SuperGaming launches web3 tower defence game Ethernia
Mumbai: SuperGaming has revealed Ethernia, a new web3 game for PC and mobile playable in October 2022. In Ethernia players assemble a squad, wage battles, and strategise their way to victory.
Ethernia has been in development since the beginning of 2022. It’s a part of SuperGaming’s multi-year, multi-game endeavour to change how games are played while staying true to the company’s player-first and community-driven approach honed since its inception.
With Ethernia, SuperGaming hopes to solve one of the key issues plaguing this nascent ecosystem—most web3 games aren’t even games or fun. In addition to this, it said that it has combined its expertise in free-to-play with the power of web3 to elevate our player-first approach, allowing our players to own assets earned while playing.
The company said that in web3 games, the economy is as important as the gameplay itself. Ethernia’s economy has been designed to ensure a sustainable game that’s in line with SuperGaming’s ethos of making games people play for years.
SuperGaming VP of product Venkat Chandar said, “Our vision when we set out to build Ethernia was to have a long-term sustainable economy that’s resilient and in-line with player needs. The economy in Ethernia heavily focuses on the players and is created with them in mind. We hope this makes Ethernia a self-sustaining and thriving economy for all.”
Ethernia is powered by the Polygon blockchain. It resonates with SuperGaming’s vision of having a sustainable and thriving economy, along with low gas fees and a network that aims to make it a seamless experience for players of Ethernia.
The waitlist for Ethernia is open now on the game’s official site, with over 1,50,000 players signed up in the first week. Waitlist rewards include 500mETN, the native token for Ethernia.
More details regarding Ethernia’s Whitepaper and Tokenomics will be revealed in the run up to the October 2022 release, along with several contests and airdrops. Fans can also expect a deeper look into its factions, lore, and gameplay.

Imdb launches Dekh Bhais to simplify entertainment discovery
New creator-led series hosted by Rohan Joshi and Aaditya Kulshreshth turns scrolling dilemmas into lively conversations.
MUMBAI: Imdb has decided to end the endless “what to watch” scroll with a double tap of desi banter and smart recommendations. The world’s most popular source for movie, TV, and celebrity information has launched Dekh Bhais, a fresh digital series designed to make entertainment discovery fun, relatable, and effortless. Hosted by popular comedians and content creators Rohan Joshi and Aaditya Kulshreshth (better known as Kullu), the show streams across Imdb’s social channels and transforms everyday viewing confusion into candid, opinion-filled conversations.
Produced by Only Much Louder (OML) in collaboration with Imdb, Dekh Bhais cleverly showcases Imdb’s powerful discovery tools including Advanced Search, Interest pages, trending widgets, curated lists, and personalised recommendations through sharp, culturally resonant discussions.
Each episode features the hosts and a guest diving into personal favourites, pop culture references, genre preferences, and unexpected picks. The conversation culminates in a custom Imdb watchlist tailored to the chat, giving viewers a ready-to-binge lineup of recommendations.
Yaminie Patodia, Head of Imdb India, said, “Choosing what to watch today is more complex than ever. With Dekh Bhais, we explore the powerful intersection of personality-led recommendations and the rich insights available on Imdb. It creates a dynamic and entertaining way to navigate an overwhelming range of choices.”
Rohan Joshi shared: “We’ve all had that moment when we want to watch something but end up spending 20 minutes scrolling and second-guessing. Dekh Bhais is basically that scrolling session brought to life, but louder, more opinionated, and hopefully more useful.”
Kullu added: “IMDb has been a big part of my life since childhood. Our show mirrors how we actually discover films and shows in real life through jokes, debates, nostalgia, and strong opinions but it also shows how Imdb can help you cut through the noise.”
The opening slate explores different viewing moods and genres, with more episodes rolling out in the coming weeks. The series is now streaming on IMDb’s Youtube and Instagram channels, and is also available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Amazon Music.
In a world drowning in content choices, Dekh Bhais arrives as the perfect desi shortcut turning “too many options” into “here’s exactly what you’ll enjoy tonight.” With two sharp comedians at the helm and IMDb’s trusted data in the backseat, finding your next favourite watch has never been this entertaining.
