Another Blockchain Game Studio Shuts Down As Crypto Trend Sputters Out

The company, founded by FarmVille co-creator Amitt Mahajan, failed to build a sustainable business with its flagship game, Pirate Nation, which integrated NFTs and crypto tokens. This shutdown follows similar failures in the space, including Axie Infinity's economic collapse and Square Enix and Ubisoft's retreats from blockchain-based games.
