Even the greatest games are ultimately judged by those who play them, talk about them, and share with others what they find most compelling and interesting and why spending their valuable free time playing them is advantageous.
But in a Web3 gaming world, players do more than talk about what a gaming company has built; they build alongside them, layering on top tools and analytics that level up the game.
Photo Finish™ has a growing group of community members turned third-party tool savants that make the game better and, more importantly, make players better at the game.
You’ll want to know about these folks if you’re new here. Here is a Beginner’s Guide to Photo Finish™ Third-Party Tools.
