Bongo Cat’s Innovative Approach: AI, NFTs, and Gamified Experiences
Steam Game Launch: From Meme to Interactive Entertainment
The Bongo Cat project, in collaboration with Irox Games, has launched a Steam idle clicker game, marking a rare attempt by a blockchain project to enter traditional gaming platforms.
The game will launch in April 2025, featuring simple yet highly entertaining gameplay: every time you type or press keys on your computer, the Bongo Cat on the screen will play the drums, continuously generating animations in rhythm. Players can collect boxes, skins, and other decorative items, and some props are also tied to NFTs for on-chain trading.
The game is sold for $1.99, and as of now, it has been downloaded over 30,000 times, receiving a “Very Positive” rating on Steam, further expanding the influence of the BONGO brand.
AI Smart Cat: Interactive Driven Token Usage
The development plan revealed by SolanaCompass shows that Bongo Cat is creating an AI cat agent, allowing users to interact with Bongo Cat through music rhythm, voice, keyboard input, and other methods.
More importantly, this interactive process will be linked to the blockchain, allowing users to earn $BONGO rewards by completing specific tasks. This move not only enriches the usage scenarios of the token but also enhances entertainment and immersion through AI.
The alpha test version is expected to go live by the end of Q3 2025, and users can obtain testing and airdrop qualifications by holding $BONGO.
NFT and blockchain game collaboration: empowering token circulation
In July 2025, Bongo Cat announced a partnership with the on-chain simulation game Let Them Trade to launch NFT items that can be used in the game. Players can unlock in-game resources, cat-themed characters, and decorations by holding $BONGO or purchasing the cooperative NFT.
In addition, the project team plans to launch an NFT series themed “Cat Universe” in the second half of the year, with each NFT having different levels and abilities, which can be used in on-chain mini-games or as DAO voting credentials in the future.
How can users participate?
- Hold $BONGO and pay attention to official announcements to participate in airdrops and test qualification applications.
- Participate in the Discord community challenge tasks to win limited edition NFTs and whitelists;
- Purchase launched cooperative NFT projects to gain early ecological rights.
Community-driven: Building an entertainment crypto culture
The Bongo Cat community spans platforms such as Telegram, X (formerly Twitter), and Discord, with the Discord community being particularly active, boasting over 30,000 active members.
Community activities include:
- Weekly Meme creation contest, the winner will receive a BONGO airdrop.
- KOL AMA live stream sharing project progress;
- Users co-create animations and emoticons, and high-quality content will be published on the blockchain as NFT.
Long-term goal: Bongo Cat hopes to be not just a meme coin, but a symbol of youth culture in the Web3 world—finding a balance between crypto, entertainment, AI, and creativity.
Summary
For novice users who want to participate in emerging Meme projects, Bongo Cat offers a low barrier to entry, strong entertainment value, and real use cases. In the future, if the game and AI features are fully launched, the project may advance to the Meme project 2.0 stage.
