Navigate the Bitcoin Mempool Dungeon
You are a Bitcoin transaction dropped into the Mempool Dungeon. Walk the stone corridors, raise your fee, fight mempool goblins, and reach the glowing Halving Gate to get confirmed into a block.
Click the game to focus controls. Six levels, growing danger, and Dungeon Master-style exploration. Use arrow keys to move, Space to interact, A/S/D/Q/F for Slash/Cast/Defend/Scan/Tonic. Scout Scan reveals the map and disarms traps ahead.
What this game teaches
- The mempool is the waiting room where Bitcoin transactions queue before a block.
- Fee boosts help miners pick your transaction when blocks are full.
- Eviction risk rises for low-fee transactions when new blocks leave no room.
- Confirmation means your transaction is settled inside a block on the blockchain.
- RBF (replace-by-fee) is rebroadcasting with a higher fee when blocks are full.
- Levers and pressure plates open locked relay doors, like routing shortcuts in a busy mempool.
Six levels from The Waiting Halls to the Confirmatory Vault. Fight goblins, minotaurs, and dust ghosts. Disarm traps with Scout Scan, pull levers, step on pressure plates, and confirm at the Halving Gate before eviction risk maxes out. Clear a level to earn a bonus tonic.
