SCOR on Sweet Launches Flappy Racquet Game Featuring Wimbledon Stars

SCOR on Sweet, a rapidly expanding Web3 mini-app ecosystem, has introduced its latest mini-game, Flappy Racquet, timed with the commencement of Wimbledon. This game, inspired by the widely popular mobile game Flappy Bird, offers an arcade-style tennis experience where users can compete using animated avatars of professional tennis players. Players can enhance their in-game performance and accumulate Gems, which are anticipated to be convertible to $SCOR, the platform’s digital currency. $SCOR can be utilized for real-world rewards, in-game upgrades, and exclusive merchandise.

Flappy Racquet, launching today, will soon feature a roster of prominent tennis athletes through a licensing agreement with Winners Alliance. Upcoming in-game avatars include Nick Kyrgios, Aryna Sabalenka, Barbora Krejcikova, Alexander Bublik, Naomi Osaka, Tommy Paul, Jasmine Paolini, Arthur Fils, Marketa Vondrousova, and others. Each athlete avatar provides unique power-ups when owned by a user, offering competitive advantages and additional ways to climb the leaderboard.

The game’s release coincides with Wimbledon, one of tennis’s most prestigious global tournaments. Several featured players have notable histories at the event: Barbora Krejcikova is the reigning singles champion and a two-time doubles winner, Marketa Vondrousova claimed the title in 2023, and Nick Kyrgios, a former finalist, is known for his dynamic playing style. Aryna Sabalenka, the 2024 year-end world No. 1, has consistently advanced to the late stages of the tournament. Fans who own these avatars can use them in-game to enhance performance and increase their Gem accumulation, which may soon be exchangeable for $SCOR.

“This is what SCOR on Sweet is all about – taking the sports we love and turning them into rewarding, competitive, and addictingly fun mini-games,” said Tom Mizzone, CEO of Sweet. “With Flappy Racquet, we’re combining nostalgia, elite athlete IP, and real-world rewards into a single experience. Whether you’re a diehard tennis fan, a web3 degen, or just someone who loves to compete, this is going to hit.”

As part of the collaboration with Winners Alliance, users can redeem the $SCOR earned in-game for exclusive items on the SCOR on the Sweet marketplace. Available rewards include signed, game-worn gear, virtual meet-and-greets with professional players, and other unique experiences developed in partnership with Winners Alliance.

“Our mission has always been to put athletes first, and this partnership with Sweet helps us deliver new value to tennis players and fans alike,” said Manny Redruello, VP of Games at Winners Alliance. “SCOR is more than a game – it’s a platform that celebrates the individual talents of the best tennis players in the world to create visibility and economic opportunity for the athletes and fun interactive experiences for their global fanbases.”

Flappy Racquet is now live and accessible through the SCOR on Sweet mini-app across Telegram, web, and mobile platforms. The launch of Flappy Racquet is a strategic move by SCOR on Sweet to capitalize on the excitement surrounding Wimbledon. By featuring top tennis stars and integrating blockchain technology, the platform aims to create a unique and engaging experience for players. This initiative not only enhances user engagement but also provides a novel way for players to earn digital assets, making it a win-win for both the platform and its users.
