About Tilted – Tilted Games

Our Stories

Tilted was founded by two classmates who reconnected in San Francisco after the launch of the Ethereum blockchain by Vitalik Buterin. The spark for their venture came from Vitalik’s story: when a game publisher deleted his World of Warcraft (WoW) account, he lost a significant portion of his net worth invested in the game. This experience drove Vitalik to create the Ethereum blockchain, ensuring players could own and protect their digital assets.

Apollo and Sarah, the co-founders of Tilted, were inspired by this idea and spent years discussing the same issue. They shared a deep passion for empowering players with true ownership of their game assets. Apollo, an active and casually competitive Fortnite player, understood the value of in-game items from a player’s perspective. Meanwhile, Sarah, one of the original community builders of Twitch, brought expertise in community engagement and player demand.

Together, their combined insights gave them a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and opportunities in the gaming space. This led them to create Tilted, a platform that not only safeguards player assets but also gives them the ability to trade and monetize their investments, ensuring they remain in control of the value they create.

Founder Background Vision

Apollo realized that many valuable in-game items often sit idle, offering no real benefit beyond gameplay. Determined to change this, he envisioned a solution where players could unlock the potential of their assets. By introducing Tilted, Apollo created a platform that provides a marketplace for in-game items, allowing players to trade, sell, or monetize their assets.

This innovative approach addresses a common challenge in gaming: unused items that hold value but lack utility outside the game. Tilted bridges this gap, ensuring players can maximize the worth of their collectibles while creating new opportunities for engagement and income generation.
