🎲Player vs Player

Most gambling platforms struggle to deliver true Player vs Player (PvP) gameplay. This is where Ape Church stands out. The concept is simple and powerful:

• Players choose a game.

• They join a table with a predefined wager.

• The platform automatically determines the outcome and rewards the winner(s).

Every PvP game on Ape Church is completely peer-to-peer—these games do not interact with the house.

For example, players A, B, C, D, and E might all enter the same PvP game. Depending on the rules of that game:

• One or more players will win the prize pot or a portion of it.

• The remaining players will lose their stake to the winner(s).

This structure creates a true competitive environment where players face off against each other—without a house edge skewing the odds. There is no house involvement in these games. They are designed for head-to-head or multi-player competition, scaling anywhere from 2 to 10,000 players.

To enter, players simply approve a transaction and commit their stake to the game’s smart contract. The game begins once all required players have joined.

Some games may offer a voting mechanism, allowing players to start early if not all seats are filled—based on what's fair and functional for that specific game.

PvP game types will vary: some will be winner-takes-all, while others will support multiple winners, letting players select their preferred balance of risk and reward.

We expect PvP games to be one of the most compelling aspects of Ape Church, attracting both new and returning players. With no bias, no middlemen, and no centralized influence, every game is fair, transparent, and fully on-chain.
