What Are AI Telegram Gaming Bots?
Telegram gaming bots are like mini games built into your chat. Instead of downloading a full app or opening a website, users can play games directly inside Telegram by interacting with a bot. These bots guide you through the gameplay using text, images and buttons, right inside the chat window.
