• Yuga Labs and Faraway released “Dookey Dash: Unclogged,” a sequel to the endless runner game that is open to the public
• Unlike the original game which required an NFT to play, anyone can compete in the sequel for a $1 million prize pool
• The game features a creator mode that allows players to create and monetize their own in-game content
Yuga Labs, the creators of Bored Ape Yacht Club, have partnered with game developer Faraway to launch Dookey Dash Unclogged, a sequel to the popular endless runner mobile game Dookey Dash.
Anyone Can Now Play
Unlike the original game which required an NFT to play, the sequel is open to the public, giving anyone the opportunity to compete in a seasonal tournament with over $1 million in prizes.
“The first release had an amazing response so it made sense to expand beyond web3. Dookey Dash Unclogged is a casual, intuitive game that anyone can enjoy, but the token-gating can be a restrictive entry point. In the sequel, anyone can play whether they are an NFT-holder or not,” said Faraway Chief Product Officer Spencer Tucker.
Seasonal Tournament and Weekly Competitions
The game’s first season kicks off today with weekly recurring in-game leaderboard events where players compete for Golden Plungers, an in-game asset that grants access to an end-of-season esports tournament with $1 million in prizes.
Players who don’t qualify for the seasonal tournament still have opportunities to win each week in competitions for other prizes. In-game content like boosts, coins, and skins round out the rewards in both weekly and seasonal competitions.
Empowering Player-Created Content and Monetization
New to Dookey Dash Unclogged is the creator mode feature. The integration of Faraway’s Creator Suite allows players to upload 3D models or 2D art and create in-game avatars, vehicles, stickers and more as playable content.
These assets can be sold on Faraway’s Shop and used across over 9,000 gaming experiences, providing monetization opportunities for creators and interoperable owned content for players.
Mass Appeal Across All Platforms
“Whether you’re a pro gunning for the ultimate prize, a casual gamer looking to enjoy the campaign, or a content creator looking to build your brand and monetize your work, Dookey Dash has something for everyone,” said Yuga Labs CEO Greg Solano.
Dookey Dash Unclogged is now available globally on iOS and Android mobile devices as well as PC and Mac.
