I've been hearing Tap2Earn games are dead. Influencers claim hype is over and people have moved on. I couldn’t accept that as my inner child still hoping to get rich by playing games. But my inner explorer urged me to investigate. Either way I decided to do some digging myself and share findings with you along the way.

Quick research revealed a bunch of new applications that have popped up recently. And the pile is big enough to keep you engaged and get lost in miniapps world. Behold, 6 handpicked applications that deserve attention both to have some fun and get rewards… out of dozens.

7 new miniapps you should try

Disclaimer: The list is not ranked, and the apps mentioned are not necessarily the best. This is a humble attempt at research, and I apologize for any mistakes or omissions.

Slap Star

Hold your pants, guys, here comes SlapStar. Ever dreamed of pretty girls to put forward their bumpers to get slapped? Wait no more as those digital models are striving for it. Tap those buns, get some points and exchange for packs where you can get another girls from. Apart from it the game is the same as other Tap2Earns here and there. Devs promise to release chicks as NFTs so apart from coin airdrop the one could get lucky with some cards to collect or trade.

Trump’s Empire

Stats: official channel subscribers – 837k, bot monthly users – 3,281M

For those who has fingers hurt from tapping there is a Trump’s Empire. Buy businesses to earn money from, hire managers and build up to become the US president and Make America Great Again.

Have to confess this game made me to spend a couple of hours as there is always profits to collect and businesses to level up and acquire. Devs propose to exchange obtained points for $TRUMPE at 1 decillion points to 1 coin rate. At least you know the price of your time.

White Basics

Stats: official channel subscribers – 9,5k, bot monthly users – 103k

When classical tapping is not enough there is always an option to gather in guilds and compete together. White Basics application devs tried to add social component to tap games – anyone can create a guild or join existing one and decide groups future destiny. There is an option to play mini games inside the app when warriors are tired.

But whole point of tapping is to exchange collected points for $WB coin or memecoins created by app community or your own memecoins. The implementation is not yet set in stone but they are definitely doing something interesting. Hope one day they will also bring guild wards and competitive flavor into the game.

Richie – Metapolis Mayor

Ever played monopoly? Roll dice, jump tiles, upgrade your streets and play rewarding minigames to get more rolls and rewards. The game is beautifully crafted and plays slick making the whole experience pretty engaging.

Devs plan to release building NFTs that bring passive income and list $RICH token to collect in the game and trade. The aim is to get 1M users and Helika partnership will surely boost guys towards their target.

Cicada

For mistery and noir lovers there is a Cicada application launched. Somehow the app knows what apps you’ve interacted with previously (X Empire, Hamster Kombat, Dogs etc.) and rewards you some points for that. The app also allows you to catch some cicadas to get airdrop of yet-to-be-listed coin. Devs also plan to launch another minigame but that’s a secret for now.

RichBot Revolution

Stats: official channel subscribers – 106k, bot monthly users – 24k
Links: referral - direct

There are robots to kill all humans and there are robots to make you rich. At least in an application. RichBot provides a bit different take on tap2earn mechanics – tap as long as you want with no silly energy to interrupt your experience. But there is an overheating in the way. Silly robot coolers.

There is a lottery and “prize game” on top of that. Plus passive income to keep you returning back to grab those free points

Viktoner

Viktoner is a mystery for me. It looks like a classy tap2earn game but seems like it’s not. There are no cards to level up, no gadgets to buy and passively earn more and more. Just tap until energy is over and come back once it’s restored.

But for those unsatisfied with profits there is gambling flavor to it – small list of simple games to test your luck. You can even call it a small casino with a faucet if you wish.

I couldn’t find official channel for it or any info when it was released and how big is it’s audience. Still worth a check as for me.

Conclusion

I’d like to present a full-fledged market research but hope you are fine with this glimpse of Tap2Earn landscape. In a couple of hours I found at least 30 new miniapps that would take too much time to review. But, I am still in doubt Tap2Earn is dead. People will hunt opportunities until developers will share their profits at some extent.

I’ll keep digging and provide more insights. In the meanwhile let me know what are you specifically interested in.
