What Is The Shiba Inu Game?

The Shiba Inu Game is actually two games, split into both a classic mobile game, and an NFT game that will make use of the Shiboshi NFTs.

Developed by Playside Studios and William Volk, the mobile game is designed to bring in more casual players. It feature in-app purchases. The blockchain version of the game will add further value to the Shiboshi NFTs, and include play-to-earn elements.

According to SHIB project lead Shytoshi Kusama, the Shiba Inu game's narrative will also span through the entire SHIB ecosystem.

The mobile game is the main focus for now as testing goes live. However, we aren’t fully sure as to what the other gameplay differences are between the games just yet, as little information has come out on the blockchain version.
