Hamster Kombat recently banned over 9 million players for cheating during Season 1. These players won't receive any rewards from the first season, though they remain in the game. Only those who played fairly will benefit from Season 1's proceeds.

Here’s how they identified cheaters:

1. Mass Key Generators: Players who used key generators to collect thousands of keys were flagged. The game's design expected players to balance gaming with other activities. The team set a trap by emphasizing keys in token allocation without explaining how they would be used, catching many cheaters off guard.


2. Wallet Linking: Players were allowed to add any withdrawal method, but the team silently linked wallets to catch syndicates.


3. Bot Usage: Some players used bots to manipulate the hexagon game

4. Late Entry Fairness: The game introduced high-paying pph cards to help latecomers level up faster, but cheaters exploited this feature

5. Referral System: The referral system was also used to track down cheater networks
