Key Takeaways
- Craft World by VOYA Games is redefining Web3 gaming with a fair, player-owned economy and accessible tap-to-play mechanics.
- Over 25 on-chain resources and real player control ensure utility, depth, and long-term sustainability.
- The game avoids speculation by focusing on fun-first experiences, meaningful token use, and true community participation.
As Web3 gaming pivots from speculation to sustainability, VOYA Games is making a bold entrance with Craft World, a tap-to-play resource farming game set in a whimsical dinosaur universe. Designed with a player-first mindset, Craft World is not just about collectibles — it’s building a fully on-chain, player-owned economy where fun and functionality collide.
We spoke with VOYA Games’ co-founder and CEO Oliver Löffler, a veteran mobile game developer, about the studio’s vision and how Web3 is changing the rules of game design.
From Idle Miner Tycoon to On-Chain Ecosystems
Löffler first rose to prominence with Idle Miner Tycoon, a mobile hit that saw over 100 million downloads and led to a 2021 acquisition by Ubisoft. In 2022, he launched VOYA Games to pursue a new challenge — building games where players control the economy, not just the gameplay.
“In Web2, we control everything. In Web3, players do. That changes everything,” Löffler shared. VOYA’s approach is to build from the ground up — no porting old games — using blockchain as infrastructure, not a gimmick.

Building Craft World: Tap-to-Play Meets On-Chain Depth
Craft World begins as an accessible tap-to-play game, but under the surface lies a complex Web3 economy. With 25+ on-chain resources, every item farmed or crafted has real utility — and ownership lives on the blockchain.
“These are real materials, not cosmetics,” Löffler says. “You can send them to a friend, trade, or lend them. We don’t control any of that — players do.”
Complementing Craft World is Project Voyager, a companion meta-game where players work together to build a starship for their dinosaurs, earning and spending resources through meaningful participation.
Sustainability Over Speculation
For VOYA, the focus is building games players love — even if the token goes to zero. Craft World’s in-game token, Dyno Coin, is utility-only and fair-launched: no insider allocations, no presales, and no financial gimmicks.
“Tokens should unlock more fun, not just more profit,” says Löffler. In-game “token sinks” like crafting, trading, and upgrading ensure a self-sustaining loop that discourages extraction.
Players have conducted over 100,000 in-game swaps daily, underpinned by player-provided liquidity pools. In the future, VOYA plans to integrate DeFi mechanics like lending protocols and futures markets to deepen player choice.
Toward a New Kind of Game Platform
With over 2.7 million accounts created in just 20 days and 40,000+ weekly active traders, Craft World is more than a game — it’s a live, evolving Web3 ecosystem. VOYA’s long-term ambition is to build a multi-game platform with shared tokens, assets, and player identity.
“If we do it right,” Löffler says, “VOYA won’t just be a studio. It’ll be a platform for a new kind of open, player-owned gaming universe.
