The Kryptoria ecosystem is one of the most sophisticated the space has seen so far. An immersive real time strategy (RTS) game with a ready-built world in Unity. Innovative tech providing true ownership of in-game assets. An amazing community. This article will introduce you to the basics of Kryptoria, the benefits of becoming a holder, and how to enter the ecosystem.
As a team and project we don’t follow. We carve our own path. Before we begin, there are two important things to understand about Kryptoria NFTs, two innovations that set them apart and provide the foundations for an ecosystem like no other.
- They are dynamic. Virtually any characteristic of a Kryptoria NFT can be updated, post-mint, for marginal gas.
- They represent ownership of more than a piece of digital art. They are your in-game assets within the world of Kryptoria, our metaverse, and your share in a wider commercial ecosystem.
Bear this in mind as we introduce you to:
The most immersive Web3 experience yet
BECOME PART OF AN ENGAGED AND SOPHISTICATED COMMUNITY
The true power of Web3 is its ability to bring together amazing communities. To democratise ownership and decentralise control of projects. Since our launch in late August 2022, Kryptoria has built a community of thousands of holders. Whether united by a lifelong love of gaming and lore, or simply wanting a fun and accepting space to spend time with one another, our community is one of our greatest strengths. Their creativity and enthusiasm never fails to amaze. It’s why we launched our market-first Citizens Reward Program, an entirely optional scheme which rewards holder evangelism online with NFTs, irl benefits, and chances to work with the creative team more closely.
JOIN THE TEAM ON A JOURNEY TO BUILD THE #1 REAL TIME STRATEGY (RTS) GAME USING BLOCKCHAIN
In Kryptoria, team and community build hand in hand. Becoming a holder will allow you to have your say in the ongoing process of IP and game creation. To shape the direction of this project as we iterate together. Whether through community votes on game mechanics or via story telling competitions that are written into our ongoing animated series, Kryptoria is a community-first project. The team, from Founders to developers and graphic artists, is accountable to the community, not the other way around. And with our community of sophisticated and enthusiastic holders, we wouldn’t have it any other way.
PLAY AN IMMERSIVE RTS GAME
With deep lore and complex mechanics, the world of Kryptoria is set in a futuristic sci-fi world where the people of Web3 have escaped the totalitarian Web2 forces of the Fed into a parallel land of unimaginable possibilities. Kryptoria is informed by all the greats of the sci fi genre from Halo to Mass Effect and Star Wars. With gameplay inspired by the likes of Civilisation and Age of Empires, players start off with 3 in-game assets, 1 from each of our collections. Alpha Citizens, Land and Weapons. Holding all 3 will generate a number of unique in-game resources. Players are encouraged to trade, fight for and spend these resources, in order to dynamically upgrade their NFTs. Complete with factions, ranks and gorgeous UX, the Beta version rolls out in Q4 2022 and raises the bar in the space. It’s just the first iteration of what will become a persistent world and metaverse. Kryptoria is not competing with existing NFT or P2E games. As we innovate and try to lead in everything we do, the project will become a subcomponent of Addlandia Labs, our game studio leveraging the power of blockchain.
OWN YOUR IN-GAME ASSETS
Owning in-game assets and playing the game will earn you resources. Holding a Kryptoria NFT means ownership not just of that unique piece of art, but of a piece of the virtual world itself, whether that be a character (your Alpha Citizen), land or weapons. In the same way that inalienable property rights are a cornerstone of wealth generation irl, true ownership is the key to being able to develop and grow your virtual assets. This ownership is made possible through blockchain. No longer will video game players have to pay for the privilege of using in-game assets (think weapons, skins or other equipment) whilst gaining nothing from the time spent using them. For us, this represents a chance to flip gaming on its head. To move from the current state of high game fees and the requirement to pay for commoditised fun. Ownership of an in-game asset is the chance to buy your share of a virtual world, which you can then spend time developing and improving. NFTs and GameFi have huge applications here — buy, sell, stake, loan or upgrade your assets, They’re yours, inalienably and forever.
UPGRADE YOUR NFTS
Use resources earned in game to upgrade your NFTs. Kryptoria aims to be industry-leading in everything we do and our dNFT innovation allows holders to upgrade virtually any characteristic of their NFTs, for minimal gas. With trait collections dropping as part of ongoing collaborations with Web2 brands and other NFT projects, you’ll have access to a marketplace of hot new traits to kit your Alpha Citizen out with.
CURATE YOUR DIGITAL IDENTITY
Your Alpha Citizen won’t just be your PFP at the time you buy it, but forever. Changed your hair? Take your Citizen for a trim. Envious of that slick new armour your friend has? Get some that’s even stronger. Fancy a festive outfit to wear in Kryptoria? Santa’s coming into town. Fashion in the metaverse never looked so good. As you change your traits, the old ones are burned, altering your NFT’s in-game performance, rarity and, thus, value.
Own part of a sophisticated ecosystem
In a few months and with seed investment only, the team has already built a world in Unity, the engine that powers 50% of the world’s games and 60% of its VR content. From the burning sands of the Solana Desert to the sapphire waters of the Broken Sea, it reflects the project’s unique lore and will be the foundation for the game. As it is iterated into a full-blown metaverse, it will become a significant asset, used to connect the ecosystem to the wider Web2 and Web3 spaces. By 2030, the value of the metaverse is expected to reach c. $5 trillion dollars, with use cases spanning sectors from e-commerce to education and entertainment. Kryptoria is early and as the team iterates, it will:
- Provide web2 brands the chance to connect with audiences in Web3 and add their collections to our traits marketplace. This will provide holders with access to irl collections, discounts and other tangible benefits.
- Create IP to provide the foundation for future multimedia rights deals
- Incubate early-stage Web3 companies and bridge Web2 businesses looking to move into the space.
All of these avenues will form the backbone of a sophisticated ecosystem of interconnected parts, where ownership is decentralised and control is democratised. The community of holders will be rewarded proportionally, all through the power of blockchain.
How to enter the ecosystem
BUY AND HOLD AT LEAST ONE ALPHA CITIZEN, LAND AND WEAPON
In the two months since Kryptoria’s launch, the project has minted 3 collections of 10,000 NFTs.
- Alpha Citizens (our Genesis collection, they are the inhabitants of Kryptoria and have over 700 unique trait distributed among them).
- Land (5 types, matching up perfectly to the 10,000 tiles that the Unity game world is divided into).
- Weapons (as you wage war in Kryptoria, you’ll have ownership and use of countless instruments of destruction, across 8 classes… for now 👀).
To enter the ecosystem and play the game, you’ll first have to hold at least 1 of each, all in the same wallet. These NFTs represent your in-game assets. A Citizen with which to explore the world. A piece of that world to own and cultivate. Weapons for your Citizen to wage bloody war with and expand your empire. Traits, rarities, types and classes all affect gameplay, and whether you can adapt your game strategy to suit your holdings might decide your fate in the battles to come. All collections are available on OpenSea, today.
STAKE YOUR NFTs
Go to kryptoria.io and connect your wallet. Using our seamless UI, you’ll be able to stake your NFTs into the ecosystem, assign the Citizens, Land and Weapons (1:1:1) to each other and begin generating resources with them. Doing so will start your staking streak and increase your chances of winning additional weapons and land. It’s all part of our ongoing commitment to transfer control of Kryptoria assets from the team, into the hands of the community. With innovation one of our guiding principles, the team decided to roll out a space-leading soft-staking mechanism. Your Kryptoria NFTs will never leave your wallet, they’ll only interact with the project smart contract. We believe control of digital assets should remain with holders, always. Increased security, reduced gas, better UX. The Kryptoria way.
BEGIN TO GENERATE RESOURCES BY PLAYING OR HOLDING
Once staked, holders will begin to generate resources which are then used in-game. While passively holding will still accrue you resources (we understand that people live busy lives and would never dictate what they do with their time), holders who choose to dive into the war raging in Kryptoria will be rewarded with more resources, faster, and have more access to all the rare trait upgrades, prizes and tangible benefits that follow.
The Kryptoria game and wider ecosystem is one of the most sophisticated the space has seen thus far. It utilises the best of blockchain to distribute ownership of, and influence in, an innovative long-term business. We can’t wait for you to become part of our community and join us on the journey.
