Hamster Kombat’s user base drops as players turn their attention to a new favorite: the Paws Mini App. Paws is doing well in its performance charts and has a very active user base.
Hamster Kombat’s user base increased from 300 million in August to 41 million active players by early November, marking an 86% decrease.
Why Is Hamster Kombat Losing Players?
Until recently, Hamster Kombat dominated the Telegram game market with typical, easy-to-play tap-and-earn mechanics, which brought millions of new users into the game. However, the game has been facing some serious challenges

Many Iranian officials targeted Hamster Kombat as a bad game. Rumors about bans in some countries, such as Uzbekistan, were inaccurate. However, the controversies have tarnished the game’s image, forcing some people to abandon it.
Market Competition
When Hamster Kombat experienced these problems, Paws appeared and soon took off. In eight days, Paws attracted 20.5 million users—fast surpassing Hamster Kombat’s growth when it launched.

Hamster Kombat’s token, HMSTR, is also in decline. HMSTR has dropped close to 70%, from as high as $0.01 in September to $0.0022 in early November. There have also been 36% fewer active user addresses in the last week, showing diminishing interest in the game’s token economics.
The Rise of Paws
Paws has risen since its launch on the Telegram social platform. This new Mini App saw over 11 million users in the first two days and continues to build a strong community. On November 4, the Paws team reached ten million connected wallets and one million followers on X (Twitter)—all these points toward the fact that the app has found an audience eager for new gameplay.

Hamster kombat’s Future Plans
Despite the setbacks, Hamster Kombat isn’t backing down. The development team has ambitions to always release new game versions with new features. These new features include payment, new games, and even NFTs as items within the game.
These updates could help people become interested in the game again. We will see if these changes and upgrades can compete with Paws’ tremendous growth with time.
Dear CEOs

At the same time, analyzing trends, there is specific evidence that competition in the Telegram gaming industry is growing. Like Hamster Kombat, other popular games on the Telegram platform face similar customer interaction and token value decline, such as the DOGS token airdrop case. As the activities reduced from August through early November, the price of the DOGS tokens dropped from $0.0014 to $0.0004 as well.
