Kool Games Reveals GodSlayer to be Powered Exclusively by Kin Cryptocurrency
Kool Games Joins Kin Ecosystem in Aim to Boost Engagement and Revenue
January 17, 2022 (Toronto) - Kool Games, the esteemed mobile game studio that has collaborated with high-powered clients such as Voodoo and Green Panda Games, has announced that their upcoming action RPG title GodSlayer will allow players to earn, buy, and spend Kin to supercharge their gaming experience.
GodSlayer is an action-packed role-playing game where players will hack and slash their way through enemy-filled dungeons on their quest to slay the tyrannical Zeus. Players will collect weapons and upgrades to customize and increase the strength of their character via randomly generated dungeons, resulting in infinite potential gameplay experiences.
Kool Games has chosen Kin to be the exclusive token for GodSlayer thanks to the user-centric Kin Rewards Engine, which will allow Kool Games to earn Kin tokens of their own based on how much players are using them in the game, which they can then use to further reward users and fund development.
“Kin is flipping the traditional monetization model on its head such that users are rewarded for their engagement, and share in the success of the platform,” said Kevin Ricoy, Head of Growth for the Kin Foundation, “This allows developers to focus on creating great experiences and rewarding users, rather than engaging in deceptive practices to extract value.”
Kool Games partnered with the Kin Ecosystem through its popular Kin Catalyst program, which supports promising teams in their plans to build engaging new user experiences with the Kin cryptocurrency.
“GodSlayer is setting out to prove that Web3 mobile games can rival those in the traditional realm, while further enhancing the value to the player,” said José Mourarias, CEO of Kool Games, “Kin gives our players access to an even greater ecosystem of use cases and a living economy to engage with that goes beyond any single game or application.”
Kool Games will also be experimenting with Kin for future games that it may publish including new entries in the GodSlayer franchise, so gamers and Kin users can stay tuned for more exciting developments as this partnership continues to develop.
Gamers and Kin users can expect GodSlayer to be available in App Stores in early 2023. Subscribe to the newsletter at kin.org to stay informed on the latest GodSlayer updates.

Overcoming Obstacles to Building a web3 Economy
Several players in the blockchain industry are working towards building a decentralized, open economy based on cryptocurrency. Kin augments this vision by allowing every participant to benefit from the opportunities it offers without being taken advantage of. This vision, known as web3, aims to solve the problems of the extractive big data economy, where large tech firms exploit personal data from consumers, app developers and content creators, leaving them unable to maximize monetizing their work. However, there are several challenges that need to be overcome in order to realize the full potential of web3.
