About

Gigling Racing is an onchain horse-racing game from Gigaverse where players race a Gigling — a lovable two-legged horse — against others for ETH stakes or just for fun. It runs on the Abstract chain and is playable directly at giglingracing.com without needing an existing Gigaverse account.

What is Gigling Racing

Gigling Racing is a skill-and-strategy racing game built by the team behind playgigaverse. Each player fields a Gigling whose hidden traits are revealed over time through racing, so learning your Gigling is part of the game.

Gameplay

Each race fields up to eight Giglings, and outcomes are shaped by per-Gigling attributes such as race-phase stats, factions, and track-condition preferences. Players can host races and set the terms — entry fee, distance, and whether items are enabled. Optional items let racers boost themselves or sabotage rivals, and every race is resolved onchain through a dedicated Race Oracle for fair, transparent results.

Economy & Assets

Races are entered with ETH, and the bulk of each entry pool is paid out to the winners rather than the house. Each Gigling has a finite racing career, which makes breeding central to the economy: pairing Giglings produces new racers and keeps the population balanced while passing on desirable traits.

Team & Backing

Gigling Racing is developed by the gigaverse team and shares the studio's playgigaverse account. It sits alongside the broader Gigaverse onchain RPG and the gigaverse-giglings companion collection on Abstract.

Gigaverse is in a major transition phase: The Awakening event ended on Nov 13, the Abstract Chain is shutting down Dec 15, and the legacy game is being replaced by 'Gigaverse Online.' The team is migrating ROMs to ETH Mainnet before the chain dies (Dec 15 deadline). Community engagement appears low (most posts have <50 hearts), but a key influencer @Kanaz3r was teased as a new 'Master of the Gigaverse' 5 days ago. The team is also planning an interactive 'Hall of Noobs' in-game, but no launch...

Gigaverse is executing a major migration off Abstract Chain (shutting down Dec 15) to ETH Mainnet before the deadline, while simultaneously transitioning from legacy Gigaverse to Gigaverse Online. The project is capitalizing on massive momentum—2M YouTube subscribers reached 5 days ago with 10.5M+ daily views—but players must act before Oct 9 when The Awakening event ends and the Burn Pit closes, or risk losing non-Eternal items to automatic destruction.
