About this App
Anyone can tap a screen for virtual coins. Shuriken (also known as Vottun Dojo) adds a theme: you play a ninja developer who learns Web3 in a dojo and builds a project of their own. 🥷
The game's description is already at its second season. The mission: collect shurikens, grow your earnings and upgrade your dApp. Teams are promised bonuses, including for invitations.
What you do in the game
The base is familiar from other tap games: you press the screen and collect in-game currency, the shurikens. What you save can be put into activities that bring passive income per hour.
- Taps. Collect shurikens by pressing the screen.
- Activities. You buy them with in-game currency, and they produce passive income over time.
- Gems. In the new season gems boost your powers and help complete collections.
- Collections. You gather sets of items to improve your standing in the game.
- Referrals. Invited friends increase the shared earnings.
Where Web3 learning comes in
The game comes from a company that builds a platform for blockchain app developers. The in-game activities are meant to mirror real tasks on that platform, so players meet terms and processes as they play.
It is a light introduction rather than a course. You will not learn development by tapping, but you will see what a dApp is made of. 🧠
What a dApp is, anyway
A dApp is an application where part of the logic runs on a blockchain rather than on a single company's server. Such apps are more transparent in their calculations, but harder to build and demand care about security.
In the game, the dApp is a metaphor: you seem to build a project by adding features and improving it. Grasping that idea helps if you decide to dig deeper later. For a beginner it is a good first step into the Web3 vocabulary. 📚
The catch
Tap games run on the expectation of a reward: seasons, collections and hope for a future token handout. But a handout may not happen, may be smaller than hoped, or the terms may change. There are no guarantees, and real money does not belong here.
Time is a resource as well. Daily check-ins, combos and timers are built to bring you back again and again. Decide how many minutes a day you are ready to give without a promised result. ⏱️
Playing sensibly
- Set a time limit. For example, ten minutes in the morning and in the evening.
- Do not pay real money for boosters and bonuses in hope of a hypothetical payout.
- Never enter your wallet recovery phrase. A game needs at most a public address, if anything.
- Check links. Popular games attract many fakes and phishing channels.
Invitations without overdoing it
The referral system makes the game more rewarding for those who bring people in. But spamming other people's chats hurts you: accounts get blocked and friends get annoyed.
Invite only people who are genuinely curious about the topic, and tell them honestly that no result is guaranteed. 🤝
