Are we thinking too big?

➡️ The case study of Wordle is important when thinking about Nostr and virality:

âś…single developer (Josh Wardle) and minimalist design

âś…simple game with a focus on a daily socially sharable challenge

âś…exponential word of mouth growth (especially thru Twitter)

âś…acquired by NYT for ~$1M and brings in hundreds of thousands of users

When does a simple Nostr game go viral? Which simple games could already be on here to share and compete on Nostr leaderboards?

Curious about your thoughts, anon.

Let’s start by copying? I’m down for wordle 21 day tournament 1000 sats buy in. I’ll contribute 10,000 sats for a functioning wordle w some type of data history relayed/stored. I know it’s not enough…

nostr:npub1nxy4qpqnld6kmpphjykvx2lqwvxmuxluddwjamm4nc29ds3elyzsm5avr7 host any chance?

Put me in coach!

Should be able to help

It’s a good point. nostr does seem like the perfect platform for social gaming.

Fuck yeah it is
