Although the number of active web3 players has decreased over the past week, the number of alpha and beta tests for web3 games continues to increase! The top NFT collections also saw significant growth this week, with several new faces making their mark on our charts!
Do you need more alpha? How about free weekends to play in Project Red? Or a game to gain experience with BattleFly? Or a public alpha for Faraway Land, a city-building game that will tie into Mini-Royale. The games keep coming, so be sure to keep checking our site for the latest news on the latest alphas!
For those who love NFT mints, we have an upcoming Phantom Galaxies airdrop and a special free mint for NFT holders for Shrapnel. And later this month, Wildcard plans to hold a special showcase for its game, with an NFT mint coming in March.
Markets may be down, but sentiment and excitement for Web3 games, NFTs, and the blockchain space as a whole continues to grow. And in this space, things happen so fast that it’s easy to get left behind.

The numbers of active games seem to echo the overall crypto markets. And we’re seeing it again this week, as we have a general downward trend in active players in the top 10 projects. Planet IX and Benji Bananas had particularly big hits, but otherwise the board still contains all the familiar faces.

Large NFT projects, on the other hand, do not seem to be as affected by the recent stock market crash. And while the Sewer Pass still raked in nearly $10 million in trades this week, the Bored Ape monopoly saw some challenges to its dominance as Checks V4 and Pudgy Penguins made their mark.
Overall, the NFT markets have seen a surge, with the lowest projects in our top ten list still generating over $5 million in trading volume!
