From gamers to earners: How Lumen made blockchain invisible with Apillon’s embedded wallets
Lumen Games shows how Apillon's embedded wallets can make Web3 gaming a smooth, user-friendly experience—no wallets, no downloads, just play.

Web3 gaming is supposed to be a revolution. Ownership! Rewards! Interoperability! Instead, most players get wallet popups, browser extensions, and a crash course in loooong seed phrases.
Lumen Games decided to save the day.
They said “thanks, but no thanks” to the chaos. By using Apillon’s embedded wallets, they built a smooth, gamer-first experience where blockchain stays behind the curtain.
"Players log in with Face ID, not crypto anxiety."
What is Lumen Games?
Lumen Games is a Spanish-based studio with a simple goal: to make and display mobile games that people actually want to play.
Now they’re jumping into Web3—but on their own terms. No clunky wallet setups. No crypto hurdles. Just great gameplay, powered by invisible tech.
“Users don’t even realize they’re using blockchain. And that’s exactly the point.”
What did they build with Apillon?
Here’s the challenge: how do you bring blockchain to gamers without scaring them off? Lumen’s answer: Apillon’s embedded wallets. No installs, no extensions—just sign in and go.
Here’s what they unlocked:
- No wallet downloads: Wallets are baked right into the app.
- Passkey login: Face ID, fingerprint, or PIN—Web2 login vibes.
- Private key control: The keys are theirs, encrypted and secured with Oasis Confidential Smart Contracts.
- Multi-account support: One player, multiple personas, one device.
- Network switching: Need a new chain? Switch without breaking a sweat.

A literal game-changer
Most Web3 games make one critical mistake: they assume users are blockchain pros. But when you're asking someone to set up a wallet just to play a game, you’re not onboarding—you’re gatekeeping.
Lumen proved that players don’t need to know they’re using blockchain to benefit from it. With embedded wallets, the onboarding friction is gone, and players can simply jump in. The invisible infrastructure enables broader adoption, not just for Lumen but for the entire Web3 gaming industry.
Lumen flips that script. With embedded wallets, players can actually enjoy the perks of blockchain—like ownership and rewards—without even knowing it’s there.

What’s next: a gaming hub in the making?
Right now, Lumen’s platform hosts its own titles - alongside games from other studios, including big names like NFL Rivals and Pink. But with login, rewards, and wallet infra already in place, it’s not a stretch to imagine third-party games joining the party. Think: a full Web2.5 arcade with blockchain under the hood.
For developers, it’s an opportunity to publish games in an ecosystem where users are already onboarded and blockchain-ready. For players, it means less hassle and more fun.
“We give users control, without giving them headaches.”

Web3 doesn’t have to feel like Web3
The collaboration between Lumen Games and Apillon is a perfect example of what happens when you treat UX like a growth strategy. The blockchain is still there—handling wallet creation, user identity, and ownership—but it never gets in the way.
By making Web3 invisible, Lumen is setting the tone for what the next generation of games can look like: open, fun, and friction-free. That’s not just good for players—it’s great for adoption across the board.
“We’re not asking players to understand wallets. We’re asking them to enjoy the game.”
Anyone can join in. Build with Apillon!
More games. More Web3 projects. More integrations. Whatever comes next, one thing is clear: when onboarding becomes invisible, adoption becomes inevitable.
Build your block of Web3 and bring the future to the now.
