# Mobile Creature-Collector Games Genopets is a Move-to-Earn NFT Game for Mobile Devices By Colin Smith | Published 2022-07-27 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/genopets References: [genopets.me](https://www.genopets.me/)  '[Magic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-wireless-microphone) Eden,' a San Francisco-based game developer and web3 company, announced 'Genopets,' a [move-to-earn mobile game](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lawa). According to the developer, Genopets is the world's first move-to-earn game, that is to say a game that provides monetary compensation for moving one's physical body in the real world. At its core, Genopets is a mobile NFT-powered game that utilizes the GPS and camera on each player's phone. The game then rewards players with Genopets, collectible digital creatures, as they move around in the real world and catch more Genopets. On top of this, players will be able to train and raise their Genopets to fight against other players and wild Genopets. This game will feature a web3 NFT marketplace based on the [Solana](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neopets-metaverse-collection) blockchain, allowing players to transform in-game earnings into real money through digital wallets.
