Whereas Hamster Kombat has been round since March, the sport just lately picked up critical steam after the Notcoin airdrop concluded—maybe as a consequence of tap-addicted avid gamers migrating to a brand new recreation with an upcoming token and airdrop within the works.
Hamster Kombat’s core idea is just like Notcoin, with some barely richer recreation mechanics layered on high of it. Briefly: It’s a tap-to-earn recreation blended with a crypto alternate simulator.

Notcoin ran for 3 months earlier than pausing gameplay, after which launched its token greater than a month later. Hamster Kombat could not observe the very same routine, after all—however given how a lot hype Notcoin harnessed and was market worth, we wouldn’t be stunned to see Hamster Kombat mimic such strategies as effectively.
