Guild stories
From Axie to a guild that follows the games
CGG started playing together in 2020. Our deck tells the story of a community finding its way into new worlds, new competitions and new friendships.
Where we started
CGG began playing Axie Infinity in 2020. That shared starting point still matters: a guild is a group of people learning a game together, helping each other improve and finding a reason to come back.
The CGG pitch deck includes a testimonial from Sky Mavis co-founder Jeffrey Zirlin, known as Jihoz. He describes CGG, then CSG, as one of the earlier Axie guilds and points to its growth in the Philippines and Latin America. It is a historical account of the community, rather than a live membership count.
Following the games
The same testimonial names Pixels, Wild Forest, Lumiterra and Kaidro Chronicles as part of the guild's Ronin presence. Elsewhere in the deck, the story moves to Panzer Dogs and Genopets. Different games ask different things of players, from coordinated competitive play to exploration and everyday activity.
That variety is part of the appeal. A player can discover a game through somebody they already know, get help with a confusing first session and find teammates without starting from zero. A studio gets to hear from people who have actually spent time playing.
A competitive chapter
The deck's October 2024 Panzer Dogs case study describes CGG's participation in Battle of the Guilds. Lucky Kat's Jordan Walsh credits the community with onboarding players, coordinating its strategy and maintaining consistency across the 3-day event.
His testimonial is specific about the work behind the result. Showing up, helping other players and adjusting together are useful habits well beyond a single tournament. The full quotation is available in our testimonial section and the original deck.
The next game starts with people
Our game directory brings these different chapters together. It is a record of games and studios featured in the deck, with links to their own sites and communities. Some relationships are historical, and a logo in the directory is not a claim that a current campaign is running.
If you are new here, start with a game that interests you and introduce yourself in the CGG Discord. If you build games, our services page explains how we approach playtesting, creator content and community sessions. The starting point is the same: give people something worth playing together.
