New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art, commonly known as The Met, has launched a blockchain game called Art Links – allowing visitors to better engage with its collection of artworks.
Available via The Met’s website, Art Links sees users find connections between different pieces of art within The Met’s works, encouraging participants to learn and discover more about the pieces they hold.
Through this process, participants can be rewarded with NFT badges – with a grand prize of a year-long membership to The Met, or a private curator-led tour of the museum.

What is The Met?
The Metropolitan Museum of Art, commonly known as The Met, is an art museum in New York City. It’s the fourth-largest museum in the world, and the most-visited museum in the United States.
Founded in 1870, The Met has grown into one of the world’s leading art institutions. Featuring vast exhibitions of art from ancient Egypt and classical antiquity through to contemporary pieces, its primary goal is to be a place “where the rich and complex narratives of art can be presented in a manner that reflects the diversity of experiences and perspectives that inform their creation.”
Throughout its history, The Met has often been a front-running force in art collection and curation – and as they embrace blockchain technology for the first time, they’ve shown themselves to still be a forward-thinking organisation to this day.

What is Art Links?
Art Links is a blockchain game by The Met, created in collaboration with TRLab.
The game serves as The Met’s first major foray into blockchain technology. Players are tasked with identifying connections between different works at The Met to earn NFT badges and achievements. A total of 12 NFT badges and 7 achievements are available to earn over the next 12 weeks, giving players plenty of time to get stuck in.
New challenges will be released each week over the coming months. Those that collect all of the NFT badges and achievements on offer will be entered to win a grand prize – a year-long membership to The Met, or a private curator-led tour of the museum.
Week 1 of the game is available to play now on The Met’s website.
