combines the diverse ideas of players, providing a fertile ground for the development of imagination.
The openness of the game itself is not limited to farm management, and limited tasks and community activities encourage players to actively explore more possibilities for their homes. Combined with the future launch of player interaction and trading functions, Wizzwoods has remarkable long-term potential.
In terms of user invitation mechanisms, Wizzwoods has also put some thought into it, customizing permanent invitation codes. Each time an invited person enters the game through the user's invitation link, the inviter will receive a permanent reward for the invited person's consumption, creating real long-term incentives.

From user habits to on-chain culture, multi-platform social integration
Wizzwoods has a long-term vision for its deployment strategy on multiple platforms. In the test version, Wizzwoods seamlessly integrated with Twitter through a browser plug-in, providing users with an immersive experience through web clicks and social participation. Today, Wizzwoods uses the TON+Telegram mini-program as an entry point, targeting Telegram's huge user base and its easy-to-fission platform characteristics, guiding hundreds of millions of users to seamlessly transition from Web2 to Web3 through Telegram's complete wallet facilities.
The IP cooperation model of Pixels also provides an excellent example of social attributes for Wizzwoods.
By collaborating with communities from different applications, different chain ecosystems, and even different regions, Wizzwoods connects KOLs or native cultural IPs from various chains, consolidating the characteristics of multi-dimensional encrypted communities on one platform. It even provides a natural advertising space for B-end users through the display of IP images, allowing users on both ends to feel the charm of multi-chain interconnection at the level of community culture and IP use cases.
As in the recent joint activity between Wizzwoods and Notcoin, Wizzwoods launched Notcoin-themed building appearances and decorations, providing players with rich and personalized choices, fully demonstrating the charm of brand integration within the TON+Telegram ecosystem.
In the visible future, Wizzwoods will also launch joint cooperation with different brands from more ecosystems to create a rich brand matrix.
Not only fun, but also "Crypto Native"
In addition to exquisite design and thoughtful gameplay, how to deeply integrate the project itself into crypto and make crypto users truly recognize it? Wizzwoods has clearly thought about this.
Seamless integration across multiple platforms, forming a cross-chain arbitrage ecosystem
Unlike other "self-sufficient" independent chain farming games, Wizzwoods, which is aware of the importance of cross-chain interaction for the development of GameFi, innovatively created a cross-chain economic model using Cosmos IBC to achieve real asset cross-chain transactions and production within the game, realizing "cross-chain collaborative value creation".
Cross-chain collaborative value creation may sound a bit convoluted, but simply put, in Wizzwoods' multi-chain plan, data between chains can be traded and circulated. Due to the scarcity of resources resulting from the different resources of each chain, users can participate in cross-chain transactions to promote resource synthesis. Players can improve their village level to increase token output, giving players a clear economic incentive to exchange resources.
This frequent interaction between chains based on the game ecosystem clearly increases the fun and strategic depth of the game, greatly expanding its playability. The trading system composed of multiple chains also gives the game's economic system a deeper capacity, with dynamic self-regulation capabilities far superior to single-chain games.
Deep integration with DeFi tokens?
Currently, Wizzwoods has in-game currencies such as gold coins, silver coins, and $xWIZZ (which will be converted to $WIZZ after being listed on the chain). Since silver coins are purely in-game currency and not linked to real value, it is speculated that Wizzwoods' economic model will revolve around two core tokens: $WIZZ and $Gold. Based on the current use cases of $Gold, it will likely serve as a general in-game token that can be purchased with $WIZZ, while $WIZZ will play a central role in the entire ecosystem, providing multiple use cases within the ecosystem.
The concept of DeFi naturally aligns with the rich gameplay of farming, task systems, cross-chain trading, and consumption designed by Wizzwoods. Wizzwoods cleverly integrates the two, allowing players to naturally participate in DeFi activities during the game.
In combination with Wizzwoods' vision of cross-chain interaction, tokens may be deployed across multiple chains, with highly flexible and adaptable mechanisms for financial gameplay. In the future, there are also plans to guide users to various on-chain DeFi protocols through rich game content, increasing the game's native crypto nature and bringing more value capture possibilities for $WIZZ.
Player's Guide to Entry
As the first TON mini-game supported by Tabichain and incubated by Berachain, Wizzwoods has a strong expectation of "playing a game to interact across multiple chains and ultimately benefit from it". Users can currently experience Wizzwoods through the open Telegram mini-program.
Gameplay Introduction
After adding WizzwoodsBot in Telegram, enter the game and use the free little wizard (Wizard) provided at the beginning to mine resources (mushrooms, slimes, ores), then use the mined resources to upgrade your home. As the level of the home increases, the number of little wizards in the user's home increases, and the efficiency of resource mining also increases. After upgrading the home, the map area can be increased, allowing for the creation of an ideal pixel home with customizable map blocks.
Introduction to In-Game Currency
There are currently three types of currency in the game: silver coins, gold coins, and $xWIZZ. Currently, $xWIZZ can be used to participate in Quidditch guessing activities. Players mainly earn silver coins by completing in-game progress tasks and interacting with monsters in the game. As for gold coins, they can be obtained through in-game purchases, and in the future, a mechanism for purchasing gold coins with $xWIZZ may be introduced.
It is worth mentioning that $WIZZ is the expected airdrop for Wizzwoods in the future, and it is likely to be allocated based on multiple dimensions such as the player's home level and map construction.
Wizzwoods' Genesis NFT, Chrono-wizard-bear, has been sold out and is now available for trading on Opensea. In the future, Chrono-wizard-bear will also be synchronized to the Telegram version, providing long-term empowerment for its holders.
Game Operation
After entering the game, follow the operation guide to click "Harvest mushrooms - Upgrade your home - Claim rewards - Upgrade more wizards and work - Upgrade your home" in a loop. After reaching level 5, a screaming chicken that provides silver coins will randomly appear.
The game also offers a beginner's package for new users, allowing them to purchase 1000 gold coins, 1 Star Wizard (1000 times more efficient than the free character), and various resource packages for $0.99, supporting payments in $TON, $NOT, and $DOGS.
Conclusion
A gentleman can change his nature, and his writing can be magnificent.
When users no longer blindly buy into the narrative/race, changing design concepts and development paths becomes a required course for GameFi and even more crypto applications. Wizzwoods has found a new path: packaging profound crypto concepts into a cute pixel farm game, allowing players to naturally encounter concepts such as cross-chain interaction, DeFi, and SocialFi in a relaxed and enjoyable experience.
Wizzwoods' innovation not only establishes an orderly token economic model and long-term playability for the project, but also expands its practical use cases within the crypto world. Wizzwoods is no longer just a game, but more like a platform that connects the entire crypto world, where every action of the player is connected to a wider range of chains, social media, diverse Web3 protocols, and the infinite possibilities of the crypto universe.
Perhaps this is the development direction that crypto applications need to emulate.
