Halloween Mini-Campaign with Puffverse and More Game Projects

CARV joined forces with Puffverse, Meta Merge, Faith of Arena, and Crypto Empire to bring an exciting Halloween mini-campaign filled with treats, including GEMs on CARV and a treasure trove of in-game goodies from these game projects. With an overwhelming response, we had over 2500 enthusiastic participants.

But that's not all —— we also hosted a Puffverse game night live stream in the CARV Community. Before the game night, we had an informative AMA session, where we shared all the details about the exciting game night ahead. During the game night, over 200 gamers joined and shared the excitement.

The Halloween mini-campaign wasn't just about fun; it offered an opportunity for us to strengthen our bonds with our community and partners, creating memorable moments and experiences for all our CARVers.

Web2 Gaming Events
