Kandr is a play-to-earn (P2E) game that operates as a mini-app on the Telegram platform, designed to provide players with financial rewards through interactive gameplay. The project aims to create an experience where users can earn by participating in various in-game activities and engaging with partnered applications. ^[7]​

Overview

Kandr launched on social media in September 2024 and is structured as a gaming project accessible through a Telegram bot. The core of the game is a task-based reward system where players complete daily activities and interact with partnered applications to earn the project's native token, KANDR. The gameplay also incorporates narrative elements, which are referenced in community quizzes about in-game lore, such as different crews and their respective leaders. The project identifies with Web3 and blockchain technologies, though specific details about the blockchain it operates on have not been publicly disclosed. The project maintains an official announcement channel, which has over 7,000 subscribers, and a separate community chat on Telegram. ^{[2] [3] [4]}​
