We first saw the success of Steemmonsters. That was followed up by Drugwars. Both games are highly successful on the Steem blockchain both ranking in the Top 5 on State of the DApps.
Blockchain is really a nice match for gaming. One of the biggest facets of these warring/battle games is that people spend money to acquire different tools to improve their abilities. Naturally, this can create a built in market for these items. Since things are priced in cryptocurrency, the logical progression is to put them on an exchange where they can be bought and sold.

Steem has a lot to offer and it is good to see programmers taking advantage of it. I know not every game will be a big success. However, I prefer to view it as a numbers game: the more gaming applications that are on here, the greater the likelihood of finding that one that is a mega-hit. In the meantime, we can see each game bringing in hundreds of new users apiece to the platform. This will help to grow the ecosystem and spread the word about Steem.
