I suggested this as a growth idea for Steemit but I’m going to try it again for Zappl:
What about a game section that rewards players with Steem?
Players could opt to play for free or upvote leaderboard posts to qualify for Steem rewards so that the whole thing can fund itself. The games could be clones of simple games like Snake, Pacman or Tetris initially and the whole thing could be expanded on further as it grows in popularity.
It serves two purposes: it gives more people a reason to use Zappl every day even if they’re not interested in microblogging regularly AND it helps people who aren't successful bloggers a chance to acquire Steem for their gaming prowess.
Thanks for reading. This is the original growth-idea post: https://steemit.com/growth-idea/@elementm/growth-idea-an-upvote-financed-game-section-or-site
