Even though NFT giant Yuga Labs is still checking Dookey Dash’s leaderboard scores, early numbers from the skill-based mint show that the game has been a big hit with the Bored Ape Yacht Club community.
From January 19 to February 8, about 26,000 people who had a Sewer Pass NFT could play the game. During that time, each person who played Dookey Dash played for an average of almost 28 hours, which is over 80 years total. Gamers also played 7.5 million runs all together.
Also, more than 8,000 players used ApeCoin, the governance token for the community’s ApeCoin DAO, to buy in-game power-ups. As of this writing, players spent about $2.2 million, or 425,000 ApeCoin.
“Our pack of weirdos has gotten bigger and weirder,” Yuga Labs said in a blog post. “During Dookey Dash, our BAYC ecosystem grew by 40%. Love to see it.”
Yuga told people in early January about its skill-based mint, which lets Bored Ape and Mutant Ape owners mint a Sewer Pass NFT. The mint opened a week later, and users could mint into one of four tiers based on how much NFT they had. In the first few hours after it opened, it made $6 million in sales.
Yuga said that it still needs to check the leaderboard to find people who tried to cheat or hack the game. It also hinted at the next parts of the game by mentioning the “lick the toad” phase, in which players can go back to the sewer and get “companion traits” based on how well they did.
