The anonymous creators of Hamster Kombat, a popular ‘clicker’ game on Telegram, are planning a second airdrop two years after the first one, which is expected later this month. The game, inspired by Notcoin, meme stocks, and social media, has seen a lot of success.
Recently, Telegram games have become more popular, and Hamster Kombat has stood out. The game lets players earn points by using its Telegram mini-app and has reportedly attracted 250 million players in just three months.
Hamster Kombat Founders Highlight Community and Future Airdrops
In an interview, the founders of Hamster Kombat described the game as “more than just a game, it’s a worldwide family.” The anonymous team, which claims to have been active in the blockchain space since 2013, expressed their belief in the long-term power of their community. They drew a parallel to Satoshi Nakamoto’s anonymity, stating that their focus is also on the industry and the community, not on individual recognition. This message was shared with the 52 million members of their official Telegram channel.
Although Hamster Kombat’s first airdrop has not yet occurred, the creators are already promising a second one. The first airdrop is tentatively scheduled for later this month, with plans for a second airdrop and a new season of the game within the next two years.
In response to concerns about the game’s longevity beyond the airdrop, the creators assured that the game will continue and that the token, which will be held by millions of users worldwide, has significant value.
While some projects face challenges when users quickly sell free tokens received from airdrops, Hamster Kombat’s approach contrasts with Notcoin, the first crypto “clicker” game on Telegram. Notcoin remains successful two months after airdropping NOT tokens worth $1 billion.
Hamster Kombat Founders Address Bot Farming and Mini-App Popularity
The founders of Hamster Kombat took inspiration from Notcoin, meme stocks like Gamestop, and social media games from the 2010s to make their own version of the game. However, there have been reports of users using bots to farm coins, and the creators have warned that anyone caught using bots will face penalties.
“We see everyone who is trying to flood bots, and we will be cleaning them up before the listing,” they said. “Notcoin managed to ban around 20% of bot accounts, and we aim to do the same. Using bots and referral cheating will be punished.”
The surge in clicker games is driven by Telegram “mini-apps”—web applications that run within the messaging platform. Telegram CEO Pavel Durov noted that these mini-apps, like Notcoin and Hamster Kombat, grow rapidly because users don’t need to install them on their devices.
