In a stunning turn of events, the Sui Network has experienced an unprecedented surge in daily transactions, propelled by a deceptively simple blockchain game. This game, reminiscent of the popular 2048 puzzle game from 2014, goes by the name of Sui 8192.Â
Players are tasked with strategically shifting and combining tiles using arrow keys until they achieve the coveted 8192 tile. Unveiled in October 2022, this game has now become a major driving force behind the remarkable network activity on the Sui blockchain.
Each time a player engages in the game, a new object is minted, much like the creation of an NFT. Intriguingly, every move made during gameplay is recorded as a transaction, necessitating the payment of a gas fee. These transactions have substantially contributed to the surge in daily activity on the Sui Network, as highlighted in a recent blog post by the Sui Foundation on July 10.
Ethos Wallet, the provider of the Sui wallet, crafted this game as an exemplary showcase of the potential evolution of applications on the Sui blockchain. Built entirely on-chain, Sui 8192 is open source and aims to inspire future developers with its innovative approach.
