👋

Yes! Club Bitcoin: Solitaire♣️ is the highest ranking so far. There are a few reasons why I think it has been so successful so far:

1. It's a familiar and fun game. People already know how to play, it's a classic, so there isn't much of a learning curve when it comes to getting started.
2. The past quarter the team has been picking apart our past four games and learning what worked and what didn't. This game has been optimized in every areas - the UX, ad placement, prize draws, etc. This is not only a great bitcoin game, it is a great game by itself.
3. The design is visually appealing and very slick. The UX is crisp af and the responsiveness and the animations feel amazing and natural.

We appreciate the skepticism! So thank you for your questions, and do not apologize at all! Hopefully this will answer some of your questions:

• Right now we generate revenue through AdRev, in app purchases, and sponsorships (we have a couple other projects in the works, but those will be released in the future). We share a part of this revenue with our users via the prize pools.
• We are not collecting and selling user data. We require authenticated login to prevent bots and cheat. As you can imagine, giving away anything free brings about an incredible amount of them. We are working on new ways for users to play the games anonymously while still being able to win bitcoin.
• Currently we have daily raffles / prize draws as the reward mechanic. You pick up or win tickets in the games. Those tickets are then automatically entered in a daily prize draw. In the past we have enabled the sats to we picked up and won directly in the games. However, an overwhelming majority of our users prefer the randomness introduced by the prize draw. We are always open to future experimentation with prize mechanics.
• We reward around 15k winners per day. If the player opted in to the push notification they will get an alert when they win. Otherwise the player can check in the game to see if they have one.

Hope this helps! Happy to answer anything else :)

10 sats for your poem, good sir hat tip

Hey Rafał!
Thanks for joining in!

In your opinion, what was the most interesting challenge you got to tackle when building the game?

Hey! It's actually our 5th game on the App Store :)

Our first was a hyper causal called Bitcoin Bounce where you jump along a blockchain and try and get a high score based on how long you survive. We decided to release this card game to appeal to a wider audience!

Right now one key differentiator is we run our own node and there for send payments peer to peer without a middle man.

Hi DarthCoin, this is Tim, Game Tech Lead here at THNDR.

Thank you so much for sharing our new game with your family and friends! It's one of our missions here at THNDR to bring bitcoin to the world. We actively try and find new ways to onboard as many nocoiners as we can, and make it as easy as possible to transition them to bitcoiners. It's such an exciting time!

Please, if you have any followup questions let us know here, or you can often find us in our Discord.

Thank you so much!!! You have no idea how much we appreciate it :)

For the moment, we get the revenue from ads and then we convert the fiat into sats for prizes. We are already working in new ways of monetization to improve the THNDR experience, I also hate ads. It's a process, we'll change the game.
