Octo Gaming

What It Does

Octo Gaming is a mobile gaming platform that gathers casual mini games inside a single app. Players compete in matches to earn in app points and rewards. With 18 games live on iOS and Android, it targets everyday mobile gamers who prefer short competitive sessions with the option to monetize their time.

The app uses a dual reward system. Players earn Golds, an in app currency that can be exchanged for physical and digital prizes from brand partners, and they can also earn OCTOKN (OTK), the Solana based utility token for the Octo ecosystem. The platform integrates meme coin and NFT communities into themed games, turning partner intellectual property into playable experiences.

A built in Octo wallet connects the app to the Solana network so that players can receive OTK and interact with NFTs without leaving the mobile environment.

Notable Games

• Hosico Yum:
  Rhythm style game themed around the Hosico meme coin where players collect items and compete on a leaderboard for HOSICO token rewards.
• BONKmaze:
  Maze based mini game that uses the BONK brand, where players try to outscore rivals in weekly competitions with token prizes.
• PSG 12 Stars:
  Football themed challenge created with Paris Saint Germain that offers club branded rewards such as jerseys and other merchandise.

How Gamers Can Earn

Players register in the Octo app, choose a game, and play one versus one matches or leaderboard events. In regular matches they wager Golds and earn more Golds by winning. Golds can be redeemed for real world items and digital rewards provided by Octo and its commercial partners.

Performance in specific campaigns and leaderboards also grants OTK token rewards. In some events, scores in partner games such as Hosico Yum or BONK themed titles grant payouts in the partner token in addition to Golds. OTK can then be withdrawn through the Octo wallet and traded on exchanges such as KuCoin and MEXC or used inside the app for powers, avatars, and other premium features.
