Nefta partners with VIKER to bring blockchain technology to casual mobile games
Nefta will partner with VIKER to help pursue its goal of building the world’s largest blockchain gaming community
Nefta, the Web3 technology platform, has announced a new partnership with VIKER, a blockchain gaming studio with a growing portfolio of Play-And-Earn mobile games. Nefta will provide its end-to-end Web3 technology to VIKER in order to facilitate deeper blockchain integration in its current and upcoming games.
With a commitment to making Web3 gaming more accessible, VIKER boasts a growing portfolio of casual mobile games which are fully built into the blockchain, meaning that players can earn crypto currency while playing their favourite games.
Nefta will also play an integral part in the launch of VIKER’s very own Genesis NFTs, by minting the tokens and launching its marketplace. Each NFT will act as an earning multiplier, giving the user instant utility and an even better gaming experience. The first wave of games where players will be able to access the NFTs include SOLITAIRE, BALLS KING, and WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE.
Geeshan Willink, CEO and Co-Founder of Nefta, said: “The team at VIKER is poised to make huge strides in the Web3 gaming space. They have already made some beautifully crafted games which are ripe for Web3 integration. We’re excited by this partnership because we’re scaling their gaming audience, introducing the ability to onboard Web3 gaming guilds and partner ecosystems. In addition, with the introduction of the Nefta AdSDK, we will enable VIKER to increase the LTV of web3 users.”
Built on Polygon, an Ethereum-based platform, VIKER and Nefta will take advantage of the proof-of-stake chain to increase transaction speed and reduce fees, as well as lowering the environmental burden imposed by proof-of-work blockchains. By partnering with Nefta, VIKER is poised to lead further accessibility in blockchain gaming, with no joining fees or wallet requirements.
Ben Cusack, Founder of VIKER, said: “We started VIKER with the ambitious goal of bringing Play-and-Earn to one billion players, and to reward them for spending time in-game. We wanted to streamline game development, while maintaining a high-quality output. With Nefta’s end-to-end blockchain solution, we will continue to bring the best Play-and-Earn games to players, while offering high calibre, worthwhile rewards.
“We’ve grown VIKER to the point of achieving over 80 million downloads across all our games, in over 100 countries. With this new partnership, we can bring more fun and rewarding game experiences to an even bigger audience, democratising access to crypto in the process.”

THE BATTLE OF POLYTOPIA RELEASES NEW AQUARION SPECIAL SKIN IN LATEST UPDATE
Midjiwan, the award-winning independent studio behind The Battle of Polytopia has today released a new Aquarion Special Skin, additional language options and balance updates to the recently reworked Aquarion tribe. Players will dive deep into the Ritiki Marshlands encountering a lost Aquarion outpost with the new skin known as “The Forgotten”.
Long ago, when the Aquarion Empire vanished beneath the waves. One remote outpost in the swampy atolls lost all contact, leading its inhabitants to believe they were the last of their kind. This forgotten tribe evolved in isolation, adapting to the marshy landscapes with squid-like appendages and unique abilities to command the swamp and its creatures.
Using the unique abilities of “The Forgotten”, players can build on water, summon giant squids, create speed enhancing bubbles, ride crocodiles, tame toads, and traverse their marshy terrains with ease.
In addition, the latest update to the game now offers expanded language options: Hindi, Indonesian, Malay, Polish, Thai, Turkish & Vietnamese.
Christian Lövstedt, CEO of The Battle of Polytopia, commented: “I feel that this skin is one of the best we’ve created and has quickly become my personal favourite. Additionally, we have added Bubble Tech to the Aquarion Waterways, making that tribe even greater. With expanded language options and new gameplay mechanics, we’re inviting players to dive into the rich lore and strategy that make the Battle of Polytopia truly special.”
To celebrate the launch of the new update, Midjiwan hosted an exclusive livestream event, offering fans a unique look behind the scenes, live gameplay, and discussions with the development team – the livestream is available to watch now: The Forgotten livestrea m by Midjiwan.
