CITY Holder kicks off Beach Party season
CITY Holder has rolled out its Beach Party season, providing a summer twist for players of the Telegram-based city builder. The event runs for 60 days and invites players to focus on building their cities with a beach-themed makeover.
The seasonal event replaces the game’s Gang Wars mode, which has temporarily gone on vacation. Instead, players can engage in a lighter experience while maintaining the essential build-and-earn loop, all while enjoying summer-inspired content.
New features and rewards
The Beach Party season introduces several new systems. A fresh batch of buildings is available, allowing players to construct and upgrade structures within their districts. An event pass at the center of this season offers prizes at various levels as players progress.
Cosmetics also receive an update. Beach Party includes new skins, frames, and coins, providing players with seasonal items to collect. A notable addition is a day-night cycle that adds visual diversity, allowing the city to transition through different times of day, enhancing the feeling of a lively environment.
Inside CITY Holder
CITY Holder is a Telegram mini-game in the Build-to-Earn genre. Players take on the role of a mayor, focusing on constructing and managing their cities. The game launched on August 1, 2024, and quickly gained traction, amassing over 4.2 million players during its development, with 3.7 million joining the last month before launch.
Developed by a team of veterans from major crypto projects and former Riot Games developers, the project positions itself as a polished competitor to simpler tap-to-earn games. Players generate income through city growth and improvements while competing globally via a leaderboard.
Earning opportunities with CITY
CITY Holder’s earning model centers on the CITY token. Players earn tokens by actively participating in the game, receiving drops for in-game achievements rather than through passive holding. The official Telegram channel supports gameplay with regular updates and combo posts to encourage daily engagement.
The team plans to list CITY on major exchanges, emphasizing the token’s role in real earning and investment potential. Seasonal features like the Beach Party event pass provide additional incentives for participation and collection.
Engagement through seasonal mechanics
The Beach Party season illustrates CITY Holder’s strategy for player retention. By rotating themed seasons that introduce new elements while temporarily pausing certain modes, the studio refreshes the game without altering its core city-building mechanics.
The 60-day timeline encourages players to progress through the event pass and complete collections, with Gang Wars scheduled to return after the season ends. With summer-themed content and a more dynamic city, CITY Holder aims to keep mayors engaged through this event. Players can dive into the Beach Party season directly via the CITY Holder Telegram app.
