In this episode, we’re thrilled to explore the world of genre-blending with Frank Cheng, CEO of Apeiron, the innovative Roguelite x RTS Card Game that’s pushing the boundaries of strategic and action-packed gameplay. Aperion combines the thrill of real-time strategy with the strategic depth of card games, inviting players to step into the battlefield with a powerful Avatar and up to four Apostle companions. Each character brings unique skill cards to the table, creating a dynamic deck that players draw from and use in fast-paced battles requiring quick reflexes and tactical planning.
Apeiron also features an infinite roguelite dungeon, challenging players to see how far they can venture based on their chosen Avatar, recruited Apostles, and equipped Artifacts. Success in this dungeon depends on both strategic foresight and quick thinking as you adapt to real-time challenges.
In our conversation, Frank shares the inspiration behind Apeiron and the journey of merging these genres to create something truly unique. We dive into how Aperion balances the excitement of roguelite exploration with strategic, card-based mechanics to deliver an experience that’s more action-oriented than most card games yet more strategic than typical roguelites. Whether you’re a fan of strategic RPGs, card games, or real-time battles, this episode offers insights into the future of genre fusion in gaming and what makes Apeiron stand out.

Content verification happens on PlayFi’s decentralized AI compute layer, leveraging trustless, transparent ZK machine learning models. With PlayFi Oracles, builders can create interactive experiences that connect directly with the content people are watching, powering smart contracts for dynamic Web3 engagements.

In this episode of The Web3 Gamer, we talk with Harsh Rajat, the CEO of Push Protocl. Harsh, has over 12 years of entrepreneurial experience in various spectrums of tech, including system architecture, development, and design in different tech fields.
Push Protocol is the world’s first blockchain-agnostic decentralized communication protocol for Web3. It serves as an open network for validating and indexing all sorts of communication (notifications, chats, etc.) that can be seamlessly integrated by any crypto frontend (dApps, wallets, etc.). Any smart contract, dApp, or backend service can integrate Push to provide a communication layer through notifications or chats that are tied to the wallet addresses of users. By building this communication layer, Push Protocol addresses a major gap in Web3 infrastructure, enhancing the everyday experience for blockchain users.
The notifications (or any other communications) provided by Push are off-chain and gasless, except when a smart contract sends them (in which case the smart contract pays a slightly higher gas fee for the payload sent on the blockchain). These communications are encrypted and secure, utilizing Push's open network, which allows any dApp or crypto wallet to easily integrate them, making the lives of Web3 users much easier and more akin to Web2 UX. Push operates on a network of nodes called Push Nodes, responsible for the validation, storage, and delivery of notifications and chats.
To date, Push Protocol has been integrated with over 400 projects, including major partners like Lens, Polygon, Gitcoin, and Decentraland. The protocol is live on Ethereum, Polygon, and BNB Chain, with support for other major EVM and non-EVM chains coming soon. Push Notifications via gasless SDK and Push Chat SDK support all EVM chains as of now.
Tailored to seamlessly complement your digital lifestyle, Push Protocol is the perfect communication tool for Web3 users, offering real-time notifications and chats that integrate organically into your daily activities, whether you’re engrossed in other tasks or on the move. Its flexibility and accessibility provide a communication experience that fits your schedule and needs.
