Although the monthly active users (MAU) of the Web3 game Hamster Kombat have dropped significantly, the project is laying out plans to retain its first-season players while drawing in new users.

Once a sensation with 300 million users in August, this Telegram-based clicker game now maintains only around 30 million monthly players. However, representatives of Hamster Kombat claim this trend was expected.

“For a multi-season project like ours, fluctuations in player numbers are normal. We are currently in a transitional phase, preparing for Season 2. That said, the 30 million MAU figure has remained stable even during this handover period,” a spokesperson explained.

The development team also revealed plans to reconnect with Season 1 players while seeking to engage new potential audiences.

Maintaining a Loyal Player Base

According to a report on November 14, the Hamster Kombat token (HMSTR) recorded $1.3 billion in spot trading volume and $4 billion in perpetual trading volume. Notably, the number of token holders has surpassed 11 million.

“Reaching 11 million token holders puts us on par with leading blockchains. Our next goal is to grow this number and expand into new markets,” the spokesperson added.

The team is confident they have established a “core player base” of about 30 million users who actively participate even after the initial airdrop.

“This number exceeds the total user base of many other projects even before they’ve launched their airdrops,” the spokesperson noted.

Telegram Game Boom with Paws and Blum

While Hamster Kombat works to regain momentum, several other mini-apps on Telegram are capturing significant attention.

For instance, Paws has emerged as one of the fastest-growing apps on the platform, boasting 40.7 million monthly users.

Similarly, Blum, a hybrid exchange combining CEX and DEX features, is rising as a leading mini-app. It includes a clicker game where players can earn points to exchange for airdropped tokens.

Also noteworthy is Major, which tops the Telegram Mini App rankings with 34.9 million MAU. This app allows users to earn cryptocurrency by completing various tasks.
