Whether it is Mining Hub mode or Thunderdome Battle mode, players need to think about the formation of troops. Obtaining as much TLM and NFT assets as possible within the inherent time, and equipping minions and weapons to win Battles can all improve the players self-confidence and sense of accomplishment, and enhance user stickiness.

Although GameFi has a bright future, it does not mean that you can blindly invest in several hot projects. Splinterlands has 14 times as many users as Axie Infinity, but far less revenue than Axie. Although Alien Worlds has the highest trading volume of any game on the WAX chain, new user growth has already slowed down. Although The Crypto You ranks fourth on the hot list, there is still a lot of room for improvement in user retention and new user growth.
