Will Building a Telegram ‘Zoo’ With Doge and Pepe Make You Crypto-Rich?
Summary
Zoo, a new game on Telegram, has attracted over 16 million players since its launch in December 2024. It is a resource management game inspired by Zoo Tycoon, allowing players to build a zoo and earn in-game Zoo tokens, which will convert to on-chain ZOO tokens in an upcoming airdrop. Players can earn Animal Feed daily by completing simple tasks and use it to buy and upgrade enclosures. The gameplay is repetitive, requiring frequent logins to maintain progress. The developers are introducing costly new animals that may affect airdrop allocations. The mining phase ends on January 31, limiting progress for the airdrop. While past Telegram game airdrops have been disappointing, there is cautious optimism that Zoo could succeed.
