The cryptocurrency market is always evolving with new tools, projects, platforms, and coins. Recently, there’s been a surge in games and meme projects. Especially notable is the rise of tap-to-earn games in Telegram, particularly after Telegram added a wallet and the TON token. These games have been spreading rapidly. What are these games all about? What’s the catch?
What Are Tap-to-Earn Games in Telegram?
Most Telegram games are so-called “tap games,” where you simply tap on the screen. Tap-to-earn games are a new category of play-to-earn games. Developers of these games promise to distribute airdrop tokens to their players. While not all games announce the timing and conditions of these airdrops, the number of players continues to grow.
Let me tell you about a couple of such games.
Hamster Combat
Among all the Telegram games, the most popular one might be Hamster Combat. This was one of the first tap games on Telegram, and today it has over 52 million players in its community. Key Features:
- Players can spend virtual money on upgrades, item purchases, and speeding up collection processes.
- Daily bonuses are given for logging in.
- In addition to the main tapping function, the game includes mini-games, daily combos, and codes that also reward you with coins.
X Empire
Another popular game on Telegram is X Empire. It attracts users by featuring a character resembling Elon Musk.
The main gameplay functions of X Empire are similar to those of Hamster Combat. You click to earn coins, which can then be used to upgrade your character and increase coin earnings from the same actions.

Pros of the tap-to-earn games
- One of the main advantages is that you don’t need to invest money to start playing.

Cons of the tap-to-earn games
- These games promise airdrop tokens, but there are no guarantees. It’s unclear when and how these airdrops will be distributed. For example, X Empire is expected to do an airdrop in September or October of this year. There’s little time left, so you might want to keep tapping for now.
- The main task of these games is to tap. So, you can get bored of the game.
