There are an incredible amount of crypto based games popping up in the gaming realm. This article will look at some of the more interesting ones either available now or available soon that work off of the Ether blockchain cryptocurrency.
Why Ether?
Ether is one of the oldest cryptocurrencies on the market. It has been chosen by many stellar games that have me very excited about the future of this particular crypto. It is also quite valuable. I must also mention that it is one of the few cryptocurrencies I own.
What makes a good Ether based game?
Any crypto game needs to be very customizable. This is primarily due to the fact that the games require the use of Ether to play. Ethereum is a very valuable currency. So, essentially, I want to look cool and have cool stuff if I am investing money in the game. The games below have the customization features, but they also look fun to play and invest into.
The Top 5 Ethereum Based Games on my radar:

Crypto Assault makes it to my number 4 spot solely based on its potential. It has immense potential; however, I am curious to see how it develops over time.
