DeshGame is a game project based on Abitrum
The reason for choosing to run on Arbitrum is because Arbitrum is an Optimistic Rollup scaling solution and Layer 2 ("L2") protocol that allows participants to settle their transactions away from L1, leading to much lower transaction fees.
While many L2s exist, Arbitrum was selected for the following reasons:
Significantly lower gas fees: On Arbitrum, transactions fees and gas are a fraction of the costs on L1. This is illustrated on L2Fees.info which contrasts the costs pertaining to transferring or swapping ETH and other tokens.

Security: Arbitrum has the right balance between speed and security.
