Ethereum-based metaverse game Nifty Island has added support for interactive AI agents, letting creators drag and drop them into their in-game islands to turn them into interactive characters.

Players can choose to easily integrate a selection of popular AI agents like Luna, AgentYP, or VaderAI, or they can create and deploy their own custom agent. Once placed on an island, players can then engage with the agents who can talk back, dance, and take actions on-chain. 

“Just as we've done with NFTs and meme coins, our goal is to bring the things people are excited about on-chain into Nifty so people can play, create, and win prizes around them,” Nifty Island founder Charles Smith told Decrypt. “This is significant because up until now, crypto-native AI agents have functioned as chatbots on X. Now we've taken the first steps towards bringing them into games.”

By default, a user can only place an agent on their own island. However, users that hold at least 100,000 of the ecosystem’s native ISLAND token (nearly $3,000 worth) can deploy agents for use across all islands. 

Those deploying AI will have the option to inject Nifty Island knowledge into agents as well, allowing them to know island names and descriptions, as well as detailing points of interest or active Nifty Island quests in the future. 

“Using this heightened awareness of what is occurring in-game and on-chain, they can dispense prizes based on that activity and chat with players,” Smith said. “In the future they will be able to serve as more active game participants, aiding in creation and play.”

As part of its growing multi-chain approach, Nifty Island recently announced its plans to build out the integration of Ronin, an Ethereum sidechain with strong gaming foundations. It also launched its ISLAND token for trading on Solana. 

The platform completed its play-to-airdrop campaign in December 2024, rewarding participating users with ISLAND, the ecosystem token that initially launched on the Ethereum blockchain.
