Popular Telegram Game Back Online
Hamster Kombat, a tap-to-earn game launched in March and rapidly becoming Telegram's most popular mini-app, has returned online following a three-hour outage over the weekend. The disruption left players unable to access the game, sparking concern among its dedicated community.
Restoration Confirmed
In a recent update, the game's development team announced the successful restoration of Hamster Kombat, reassuring players that they can now resume their activities without any data loss. This announcement came after a period of uncertainty during which users expressed frustration over the outage.
Cause of Outage Speculation
The exact cause of the outage remains unspecified by the developers, prompting speculation within the community. Some attribute it to the game's server struggling to handle the high volume of traffic from its substantial user base, which exceeds 230 million players. Others suggested potential server maintenance or security upgrades as contributing factors.
Game Features and Future Plans
Hamster Kombat allows players to earn rewards and coins within the app, with opportunities for token airdrops planned on The Open Network (TON). Recently, the game added a new "Creator level" requiring players to accumulate over 18 billion coins to qualify for upcoming airdrops.
Community Engagement and Coin Collection
Players engage with the game through various methods to collect coins, including interactions with its dedicated YouTube channel. Viewing content on the channel can yield significant coin rewards, up to 100,000 coins per view, enhancing gameplay and earnings potential.
While the outage impacted gameplay temporarily, the swift resolution and ongoing community engagement underscore the game's resilience and popularity among cryptocurrency enthusiasts. Continued monitoring of server stability and communication transparency will be crucial as Hamster Kombat navigates future updates and expansions.
