Crypto The Game Season One took the web3 industry by storm with 400+ players competing, flapping, and decoding their way to outlast each other in a massive internet game inspired by shows like Survivor, Squid Game, and Hunger Games.

The teaser for Season 2, Anon Island, just dropped and we sat down with founder Dylan Abruscato, an alum of SNL and HQ Trivia, to get a preview of whats to come, surprises from season 1, his predictions for the future of onchain gaming, and his advice for aspiring founders. Bonus: your host Chris Eberle was a CTG Season 1 finalist!
