CryptoPets Beta: So How Do You Play?
Itâs not about the size of the FAQ, itâs about what you do with itâŚ
Hey CryptoPets fans!
We finally sat down and wrote a helpful guide for you to figure out how to get your hard-earned money into our Ether wallets.đ
Head on to https://www.cryptopets.co and give it a try!
How to Play:
- Have a computer with internet
- Download the Chrome, FireFox, or Brave browser (or Tor, but only if you wanna be on a list). No⌠CryptoPets wonât run on Tor⌠but thanks for ruining the âjokeâ.
- Go to MetaMask.io and add an extension to your browser (Chrome | Mozilla FireFox)
- Follow the steps given by MetaMask to set up your âDigital Walletâ that allows you to access our blockchain-enabled application.
- Store your Seed Phase and Password somewhere safe because this is where your pets are stored. (or throw it into the digital wind, we donât care⌠we just canât help you get them back if you lost it â your call)
- Once your account is created, go to https://www.cryptopets.co/Home/
OK. Iâm IN. What now?
Some more directions! Wooh!
- Go to the âAdoption Centerâ to buy your first CryptoPet.
2. Click âAdoptâ and a MetaMask Notification window will popup or be in your MetaMask browser extension.
3. Submit the transaction on MetaMask to buy the pet. Note: Check your gas price before purchase: lower gas is cheaper, but you risk not having the transaction confirmed. It doesnât much matter in Testnet where everything is FREE.
4. If you donât have âTest Network Etherâ, click âBuy Etherâ and it will take you to a website to get some for FREE. (Note: This is literally the only time a statement like this will be true, just remember itâs not real ETH)
5. Once adopted, it will appear in your âMy Petsâ Tab. Note: Ethereum transactions take from 20â30 seconds (on average) to confirm.
6. Click the âLoginâ Tab and then Click the button that says âSign in with MetaMask.â You will be promoted with a MetaMask notification. Click âSign.â Note: If your Login fails, refresh your page and try signing in again.
7. Go to the âTo Battleâ tab and press âCreate gameâ if you want to make a new game or âFind Gameâ if your friend already has a game open.
8. Select a Pet, wait to be matched with another player (you will see a hash value appear when youâve matched: 0x5673e..), then click âReady.â
9. Battle!
Note: You can surrender if you end the game. If you forget to play your turn, the other player can âDeclare Victoryâ after a certain period of waiting time.
Here are some additional tips for the Beta from Feedback weâve already received:
Perhaps the battle gets stuck, for some reason, you can perform a âHard Refreshâ. Mac Users can do this with âCMD + SHIFT + Râ. Windows / Linux users can Hold down Ctrl and click the Reload button at the top of the window.
So there you have it! Everything you need to get started with the CryptoPets Beta. Obviously winning isnât as simple as logging in, but remember the golden rule:
If you canât beat âem, trade âem.
Now youâve got everything you need to become a CryptoPets Master, maybe now your dad will be proud of you.
With an uncomfortable handshake that obviously isnât compensating for anything,
