Spekter Games Secures $5M to Launch a Telegram Roguelite with Web3 Under the Hood
Spekter Games just dropped $5 million in pre-seed funding to roll out its first game, Spekter Agency, a Telegram-based roguelite that sneaks in Web3 rewards without all the crypto chaos.
Big names like a16z Speedrun, LVP, and BRV Capital are backing the mission.
The game? Think Vampire Survivors, but built for Telegram’s billion-user playground — with no downloads, no wallets, no weird Web3 hoops. It’s bite-sized, action-packed, and actually fun. Oh, and there’s passive blockchain magic happening quietly in the background, boosting retention and virality without wrecking gameplay.
TK (Taehoon Kim), the founder, knows his stuff — he led hits like Power Rangers: Legacy Wars, stacked 100M+ downloads, sold to Animoca, and now he’s back to fuse Web2 polish with Web3 potential.
This funding fuels Spekter’s next moves: scaling to other chat-based apps and traditional mobile stores, plus building a second game. If they nail the formula, Telegram could be the next surprise hit for mobile-first gaming.
