Gomble Games Disrupts Web3 Gaming With Decentralized Dev Platform—Wall Street Still Doesn’t Get It
Game studios just got a new weapon—and it’s not another overpriced NFT drop.
Gomble Games flips the script with GOMBLE BUILDERS, a decentralized platform putting power back in developers’ hands. No gatekeepers, no rent-seeking middlemen—just raw tools to ship Web3 games faster.
The kicker? This isn’t vaporware. The team’s already proven traction with previous hits—unlike those ‘metaverse’ land grabs still collecting digital dust.
Traditional gaming giants should sweat. If this takes off, their 30% app store cuts start looking even more predatory.
Mobile gaming market grows rapidly
Gomble Games is a South Korean game studio with over 100 million users across its games. Unlike most crypto games, Gomble targets mobile app stores and is designed to appeal to a mainstream audience, not just crypto natives. The finished games are meant to be played for enjoyment, and not for crypto rewards.
The mobile gaming market was worth $92.6 billion in 2024, and its revenues are projected to reach $126.06 billion in 2025. Unlike traditional console and PC games, mobile games are typically more accessible and appeal to casual players.
Still, because of high development costs, the gaming industry has significant barriers to entry. For this reason, more and more games, especially in Web3, are turning to collaborative game development, where expertise is crowdsourced from the community.
Despite the growth in traditional gaming, blockchain-based games declined in popularity in 2025. In April, the number of daily active users dropped 10%, to 4.8 million, the lowest level of engagement since the start of the year.
