Wombat is a Web 3 gaming platform that facilitates the ongoing paradigm shift focusing mainly on gamers’ needs, simplicity, security and comfort. Wombat aims to reduce the entry barriers encountered by aspiring blockchain gamers.
In achieving this, the Wombat App is put in place with its integrated functionalities optimized for gamers. These in-app functions are Wallet, NFT Gallery, NFT Marketplace, Game Rewards (Womplay), Dapp Explorer, Token Swaps and Fiat on- and off-ramps.
Wombat allows gamers to find new games which offer crypto tokens or NFTs as an incentivization for their gaming efforts. It also allows gamers to store, manage, transfer and interact with these earned digital assets, and share their game progress and their earned NFTs with their gaming community or fellow gamers.
In addition to all these, users can trade, lend, borrow, stack, or swap these tokens and NFTs into fiat currencies on established exchanges or third-party marketplaces with access to Defi ecosystems with their native digital assets.
In addressing the problem of mass-market games, Wombat has partnered with leading publishers and game studios from the traditional (Web 2) gaming space and the blockchain-based (web 3) gaming space. This has led to the integration of 20 publishers with over 40 games into the wombat app as of June 2022.
