One of the event’s highlights was the Easter-themed Swamp, filled with surprises for ‘Voyagers.’ As participants sought an “escaped goat” following light signals, exclusive access to the renowned Clubhouse was reserved for Apes and Mutants, NFTs that currently command high values starting at $76,476 (22.28700 ETH) and $13,381.35 (3.90000 ETH), making entry a considerable investment.

The ‘KODA CAM’ emerged as a standout feature, enabling players to capture and share in-game snapshots, praised for facilitating the sharing of Ape-themed selfies online.

Not a gamer, but the Otherside was awesome. Took a selfie in front of the Clubhouse and ran into a bunch of Apes everywhere. Well done. Even non-gamers expressed admiration for the Otherside journey, with one X user stating

Otherside’s Triumph Over Challenges

Despite a bumpy start with high gas fees in May 2022, Otherside has evolved into a hub for creativity and community, witnessing a surge in $ApeCoin value and $450 million in funding after its April 2022 launch. However, challenges, such as high gas fees and execution issues with ‘Legends of the Mara,’ dampened spirits temporarily.

The recent ‘Apes Come Home’ event marks a significant turnaround for Yuga Labs and Otherside. The metaverse project not only welcomed back co-founder Greg Solano as CEO but also saw the acquisition of PROOF, leading to an 80% increase in Moonbirds‘ value. ‘Apes Come Home’ symbolizes a creative and engaging Otherside, hinting at a promising future of seamless and captivating ventures.
