// open beta · testflight

The game ships to the mob through TestFlight, Apple's free app for trying games before they reach the App Store. The invite is public: anyone with an iPhone or iPad on iOS 17 or later can install it and play.

  2. Open the invite on your iPhone

    Tap the invite link on the iPhone or iPad you want to play on. It opens the Nearkats page inside TestFlight.

  3. Accept, then Install

    Tap Accept, then Install. Nearkats lands on your home screen like any other app, with a small orange dot next to the name.

  4. Open Nearkats and play

    New builds show up in TestFlight with an Update button, or turn on automatic updates there. Each build is good for 90 days and the next one resets the clock.

It is a beta. Found a bug, or the dragon owes you? Open the Nearkats page inside TestFlight and tap Send Beta Feedback, or take a screenshot in the game, tap it and choose Share, then TestFlight: it reaches the team with your device details attached. Email works too: support@nearkatmobmining.com.

One Nearkat, one desk, and a room that keeps getting nicer. The short version:

You tap, he trades

A degen Nearkat at a desk with a cracked phone, the whole trench above him. You tap, he trades, the room gets nicer. It gets a lot nicer: there is a penthouse up there.

Lock your pile

The drones can see your pile. Lock it. Some things in the room will try to take it and some will double it. Nobody is explaining which. There is also a dragon. Don't ask.

Read the fragments

The fragments that turn up on the desk open on the CRT, and they are real facts. Reading pays, in the game's own currency.

ZEC is found, not bought

ZEC can't be bought. It can be found. There are no in-app purchases and no ads, so there is nothing to buy anywhere in the game.

Wen lambo

When you've earned the garage. The lambos live there, and the newest one parks in the window.

Mobs of twenty

A mob is up to twenty Nearkats in one room. A full mob is a different game.

And then it rains

Every $NEARKAT transfer pays 3% to holders, in NEAR, automatically. The game listens to that feed: in the game it is rain, and every open burrow catches it at the same time. Storms send a push to every Nearkat who opted in.

What falls in the room is game currency. In-game NEAR is fictional: nothing is paid out, nothing is promised, and the app never shows a real balance.

// 04 · straight answers

Is it free?
Yes. TestFlight is free, the game is free, there are no ads and there is nothing to buy inside it.
Do I need a wallet?
No. No wallet connect, no signatures, no approvals. Nothing real changes hands.
Is the NEAR in the game real?
No. In-game NEAR is a fictional game currency. Nothing is paid out and the app never shows a real balance. Your real bag is on-chain, and the game only listens to it.
Android?
Not yet. iPhone and iPad first, iOS 17 or later.
Will I lose my burrow when the App Store version comes out?
No. The App Store build replaces the TestFlight one in place and your save comes with it. Sign in with Apple inside the game if you also want a cloud copy.
Is it official?
Yes, it is the official $NEARKAT game. It is not affiliated with NEAR, Apple or StonkFun.
