Is Soltokemons free and legit?

Yes. The entire core game - exploring the open world, catching creatures, battling trainers and finishing the story - is completely free in your browser, with no download and no payment.

No. You can play everything without a wallet or any crypto. A wallet is only needed if you choose to mint an optional Genesis NFT. You can even play as a guest, though logging in with Google or a wallet saves your progress across devices.

No - it's a normal free game first, with an optional Solana layer on top. In-game coins are off-chain, free to earn by playing, and only buy in-game items; they are not a cryptocurrency and have no cash value, and there is no cash-out anywhere in the game.

$STKM is an optional Solana SPL token, completely separate from the free game and from in-game coins. You never need it to play. It exists only for the optional NFT mint. We're built in public with a public developer and public on-chain addresses - judge for yourself: X (https://x.com/soltokemons), Telegram (https://t.me/soltokemons), and the token contract J9pe2mh7NUrJPNiUmu6JrzGm3rTYT2TPZxQz3G5cpump on Solscan.

No. The Genesis NFTs are entirely optional cosmetics/collectibles bought with $STKM on the /mint page. They are not required to play, progress, or win - the game is balanced around the free experience.

Yes - Soltokemons is actively built in public. New creatures, zones and features ship regularly, and the Creature Codex and guides on this site are generated from the live game data.

Any modern browser - desktop or mobile. There's nothing to install. Just open soltokemons.com and play.

Open the game, choose a starter at Prof. Willow's lab, then explore and catch creatures in the wild. See the beginner guide for a full walkthrough.
