About Gotchi Guardians
What is Gotchi Guardians?
Gotchi Guardians is a free-to-play multiplayer tower-defence survival game built by Pixelcraft Studios, the team behind Aavegotchi, and set in that same pixel-art world of ghostly, wearable-equipped Gotchis. It is directed by Jason Slama, and the design deliberately mixes two things that usually stay apart: the placement-and-upgrade planning of classic tower defence, and rapid-fire action combat where you are personally shooting at what your towers cannot stop. Waves escalate until you are overwhelmed, which puts it closer to a survival game than a puzzle. It runs on PC through Steam and in the browser, with a native mobile version listed as coming soon and no date given, and its on-chain layer runs on Base. The game is live and receives versioned updates.
How to play Gotchi Guardians
Gotchi Guardians is free to play and does not require owning an Aavegotchi to start, which is the main thing worth knowing for anyone arriving from outside that ecosystem. Play through Steam or straight in the browser. Connecting a wallet is optional and lets you use your Aavegotchi NFTs as in-game skins. A run consists of surviving escalating waves: place and upgrade defensive structures along the routes enemies take, then fight directly alongside them as the pressure builds, balancing what you spend on towers against what you keep for yourself. Multiplayer is the intended mode, so runs are shared rather than solitaire, and coordination over who covers which lane is what separates a long run from a short one.
Gotchi Guardians tokenomics & earning
The in-game currency is G-Bucks, which players can buy with GHST on Base or with a debit or credit card through Xsolla. GHST is the token of the wider Aavegotchi ecosystem. At the browser launch in March 2025, the studio ran a clip bounty that paid 100 to 1,000 GHST per submitted gameplay video, with no guaranteed amount. The dapp page lists rewards without giving terms, and Pixelcraft's 2026 plan lists only occasional tournaments and events for the game. As of November 2026, no fixed per-run payout is documented.
Our verdict
Gotchi Guardians is a free-to-play multiplayer tower-defence survival game from Pixelcraft Studios, the team behind Aavegotchi, directed by Jason Slama. It runs on PC through Steam and in the browser, with a native mobile version listed as coming soon and no date given, and its on-chain layer runs on Base. Owning an Aavegotchi is not required to start, and a wallet is optional.
What works is the mix of tower-defence planning and action combat. You place and upgrade defensive structures along the routes enemies take and fight alongside them as waves escalate, and shared multiplayer runs make coordination over lanes matter. The game director has also published a strategy video aimed at new and returning players, and the game receives versioned updates.
The risks sit on the reward side. GHST buys the G-Bucks currency and funded the March 2025 clip bounty of 100 to 1,000 GHST per video, so its value moves with the token. The dapp page gives no payout terms and no fixed payout per session is documented. Pixelcraft's 2026 plan for the game is maintenance and events, and it says major new content is unlikely in 2026.
It suits Aavegotchi players and tower-defence fans who want shared survival runs. Anyone looking for guaranteed income should look elsewhere.
