Creating a Discord server is easy; however, maintaining its momentum is harder. One way to keep the spirits up and engagement high is to add gaming bots to your Discord server. It’s a good way to pass time, bond with community members, and stay connected.
1. Wordle
Wordle is all the rage these days – so much so that NYT decided it was a great idea to buy it. It’s a web-based word game where you get one new five-letter word every day. You get six tries to guess it, and the difficulty level increases each time.
The Wordle gaming bot brings the game to your server. In the case of multiplayer, you will need to enter the name of the user you want to play Wordle with. You cannot solve more than one Wordle a day, and if you run out of chances, it’s game over for that day!
2. Minesweeper Bot
I remember playing Minecraft on my rusty old Windows computer two decades ago, and so do many of you, I am sure. Minesweeper Bot is a Discord bot that will let you relive the old days.
You can choose the height and width of the mine, number of mines, and choose to play with your server friends using commands. Don’t like numbers? Enable flag mode instead. If you have some friends who would like to join you the game, there’s an option to start a tournament!
3. Virtual Fisher
The Virtual Fisher Discord gaming bot will let you fish from the comfort of your home. You don’t have to rent a boat and find a good spot in the lake. Just use your digital fishing rods, bait, and a boat and see what you can catch.
You can sell your day’s catch for in-game currency, which can then be used to upgrade your equipment. Once you’ve played for some time, the leaderboard will let you know how well you are doing against the competition.
4. Trivia Bot
Don’t we all love a little trivia on our favorite topics – interesting facts that makes us ponder deeper? Trivia Bot will add a trivia question-answer gaming bot to your Discord server.
You can play true/false, multiple choice, or time limit competitions. Trivia Bot is easy to use: simply select one of the answers or press the red button to end the game. The only con is no option to choose a subject or topic. Questions can be from anything under the sun.
5. Soccer Guru
Are you a soccer fan? Who isn’t? While there is still no way to play soccer inside a Discord server, you can follow live matches around the world in real time from inside your favorite Discord server with the Soccer Guru bot.
You can build your own XI team and track how you are doing as a manager. It supports a virtual economy system. Also, this practice will keep your skills sharp if you are into betting.
6. Naruto Botto
Fan of Naruto? The Naruto Botto gaming bot for Discord will let you collect more than 200 characters in the game. You can also buy gears and build your own dream team fighters.
consider joining the official Naruto server: an excellent way to track expenses, follow news, participate in in-game giveaways, and view some interesting stats.
7. UltimateRPG
This is a text-based RPG game, where your job is to go on quests and loot whatever you can. On each loot, you will get objectives/missions and earn rewards based on performance. There are dungeons to explore with your friends, if someone is keen and brave enough.
Trade extra items for things that you may need later on your journey. UltimateRPG is a fun game and can get addicting, especially if you have friends and build clans.
8. TacoShack
Many have seen tower defense games where you build an island, towers, or castle, then run the economy. TacoShack is similar: build a shack, then decorate it, hire employees, create and edit the menu, and so on. You are the owner or manager of the shack and its small economy. There is a lot of money to be made and franchises to open.
The community is very active, and there are a number of commands to choose from. TacoShack is a popular Discord gaming bot, and the developer is pretty active with new updates being pushed frequently.
9. Cricket Guru
Cricket is a gentleman’s game. With the Cricket Guru, you will build your team, buy/sell players, claim rewards, and so on. You are the team manager, and your job is to manage the team while keeping it healthy and profitable.
While the original game of cricket is much too complicated, the developer has tried to keep things simple here. Join the official Discord server to learn more and find interesting tips and players to trade against.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can Discord bots be harmful?
Some Discord bots may ask for too many permissions and try and collect data, like contacts, files, etc., even when they don’t need them. Others may try and hack or spam you with unsolicited ads. Be careful and do your due diligence before installation.
2. Who can add a Discord bot to a server?
Only people who have administrative or “Manage Server” permissions on the server can invite a bot. If you don’t have either of these roles, you won’t be able to add bots. If you have created the server, then you are the admin and can invite any bot.
3. Can I create my own Discord bot?
Yes. You’ll need to have some programming skills, though, and a little patience. But if you’re willing to try, we have a guide for you that teaches you how to create your first Discord bot.
