PixelTurf: The Wall That Can Buy You Out

Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A live pixel grid where people claim empty cells for $1 each, then risk losing them to anyone willing to pay at least double.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-24 issue.

Field notes

The site divides a shared grid into purchasable cells and blocks, with price determined by area for empty territory and by a two-times buyout rule for occupied territory. A 7×4 block therefore starts at $28, while existing owners receive no refund when displaced. The public leaderboard currently shows two $1 claims, and the activity feed records claims made five and fifteen hours earlier. The page reports $2 in total spend since launch.
