Recently, the Ton chain gaming ecosystem has been booming. NotCoin has successfully listed on Binance and has seen a good increase in value. Hamster Kombat, a game on Twitter, has also surpassed 9 million followers, indicating that Telegram games like Tap to earn are very popular. Recently, Pixelverse, a project that raised $5.5 million in funding, released a Tap-to-Earn battle game called PixelTap on the Ton chain. They also launched a Play-to-Airdrop event, with a monthly active user base of 7 million overseas, although there is not much attention from Chinese users. The official team has stated that the PIXFI token will be listed on exchanges at the end of June, making it likely to become the next dark horse in the Ton ecosystem.

Gameplay:
To enter the game page, click on the Launch button on the official Twitter and you will be directed to the Telegram mini-game PixelTap.
On the main page, the top left corner displays the current amount of coins held, and on the right side is the number of tokens that can be collected daily. You can increase the daily collection amount by upgrading the robot.
At the bottom is a yellow claim button. Clicking on it will collect coins. Coins can be collected every 8 hours, up to three times a day.
On the invitation page, you can invite friends to earn extra points. This is currently the highest rewarding method. If your invited friend is a Telegram premium member, you will receive 10,000 coins and a 3x welcome bonus. If they are not, you will receive 2,000 coins and a 2x welcome bonus. Additionally, you can permanently receive 5% of the invited person’s bonus and an additional 3% bonus from the earnings of your second-level referrals within three days.
On the top page, you can see the weekly invitation leaderboard. The game collects a portion of inactive users’ coins daily and adds them to the reward pool to incentivize referrers. Your position on the weekly invitation leaderboard depends on the number of referrals you have made in a week. The higher the ranking, the more coins you will receive from the pool. For example, the first-place referrer this week has invited nearly 20,000 users and will receive the majority of the coin rewards.
On the battle page, you can see your robot pet. The pet has three attributes: battery, lightning, and power. Battery represents the pet’s energy level, lightning represents the charging speed, and power represents the strength of the attack. You can also choose to purchase pets. After purchasing one pet, you need to wait for a certain period before purchasing the next one. Buying more pets requires more coins. For example, when purchasing the fifth pet, you need 10 million coins.
You can choose to upgrade your pet to improve its stats. The higher the pet’s level, the stronger it becomes, and the more coins you earn per battle. Additionally, adding a pet will provide an additional passive income of 300,000 coins, and each level upgrade will increase the passive income by 30,000 coins. Different pets have different level caps, and each upgrade randomly increases the stats by 5 points. The higher the level, the more coins required for an upgrade. It is recommended to choose a main pet for PVP battles and use others as secondary pets to increase passive income. It is suggested to upgrade the passive pets to around level 5 for optimal passive income.
Clicking the battle button will take you to the PVP section, where you will be matched with a random opponent. Once in the game, quickly click on the circle to deduct the opponent’s health. The faster you click, the faster the opponent’s health will decrease. When the opponent’s pet runs out of health, you win. It is recommended to use an auto-clicker or a massager gun to achieve faster clicking speed. Jianshu has tested and found that operating on a computer is more convenient and faster than on a phone.
During the game, there will be two rounds of guessing each other’s moves. In the first round, I choose the area to focus my attack (choose one of the four areas), and the opponent chooses the area to focus their defense. For example, if I choose the top left corner as the area to focus my attack and the opponent chooses the bottom right corner as the area to focus their defense, it means that my attack was successful, and the opponent’s pet will lose a significant amount of health. If I choose the area that the opponent is focusing their defense on, no health will be deducted. After the entire process, the roles of attacker and defender switch, and the operation is the same as before. After winning the battle, you will receive the corresponding coin rewards, and similarly, if you lose, coins will be deducted.
On the rewards page, there are currently three ways to earn additional coin rewards. The first is the Daily Combo, which can be understood as a daily quiz. The specific answers can be obtained by joining Pixelverse’s Telegram Chinese community. Jianshu has also included the community link in the introduction for your convenience. After entering the Daily Combo page, we place the pets in the corresponding positions according to the numbers mentioned in the Chinese community. For example, if today’s answer is 1-2-13-14, when we enter the Daily Combo page, each pet corresponds to a number in order. We just need to drag the correct number pet into the corresponding position to claim the reward. This reward is quite substantial, so it is recommended to do it daily.
Another daily task is the daily check-in reward. Click the claim button to complete the check-in. The more consecutive days you check in, the more rewards you will receive. So, don’t forget to check in every day.
In addition, there is a daily task center where you can see many tasks. Completing tasks can also earn a large amount of coin rewards. Some tasks are challenge-based, such as inviting friends, while others are simple social tasks, such as retweeting and liking tweets. By completing these daily tasks, you can maximize your rewards!
Currently, Pixelverse has launched a lottery event worth 50,000 U in collaboration with OKX Wallet. After completing specified tasks, 1,000 winners will share the rewards. The tasks mainly involve social tasks such as retweeting, and the difficulty is not high. The event will end on July 1st, and participants will also receive additional coin rewards. Interested friends can take a look.
