History

The game quickly gained popularity, especially on platforms like Crazy Games[5] contributing to its growing player base. As of 2023, Bloxd.io boasts 3 million monthly players. The game’s success is largely attributed to its engaging gameplay, ease of access[6], and ability to iterate based on player feedback quickly. [7]
