Unfortunately, that's all the information we have at the moment. We don't even get a screenshot. :(
The Partnership Between PlayEmber and Pudgy Penguins
This collaboration highlights the strengths of its partners. Pudgy Penguins brings its name recognition, massive web3 brand appeal, and its rapidly running hype-train while PlayEmber already has a proven track record of releasing polished mobile gaming experiences.
On top of that we have an integration with the Abstract Chain, a soon to be released (this month supposedly) gaming focused blockchain developed by the Pudgy Penguins brand. And with the amount of buzz already generated around the Abstract Chain, it may launch out of the gate like a rocket!
