Hamster Kombat, a popular tap-to-earn game on Telegram, recently concluded its much-anticipated Season 1 by capturing a snapshot of player data for the upcoming HMSTR token airdrop. The game’s large community had eagerly awaited the season’s end, seeing it as a significant milestone.

However, what should have been a celebratory moment turned sour, as most players were disqualified from receiving the tokens they had spent months working towards. This disappointment overshadowed the game’s transition into what the developers call the “Interlude Season”. This new phase, designed to bridge Season 1 and the official launch of Season 2, aims to maintain player engagement while updates are finalized, and the HMSTR token is prepared for its release.

“The game doesn’t end with the snapshot. We are now entering Hamster Kombat’s Interlude Season! […] Participating in the Interlude and farming diamonds will give you an edge in the upcoming season!” the development team announced on their official X (Twitter) page.

Despite their efforts to spark excitement for the new season, the airdrop controversy continues to loom large. The uproar began when members of the crypto community revealed that nearly 63% of players were disqualified from receiving their HMSTR tokens. Many players had believed that accumulating Points Per Hour (PPH) was the main criterion for the airdrop, but just before the snapshot, a sudden rule change introduced an anti-cheat system that disqualified players based on key collection instead.

For many in the community, this last-minute disqualification felt like a betrayal. Players who had focused on boosting their PPH were disqualified without prior warning, while some users of multiple accounts and key generators still qualified for the airdrop.

Compounding the controversy, there is growing speculation over the potential value of the HMSTR token at launch, with concerns that it may list at just $0.01, leading to frustration about potential returns. Further dissatisfaction arose when Binance announced Hamster Kombat as the 58th project on its Launchpool platform. While this initially sparked excitement, it quickly became a point of contention.

Some community members argued that the project wasn’t ready for such a major platform, and concerns were raised about the sustainability of the tap-to-earn model and repeated delays.

Nevertheless, Hamster Kombat’s team remains steadfast in their commitment to the project. Despite ongoing controversies, they are confident in their roadmap and plan to launch the HMSTR token on September 26, as scheduled. The token farming period via Binance Launchpool is set to begin a week earlier, on September 19, allowing users to earn tokens ahead of the official launch.
