Play-To-Airdrop Guide
To celebrate their early access launch and the debut of their $NYAN token, 9 Lives Interactive hinted at a play-to-airdrop campaign where participants could earn free tokens just for participating in the early access phase.
Playing matches will earn players points called MEOW, which will eventually be factored into their airdrop rewards. The campaign will have three stages, keeping things exciting throughout the testing period.
To join:
👉 STEP 1: Head over to https://missions.nyanheroes.com/.
👉 STEP 2: Connect to your X or Epic Games account.
👉 STEP 3: Earn MEOW points by:
- Completing quests
- Referrals
👉 STEP 4: MEOW points can be exchanged for $NYAN tokens in the future. Keep an eye out for further announcements.
Double Your MEOW Points
From March 30th to April 1st, players can earn twice the MEOW points toward their airdrop rewards.
You have until April 9th to rack up MEOW points in the Epic Games Store demo (which will be removed then). All your accumulated MEOW points will be stored and converted into $NYAN tokens on the Solana blockchain.
Final Thoughts
Nyan Heroes has not revealed the conversion rate for MEOW to $NYAN yet, but that shouldn’t stop you from playing! The play-to-airdrop campaign is expected to run for the entirety of the early access testing phase, so there’s plenty of time to rack up MEOWs and contribute to the community.
