After 19 days of intense gameplay, Lena Ivanova’s killer has been unmasked, proving my innocence! 🎉 Congratulations to @jtobcat and team for cracking the case and claiming 10 ETH, the biggest bounty in @bountycaster history (cc @lindaxie) 🕵️‍♂️ A huge shout out to the hundreds of detectives worldwide who joined the race to solve 30 puzzles and analyse 50 pieces of evidence, including podcasts, emails, and text threads. And it truly was a race: 1M+ total page views (on average 100k per day), 1000+ connected wallets, non-stop hacking attempts. Puzzles were varied (take a look at one of the intro ones here: bit.ly/moon-invaders), as was the evidence (a podcast here: bit.ly/IslandEssentialsFMK) 👾 Behind the experience is a small team—but a special thank you to our legendary dev @tbc_eth for building this in record time—and defending the game from very motivated hackers. 🔍This was an ambitious project: a sprawling murder mystery and complex puzzle game with unpredictable social dynamics. Things didn’t always go to plan, but for us that was part of the fun. And it’s not over. The game will be available in a final format for a small fee (or free, tbd). The mystery lives on for new players to unravel. There will be a Season 2. More to come on that 🔜 💰While we didn’t make any money (in fact, we lost some), ambitious ideas are what make this space interesting. Keep building, keep experimenting, keep playing. If you're curious about the game or want to discuss future projects, feel free to reach out. Huge thank you to @lindaxie, @skominers, @digitlartifacts, @AlxBrands, @SHL0MS, @packyM, @yungjake, and many more. 🕊️ Until next time – signing off as a free man, Frodo
