## **From Social Games to Social Dapps – The Evolution of the Gaming Industry**

In the past, standalone web games struggled to attract users. However, with the rise of powerful social platforms like Facebook, developers such as Zynga leveraged these platforms to achieve rapid growth, reaching millions of users and establishing themselves as major players in the gaming industry.

Today, the Web3 gaming market faces a similar challenge—it is difficult for standalone Web3 games to attract users, and reaching traditional gaming audiences remains a significant hurdle. However, by leveraging platforms like Telegram and LINE, which already have massive user bases, Web3 games have the potential to reach a much broader audience.

This concept is what we call "Social Dapps" (Social Decentralized Applications)—a new paradigm in gaming.

Captain Tsubasa -RIVALS- on LINE integrates Web3 mechanics while utilizing familiar platforms like Telegram and LINE, creating an environment where users can seamlessly experience Web3 without any barriers. This marks a major step toward achieving true mass adoption of Web3 gaming.
