Spekter Games

Problem Solved

Spekter is building Telegram-native games with instant access, no installs, and skill-based mechanics. By using Telegram Mini Apps, they reduce onboarding friction and blend familiar Web2 gameplay with passive Web3 incentives. Their approach emphasizes fun-first design, with crypto rewards earned unobtrusively through gameplay and referrals. The Sparks points system hints at future token utility without pushing players into crypto upfront. This model allows Spekter to appeal to both gamers and airdrop hunters, standing out with a lightweight ecosystem that feels native to chat platforms while still tying into broader Web3 infrastructure. 

Tokenomics

No token exists yet, but Sparks are the placeholder rewards earned via gameplay and referrals. They’ll likely convert into the future ecosystem token. The system emphasizes community distribution based on time and performance, not speculation. No complex burns or dual-token gimmicks. The token is expected to offer perks, cosmetic upgrades, and status - not pay-to-win mechanics. Early players can position themselves before token details are public. 

Perspectives

Spekter plans to scale beyond Telegram into other "super apps" and traditional mobile app stores. The team will keep expanding the games with items, gear, stage caps, and reward systems. A second game is already in development. Long-term success depends on delivering fresh content and balancing fun within the game (and upcoming titles) with new features and cross-app presence while fending off competitors – all in pursuit of becoming a pioneer of Web3 gaming that normal gamers actually enjoy. 

Founders and Team

CEO Taehoon “TK” Kim is a veteran game founder with 20+ years of experience. His previous studio, nWay, produced major hits with over 100M downloads and was acquired by Animoca. TK led Web3 gaming at Animoca and brings deep expertise in both mobile and blockchain games. The wider team includes seasoned engineers, designers, and marketers with Web2 and Web3 backgrounds—proven builders with scale experience. 

Funding

Spekter raised $5M in a pre-seed round backed by a16z Speedrun, LVP, BRV, and others. This gives them strong financial support and validates the concept. The capital is allocated for expanding the Telegram game, launching a second title, and eventually going cross-platform. While tokenomics aren’t public, this level of VC involvement suggests part of the future token supply is reserved for investors. 

Community

The community is strong and growing fast via Telegram and X. Early playtests attracted high engagement, with players creating guides and sharing builds. The team uses dispatch quests and Spark Link referrals to maintain momentum. Community sentiment is positive, with active bug feedback loops. The challenge will be retaining users once the novelty fades—but so far, engagement looks healthy and real. 

Competitors

Spekter operates in a relatively open niche - Telegram-native games - but it still competes indirectly with both Web3 and mobile gaming. Most Telegram games are shallow; Spekter offers real mechanics and skill depth. Outside Telegram, it faces against numerous Web3 and even more Web2 hits like Vampire Survivors. The challenge isn’t launching - it’s maintaining quality and engagement as copycats and better-funded studios move in. Its edge lies in frictionless access, viral mechanics, and consistent gameplay. But to stand out long term, it must scale beyond Telegram, keep content fresh, and retain players once the novelty and airdrop buzz wear off. 

Other Details

Spekter Games recently launched a “Sparks Points” reward program coinciding with their beta release of Spekter Agency on June 26, 2025. Users earn points - called Sparks and XP - by engaging in social media tasks, game play, daily spins, and more. These points aren’t just vanity - they’ll be used to determine eligibility and allocation for a future token airdrop and possibly collectible digital rewards.
