Singapore:  SimDunk, the highly anticipated cyberpunk street basketball game incubated and published by Web3 gaming powerhouse GGI, has just concluded its 2-week Pioneer Test—and the results are nothing short of impressive. From September 19th to 30th, almost 5,000 players had the exclusive opportunity to enter the game’s futuristic basketball metaverse, and they were met with a thrilling blend of intense competition, strategic gameplay, and a visually stunning cyberpunk universe.

A Slam Dunk Success with Players

SimDunk’s Pioneer Test proved the game’s wide appeal to both gamers and sports fans alike. The test showcased the game’s fast-paced combat mechanics, allowing players to dive into intense, street-style basketball matches set against the backdrop of a vibrant cyberpunk world. Beyond the court action, SimDunk’s sophisticated cultivation system and rich suite of NFTs added strategic depth, providing players with both a competitive edge and valuable rewards for their skills and efforts.

Early player feedback was overwhelmingly positive, and the numbers back it up. The game achieved an impressive Day-1 retention rate of 75.27%, with 65.97% of players returning on Day 3, and 52.99% staying engaged by Day 7. On average, players spent nearly three hours daily immersed in SimDunk’s universe, completing a total of 77,601 games.

Pioneering the NFT Game

One of the major highlights of the test was the launch of SimDunk’s Super-Baller NFT collection. These unique NFTs serve as the key to unlocking SimDunk’s play-to-earn ecosystem, granting players access to exclusive in-game features and advantages.

These NFTs aren’t just digital collectibles; they’re essential companions in a player’s journey toward dominating the SimDunk court.
