Open Loot enables developers to launch compliant, scalable, and user-friendly games by combining the advantages of web3 with the simplicity of web2. Explore how it works.
The early promises of web3 in gaming focused on ownership, decentralization, and open digital economies. In practice, however, players often encountered technical barriers that undermined these goals. Wallet errors, complex onboarding processes, and high drop-off rates made crypto gaming inaccessible for most users. Rather than feeling like engaging entertainment, many early web3 games resembled tutorials for browser extensions.
Open Loot aims to resolve these issues. Designed with both developers and players in mind, the platform merges the technical capabilities of web3 with the usability standards of web2. It supports the launch and operation of games that prioritize player experience while still offering the economic advantages of blockchain technology. Open Loot has already been adopted by several live games across various genres, each demonstrating the platform’s practical impact and scalability.
Power of Web3, Simplicity of Web2
One of the primary challenges facing web3 game developers has been the fragmented nature of infrastructure. Open Loot addresses this by offering a fully integrated solution that streamlines development and player onboarding. Developers can access a unified stack that includes embedded white-label wallets, fiat onramps with integrated compliance checks, and software development kits that simplify the publishing process. These features allow studios to bring games to market faster while maintaining regulatory alignment and global reach.
Additionally, Open Loot supports cross-game identity and item systems, enabling players to maintain a consistent presence across multiple titles. The platform also includes a marketplace layer capable of handling meaningful transaction volume, providing a stable foundation for in-game economies. This integrated approach reduces the need for external tools and ensures that both developers and players benefit from a smoother experience.
Power of Web3, Simplicity of Web2
The capabilities of Open Loot are not theoretical. A growing number of live games are already built on the platform, offering real-world validation of its functionality. These games span multiple genres, but all share a commitment to reducing friction and enhancing gameplay.
Worldshards, a multiplayer online game focused on crafting and exploration, uses Open Loot to facilitate NFT minting and pre-token events. Players can engage with blockchain elements without leaving the core game environment. Moonfrost, a life simulation game that blends farming, relationships, and player-driven economies, relies on Open Loot for wallet integration and fiat access, allowing users to play without navigating external crypto tools.
Desolation, a survival game centered on player decisions and item scarcity, uses the platform to support its minting and trading systems. Shatterpoint, a mobile roguelite action RPG, held its debut item sale through Open Loot, enabling wallet-free and gas-free participation. Boss Fighters, a competitive title designed for VR and PC, uses the platform to manage player accounts and digital ownership behind the scenes.
Kokodi, a cooperative story-based exploration game, benefits from persistent identity and interoperable items provided by Open Loot. Big Time, a widely active web3 game featuring dungeon crawling and loot mechanics, also operates on Open Loot’s backend, ensuring consistent performance for high-volume transactions.
Power of Web3, Simplicity of Web2
The games running on Open Loot highlight a shift within the web3 gaming space. Rather than prioritizing token mechanics or speculative features, these titles are built around gameplay and user experience. Open Loot enables this by offering the infrastructure required to support compliance, performance, and scale - without forcing developers to compromise on creativity or players to manage complex onboarding procedures.
With its integrated approach and live implementations, Open Loot represents a practical path forward for crypto gaming. It provides developers with the tools they need to create successful game-first experiences, while offering players the usability they expect from modern digital platforms.
