A Sam Bankman-Fried-linked online game Storybook Brawl would shut down its servers on May 1.
According to an April 25 statement on Twitter, the online game would shut shop after exploring different options. “We’ve explored different options, and unfortunately, there is no path forward,” the team wrote.
FTX acquired the digital game developer Good Luck Games LLC in March 2022. At the time, SBF said the purchase would explore the intersection of NFTs, crypto, blockchain, and gaming.
The free-to-play card game gained wide popularity after reports emerged that SBF played it during meetings and calls.
Meanwhile, reactions trailing the news have been largely positive, with many wishing it could continue operating. A gamer Gustavo Affonso said he would be happy to contribute if there was any crowdfunding to keep the game running.
SBF’s crypto empire collapsed in November 2022 after it experienced a bank run. Since then, the authorities have filed charges against executives of the firm, including SBF, who is currently facing several criminal charges.
