The first-place winner was awarded $16,666.67, the second-place winner received $8,333.33, and the third-place winner was granted $3,333.33. Let's look at the outstanding projects that secured these coveted positions.

Energy Crisis Game

Taking the top spot on the Core blockchain, Energy Crisis Game impressed the judges with its engaging gameplay and unique concept. In this GameFi world, players can become successful oil tycoons. 

They can acquire oil fields, extract and sell oil, and gradually build their own petroleum empire. With its immersive experience and innovative mechanics, Energy Crisis Game captured the attention of the S-Prize competition.

OmniaVerse Cyborne

Securing second place in the GameFi category, Cyborne is a remarkable addition to the OmniaVerse GameFi ecosystem. This first-person shooter (FPS) game is available on Android, MacOS, and Windows platforms. 

What sets Cyborne apart is its integration with blockchain technology, enabling players to earn $BLOCK tokens while enjoying the game. $BLOCK serves as the primary utility token within the OmniaVerse ecosystem, providing users with additional incentives and rewards.

OmniaVerse Dice Game

Claiming the third spot in the GameFi category is another noteworthy project from the OmniaVerse ecosystem. The OmniaVerse Dice Game invites users to engage in thrilling duels with their friends, combining elements of chance and strategy.
