ABOUT TOKIGAMES
In an increasingly time-starved and saturated environment, audiences are less concerned with "what" your message is, but are instead more captivated by "why" they should pay attention.
We believe that spectating sports/esports ought to be an interactive, engaging and empowering experience that converts the passive spectator into an active audience by enabling fans to participate, and to feel included and involved, in the epic moments during the course of a live match.
The core feature of the platform is a free-to-play live fantasy platform where users will be able to participate in contests and engage in interactive gameplay during a live sports/esports match.
