App Roulette (mini-app)
Discover Base Ecosystem Apps & Win $CITY Tokens
What is App Roulette?
App Roulette is a small test project - a Farcaster mini app built to explore the mini app development experience while helping users discover the vibrant ecosystem of apps built on Base. Think of it as a "discovery roulette" that introduces you to amazing apps while rewarding your exploration with $CITY tokens. This is just the beginning! While App Roulette serves as our testing ground for mini app development, we have much bigger things coming. For now, enjoy discovering new apps, winning $CITY tokens, and being part of our journey as we take part in the future.

Our mission is twofold:
