Which one should you start with?
If you want a real game, start with Lightning Quest or Crypto Crops. If you want something that runs while you're away, BTC Scrapper is the most hands-off. Whichever you pick, set up FaucetPay first. The beginner guide walks through it.
How much can you earn?
Expect small amounts: typically a few hundred to a few thousand sats a week if you play daily. These games are fun with a bonus, not a salary. Withdraw regularly rather than letting balances sit on any one site.
