An Introduction To BOOK GAMES: What It Is & How To Play

BOOK GAMES is a VeeFriends NFT collection where tokens can be burned (exchanged) for exclusive rewards and experiences through Burn Island. Launched in 2022, the supply of BOOK GAMES decreases over time as holders burn their tokens, creating built-in scarcity. BOOK GAMES are managed through the VeeFriends Wallet for a simple, secure experience. Let's break it all down.


The Origins of BOOK GAMES

The BOOK GAMES collection launched in 2022 as a gift to those who purchased 12 copies of VeeFriends creator Gary Vaynerchuk's book, Twelve and a Half: Leveraging the Emotional Ingredients Necessary for Business Success. Each BOOK GAMES NFT depicts one of 13 characteristics from the book, with original artwork by Gary. All of these NFTs have their own rarity of Attribute, Spectacular Type, and Token Frame.

The collection began with 125,000 tokens. As holders burn their BOOK GAMES tokens, the total number of tokens available decreases, driving scarcity and impacting rarity dynamics. Presently, more than 22% of BOOK GAMES have been burnt, leaving just 97,675 tokens available as of October 21st, 2025. Holders can burn BOOK GAMES for exclusive exchanges and access opportunities during ongoing events on Burn Island.

Burn Island: Where BOOK GAMES is Played

Burn Island is a mobile-friendly platform where collectors can burn BOOK GAMES tokens to earn special rewards, including:

These activations are featured in the form of "Eruptions" or "Treasure Chests" on Burn Island.

  • Eruptions: Limited time events with specific VeeFriends NFT holding requirements. You can only enter if you have the required tokens, and then burn BOOK GAMES to claim your reward.

  • Treasure Chests: Short, time-sensitive opportunities where you can submit your interest and commit to burn select BOOK GAMES for a limited number of physical or digital prizes. If selected through our fair entry draw process, your tokens are automatically burned to claim your prize.

Fair Entry Draw on Burn Island

Burn Island now supports limited-time draws, giving everyone a fair shot at exclusive prizes. Inspired by drop systems like EQL, the new Fair Entry Draw allows users to enter for a specific prize and commit to burning the required tokens only if selected. If you're not chosen, your tokens remain untouched.

This new system helps make Burn Island events more accessible, and timezone-friendly for the entire community. It's important to keep the Book Games you commit to burn in Fair Entry Draws in your VeeFriends Wallet until a winner is drawn. If your Book Games are moved during the draw, your entry will be voided.

The VeeFriends Wallet: How BOOK GAMES Are Used

To streamline BOOK GAMES activations, VeeFriends created the VeeFriends Wallet. Activating (or transferring once activated) your tokens into the VeeFriends Wallet is only required for the full BOOK GAMES experience. Holders can only burn their BOOK GAMES tokens on Burn Island through the VeeFriends Wallet. This wallet unlocks seamless access to Burn Island, redemptions, and future utility without needing browser extensions, seed phrases, or complicated setups.

Key Benefits:

  • Single sign-on email-based login

  • Mobile-friendly access to Burn Island

  • Gasless transactions for Burn Island events
