Players’ investments in virtual items in traditional games cannot be truly owned or transferred, which leads to player frustration. According to the survey, U.S. players spend about $6,425 on virtual items, and 51% of them are dissatisfied with not being able to give or resell these items. Blockchain games solve this problem by storing data on a decentralized ledger, ensuring that players have true ownership of their in-game assets.

Advantages of blockchain games include:

- Interoperability: In-game items can be transferred and used across different games and platforms.

- Monetization: Players can trade assets and receive real-world value.

- Enhanced security: The encryption and decentralized structure of blockchain reduces the risk of hacking and fraud.

- Decentralized governance: Players can participate in game updates and rule-making through decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs).

However, despite these advantages, blockchain games are still not widely accepted. The survey showed that 52% of players have never heard of blockchain games, and 32% know about them but have not tried them. This is partly because some early blockchain games overemphasized revenue and ignored gameplay. Additionally, the poor user experience of blockchain games compared to Web2 games is also a hurdle.

Starknet solves these problems with its native account abstraction technology, making the user experience of blockchain games closer to traditional games. It allows players to sign a wallet at the beginning and then play without interruption for a period of time. In addition, Starknet reduces transaction fees, making blockchain games more economically viable.

Unstoppable Games is bridging the gap between Web2 and blockchain games with its newly launched blockchain game "Influence", which chose Starknet as its network platform to ensure a smooth, scalable gaming experience.
