How to play the popular social game TwitFi?

TwitFi: A New GameFi that combines Social and Gaming Based on Twitter

Original article by 0xBun, Deep Tide TechFlow

Despite the demise of X2E, it is still one of the relatively new systems in Web3, attracting a lot of liquidity. X2E is a highly flexible narrative whose form depends on one's imagination. This means that "X" can be dressed up in anything people want, such as Play, Write or even Sleep. The "X" we're going to look at today is tweets, and how they earn rewards for Posting tweets.

What is TwitFi?

TwitFi is a social networking game for Web 3 with GameFi features. Getting started with the game is as simple as connecting your wallet and Twitter account to their website and getting ready is two-thirds of the way.

Finally, you need to prepare the TwitFi NFT, which is a bird-based interactive NFT. Players can Mint a pet egg for money or free during the market or Mint. Of course, different kinds of eggs produce different kinds of birds. For example, if the eggs are free, the birds that hatch are more likely to be Baby type birds. It is important to note that Baby type birds cannot be sold on the secondary market.

准备好了这些，玩家便可以在推特上发布带 #TwitFi 的推文来赚取游戏内的Token了， Token 可在游戏中使用或兑现。

T2E mechanism

It's too boring to just post tweets for rewards, and it's hard to defend against speculators. In order to make TwitFi look more like a game, the project decided to do something with NFT.

如前所述，当你将蛋孵化成鸟的时候，鸟会有四种类型，以及五个等级。类型和等级不同的鸟，每条推文赚取的 Token 也不相同。

并且，NFT 并不能直接赚取 Token ，而是要通过一种名为「饲料」的媒介。当我们的饲料用完时，便再也无法通过发布推文来赚取 Token 。后续则需要等待饲料的重新补充。鸟的等级不同，饲料的恢复速度也不一样，如下图所示。

However, regardless of level, each NFT can have a maximum of 10 feeds, and players can accumulate up to 50 feeds by purchasing feed bins.

显然，等级的高低是赚取 Token 的关键，那么如何提升鸟的等级呢？除了在二级市场购买高等级鸟之外，玩家可以通过消耗赚取的 Token （TWT）来提升级别，并且在提升等级之前，还有一段等待期：

In order to further reduce the selling pressure on TWTS and increase the game's vitality, NFT also introduced a "virus" mechanism. When you tweet, NFT has a reasonable chance of catching a virus. If NFT is infected, you won't get TWT by tweeting. The infection will clear up in seven days. Or, you can buy drugs on the market to cure it immediately.

Infection probability depends on the number of NFT tweets:

It should be noted that although the infection will heal, the NFT will self-destruct after 20 infections.

Pros and cons of the game

TwitFi is a social game with a clear target audience: people who use social software a lot. TwitFi is unique in that it allows players to earn real money by Posting tweets on social media. This allows the player to enjoy the interaction while still gaining financial benefits.

In addition, pets add to the playability of the game. This is because pets, as an element of the game, are a means of adding fun and complexity to the game -- TwitFi uses a series of mechanics derived from pets to keep the game going.

However, the game's strengths can also be its weaknesses. For example, the "feed" recovery rate provided in the game depends on the level of the bird, which may cause the player to feel the need to purchase a high level of NFT. And the game's poor performance in terms of gameplay, where a single tweet doesn't generate much user engagement, especially during a bear market.

In a word, TwitFi is still in the early stage. By means of tweets and NFT, it has opened up the bridge between Web2 and Web3, bringing new blood to Web3. The creativity and ideas of the game deserve recognition. However, the moat is not yet established, the model is easily copied, and it is questionable whether the game will be sustainable after launch.
