The game developer Viker and the startup Zebedee have joined forces as part of a partnership. Together, the two companies want to offer game rewards in the form of the cryptocurrency Bitcoin for three other classic games.
Games portfolio expanded by three classics
The new list of supported games includes Sudoku, Solitaire and the letter puzzle game Missing Letters.
“These games are played by literally billions of people for hundreds of hours over many years. But so far none of them have gotten anything for their time. Why should it continue when we now live in an era where games can be more than just fun?,”
explains Dan Beasley, co-founder of Viker.
Here’s how it works
As part of the partnership between Viker and Zebedee, games such as “Balls King” or “Wheel of Trivia” have already been released, where players can also earn Bitcoin. In order to be rewarded for their playing time, players only have to enter their Zebedee gamertag in the Viker app, where different games with a Bitcoin reward system are available to choose from. With the link, the bitcoin earned at Viker will automatically appear in the Zebedee app.
