Game Partners Feature: BreederDAO Breaks Boundaries with Castle Crush

3 min readJun 20, 2022

BreederDAO is proud to announce its partnership with Castle Crush, a free-to-play Web2 strategy card game that has expanded into Web3 gaming by launching on the Avalanche network.

Destroying Goals

Castle Crush is a mobile free-to-play real-time strategy (RTS) game where you have to try to destroy your opponent’s castle using decks of powerful spells and legendary monsters while also stopping the enemy from destroying your own. Players engage in battles that typically last between 1 to 3 minutes and end with the destruction of a player’s castle.

Since its launch in 2016, the game has had over 75 million lifetime downloads and still boasts of an extensive player base of over 200k daily active players. Players that engage with the blockchain layer will coexist with the existing player community, making Castle Crush one of the first ever to seamlessly integrate a blockchain layer onto an existing mobile game.

Castle Crushing into Web3

Castle Crush is developed by Wildlife, one of the 10 largest mobile gaming companies in the world, engaging billions around the globe. They currently have over 2 billion downloads across its portfolio of 60+ game titles.

Wildlife’s aim in adding a blockchain layer through the integration of NFTs and other Web3 features was to provide more power and value to the players via ownership of the game assets. Seeing as they are a leading game developer in the Web2 space, this will present itself as a great bridge for traditional gamers to be exposed and onboarded into the blockchain space.

In the current free-to-play model, all investments into the game results in value that will only exist within a closed ecosystem. Wildlife is opening up the game economy and aligning economic incentives with their player base by rewarding them with the value created in the game.

Ascension Crystals ($ACS) is a new currency in Castle Crush that players can earn daily by obtaining Ascension Points (AP) through daily in-game rewards, seasonal rewards, other in-game activities like tournaments and by selling their NFTs. $ACS will be spent by players to mint and upgrade cards, as well as to participate in in-game events.

Renz Chong, CEO of BreederDAO had the following to say about Castle Crush:

“We look forward to our journey with Castle Crush together with one of the biggest names in the gaming industry. It is quintessential that we continue to build and provide value to the evolutionary space of P2E, and we believe that Castle Crush is able to rise up to that goal. We are excited to witness how Wildlife’s team of exceptional talent will pivot into the blockchain gaming space and maintain its success as an industry leader.”

Here’s what Joao Beraldo, Web3 BD Lead of Wildlife Studios had to say about the partnership:

“We’re super excited about our strategic partnership with BreederDAO as one of the leading Web3 native organizations in the gaming space, helping us explore the new possibilities this medium unlocks for the future of the gaming industry!”
