FOCGERS

In this FOCGING Chat, we sit down with Mugen—the founder of Runelabs and the mind behind Ponziland, a fully onchain game that might just be the most hyper-financialised game ever built. From yield-bearing gameplay to experimental mechanics that blur the line between speculation and strategy, Mugen walks us through how Ponziland dares players to embrace the degenerate, gamify TGE mechanics, and reimagine what "fun" looks like in the world of onchain finance.

We dive into the design philosophy behind Ponziland, early playtest insights, and the challenge of building a game where every click can carry financial weight. Mugen also shares how Runelabs is weaving in narrative layers through Daydreams Agents, outlines their go-to-market strategy, and teases what’s coming with the mainnet launch. If you’re into games that go full degen while still innovating in player experience—this one’s a must-listen.
