Objectives
Drive adoption of MagicBlock’s execution engine among gaming and real-time application teams.
Empower builders to create high-performance games and applications leveraging Ephemeral Rollups and custom execution layers.
Position MagicBlock as the backbone for next-generation on-chain games requiring speed, low fees, and privacy—especially for PSG1-native experiences.
Generate high-quality open-source MVPs capable of evolving into long-term ecosystem products.
Participants will build games, applications, or interactive systems powered by MagicBlock’s execution layer and runtime.
The goal: demonstrate how real-time, scalable, and low-fee gaming logic can run on Solana using MagicBlock while benefiting from Solana’s security and settlement layer.
Suggested Challenge Areas
Real-Time Multiplayer Games
Build fast-paced multiplayer action, strategy, racing, or survival games where MagicBlock’s execution engine powers real-time state updates.
Fully On-Chain Games Powered by Ephemeral Rollups
Create games where core logic—movement, combat, progression, crafting, or economies—executes fully on-chain using Ephemeral Rollups.
Randomized & Verifiable Game Mechanics
Develop randomized systems for loot drops, card draws, world generation, matchmaking, or probabilistic dApp logic with verifiable execution guarantees.
Privacy-Enhanced Strategy & Card Games
Build games with hidden information—secret moves, private hands, or fog-of-war mechanics—leveraging MagicBlock’s privacy features for trust-minimized gameplay.
