The cryptocurrency boom has enabled people from all around the world to achieve financial independence in a variety of ways. And one of the best ways to earn crypto is by playing games.

Play-to-earn (P2E) games are the talk of the crypto scene right now. Every discussion you see on Twitter in the crypto and NFT spaces is centered around them. There are many P2E games now through which you can earn a decent amount of cryptocurrency.

Here are 5 of them:

Wizardia

Wizardia is a turn-based game where players participate in Player vs. Player (PvP), and Player vs. Environment (PvE) matches. Wizardia is a unique P2E crypto game with exciting game mechanics and RPG elements.

Every item in the game is an NFT that can be sold for profit. Wizardia currently has two types of NFTs, Wizard NFTs, and Arena Genesis NFTs, with a third type, Market Genesis NTFS, planned soon.

You can earn crypto by buying a Wizard NFT and participating in matches with it. You can also earn passive royalties by purchasing Arena Genesis NFTs and receiving staking rewards in return.

Players will also receive royalties from every battle that takes place in the “Arena” if they own an Arena Genesis NFT.

Plant VS Undead

Plant VS Undead is a Binance Smart Chain-based P2E crypto game where you have to defend your farm from zombies. You can think of this game as the crypto version of Plant VS Zombies.

It’s a simple game where you make money by trading in-game NFT items and then selling them for profit. Players make “Light Energy (LE)” tokens and convert them into the game’s governance token called PVU, which can further be converted into any cryptocurrency.

You can earn LE tokens by tending to your farm and performing various in-game activities.

Decentraland

Decentraland is a bit more complicated than other P2E games on this list. It’s not as simple as other games because there are just a lot of things that you can do in it.

Players buy virtual lands and then fill them with whatever they want. They build cities, games within the cities, and other fun experiences for other players. While the concept sounds innovative, Decentraland lacks good graphics and game mechanics.

Nevertheless, Decentraland provides a plethora of ways for crypto enthusiasts to make money. The game has two currencies—LAND and MANA. The former is an NFT that represents the land you purchase, and the latter is a cryptocurrency that you use to purchase lands, services, and any other thing in the game.

Bomb Crypto

Bomb Crypto is another Binance Smart Chain-based P2E crypto game. There are three game modes, all of which present different opportunities to make money.

Story mode allows you to battle monsters and bosses while searching for NFT items that can be sold for cryptocurrency.

In Autoplay mode, you have to look for the game’s token $BCOIN by planting bombs in different locations. The token can be exchanged for other cryptocurrencies.

In PvP mode, you battle other Bomb Crypto players and win NFT items in return.

Thetan Arena

Thetan Arena is a P2E Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) game where you team up with three other players to fight against another team.

It’s a free-to-play (F2P) game, which means it doesn’t require an initial investment, but you do have the option to buy a “Premium Hero” which will allow you to earn rewards in crypto.

You can also earn tokens with the free Hero and use them to buy a Premium one.

It has tons of different game modes, and you can also create a custom game with custom maps and a number of players. Participating in matches and winning them will bag you Thetan Coin (THC) and Thetan Gem (THG), the latter of which can be converted into another crypto.

Conclusion

P2E games are a great way to earn crypto. Most of them require an initial investment, but once you’ve bought your way into the game, there’s not a lot you have to do.

You can earn crypto by performing certain in-game activities, staking NFTs, and creating virtual worlds like in Decentraland, where other players can interact with each other.
