- My Neighbor Alice officially launches Chapter One: A New Adventure — now live and browser-based.

- Chromia’s gasless model and on-chain progress storage redefine expectations for blockchain gaming.
In a landmark move for blockchain gaming, My Neighbor Alice has launched Chapter One: A New Adventure, marking the first complete and public release of the cozy farming and builder title. After multiple alpha seasons and years of development, the game is now available to play instantly via browser — no downloads, crypto wallets, or tokens required to get started.
Developed on the Chromia blockchain, My Neighbor Alice has consistently stood out for blending traditional casual gaming aesthetics with decentralized architecture. Now, with this full release, the game makes its most ambitious leap yet: providing a seamless entry point that mirrors Web2 convenience while leveraging the benefits of Web3.
“This launch is more than just a game update. It’s a proof point that Web3 can deliver the same seamless experience as Web2,” said Steve Haßenpflug, VP of Games at My Neighbor Alice. “No downloads, no wallets — just pure gameplay.”
One of the game’s standout features is its wallet-optional model, letting players jump in immediately and create a wallet only when they’re ready to mint items or save progress. This, combined with Chromia’s gasless transaction system and fully on-chain data storage (including player progress and world state), makes the experience feel smooth and modern — a rarity in the still-evolving blockchain gaming space.
Chromia co-founder Henrik Hjelte said, “This launch is a major milestone, not only for My Neighbor Alice but for Chromia as a platform. It shows how our architecture can power complex, persistent virtual worlds while keeping the experience smooth and user-friendly.”
Also debuting with the game is the integration of the ALICE token on Chromia’s mainnet, allowing deeper interaction with the game’s economy. While not essential to play, holding ALICE unlocks additional features and perks.
To further broaden its appeal, the game is launching with Pudgy Penguins integration — each of the 40,000 NFTs has been transformed into animated 3D companions, showcasing a commitment to cross-collection interoperability.
With Chapter One: A New Adventure, My Neighbor Alice positions itself not only as a delightful game for casual players but as a pioneer in shaping the future of accessible, community-driven Web3 experiences. The game is now available to play at https://myneighboralice.com/.
