Introducing The Lineup

Each week of Mantle Games Fest will spotlight new titles, with quests going live on HyperPlay’s in-app Quest platform. Leaderboards for each game reset at the start of their spotlight week, so players can jump in and compete on a level playing field.

Week 1: April 24, 2025 - April 30, 2025

  • Party Icons: A vibrant multi-game metaverse for mobile and PC, combining party-style gameplay with strategic depth and real on-chain rewards.
  • Otherworlds: Explore an AI-generated realm full of unexpected events, unpredictable encounters, and loot-driven exploration.

Week 2: May 1, 2025 - May 7, 2025

  • Uldor: A dark fantasy MMORPG where players battle relentless waves of undead in the Dread Arena. Souls-like combat and survival mechanics await.
  • BuChibi: A cozy, free-to-play idle game set in the Bushi universe. Designed for casual players, BuChibi offers lore-rich adventures and chill progression.

Week 3: May 8, 2025 - May 14, 2025

  • Spot Zero Crush: Enter a lighter side of the Yokai realm with Spot Zero Crush, a vibrant puzzle mini-game set in the same universe as the main ARPG. Match your way through colorful stages, earn XP, and collect power-ups inspired by your favorite companions.

Week 4: May 15, 2025 - May 21, 2025

  • L3E7: The world’s first 3D location-based service game. Set in a cyberpunk version of Earth, L3E7 uses real-world geolocation and high-end rendering to power its gameplay.

Building With Games, Not Just for Them

Our approach to web3 gaming goes beyond funding and curation. We actively co-create alongside builders to help great games scale — from early design to global distribution.

Co-Creation Over Curation

Unlike ecosystems led solely by investment perspectives, Mantle Network's gaming team brings deep experience from game publishing and live operations. Our team members have worked on globally recognized titles like League of Legends, TapTap, Crossy Road, Ragnarok, and Teamfight Tactics.

We support web3 games not just with capital, but with hands-on support across:

  • Tokenomics and economic design.
  • Gameplay loop refinement.
  • User acquisition and retention.
  • Growth mechanics and incentives.
  • Team structure and go-to-market (GTM) planning.
  • Plus traditional ecosystem support including marketing, grants, and CEX listings.

Collaboration Over Competition

Although web3 gaming is still in its native stages, we believe success comes from collaboration, not rivalry. Bringing traditional gamers on-chain is a shared challenge, one that requires coordinated effort across chains, exchanges, creators, and users.

Many of the games featured in Mantle Games Fest — and others across our gaming ecosystem — began their journey on Mantle Network. Since then, we’ve helped them expand across chains to ensure they have access to the best resources and support available.

Here’s where some of our ecosystem games are building today:

  • L3E7 and Spot Zero are live on Mantle Network and Arbitrum.
  • Party Icons is building on Mantle Network and Ronin.
  • Catizen, Aria, and Bombie are live on both Mantle Network and TON.
