So, you wanna get started playing blockchain games, do ya?

Well you’re in the right place.

But first, some MORE basics.

In order to play any crypto games, you need the following:

  • Get a cryptocurrency wallet (which is free) to store your virtual currency + NFTs and make in-game transactions. Which wallet you need depends on which blockchain the game was built upon.
  • Since many games are built on the Ethereum blockchain, the MetaMask wallet will work for most of them. 
  • Add funds to your crypto wallet in order to purchase any necessary starter items required to play (not all games require these, as you’ll see. But many of the top games do).
