The Play and Earn Mechanics of the Blockchain Game Hunters On-Chain
How to earn & have fun playing the first game on BoomLand
Play and Earn is the ethos behind the first blockchain game ‘Hunters On-Chain’ from the BoomLand platform. Let’s find out about the P&E mechanics of this new game.
The Buzz Behind Play and Earn
Play and Earn literally means players can enjoy playing games while earning crypto assets.
Hunters On-Chain
In Hunters On-Chain players are hunters battling a variety of monsters and other hunters while collecting a myriad of treasures. It is a ‘player-owned economy’ with its own Marketplace and part of a self-sustaining blockchain economy where players and developers have a say in how the platform evolves. Players are able to earn tokens, buy, sell and lend NFTs, craft Items and summon new Heroes.
Play and Earn is Passion Income
The Hunters On-Chain team call it ‘Passion Income’ because players are remunerated for their commitment to playing high quality blockchain games and being part of the online community.
How to Earn in Hunters On-Chain
Both gamers and developers can earn BoomLand’s token, known as $BOOM and $BGEM, in return for playing and creating content. They can also sell and exchange NFTs on this safe and secure virtual platform.
The governance token $BOOM is the most valuable resource in the game and is designed to capture the overall value of the ecosystem. $BOOM token holders will be able to receive some of the most lucrative benefits in the ecosystem (boost staking APY, access in restricted areas, eligibility to premium rewards, etc).
The in-game currency of BoomLand is the $BGEM token. This is the main reward that players will receive after completing games; this currency is crucial to purchasing items in the shop.
Ways to Use $BOOM & $BGEM
Trade and Hunt
You can purchase Hunt Boxes, using $BGEM tokens, which contain a selection of crypto-assets such as Hero Shards, $BGEM tokens, Items, and even new Hunters. You can then trade all of these with other players. The second way is to participate in regular hunts or seasonal events for both $BGEM and $BOOM tokens.
Summoning Hunters
Summoning is where players collect or trade equipment to summon & trade newly minted Hunters in the Marketplace. Each Hunter is a unique and playable NFT. Players use 5 specific NFTs called ‘Equipment’ and $BOOM tokens to manifest a new Hunter using different recipes. You also have to lock down two of your existing hunters to kick off the summoning process. The rarer the Items used in the recipe, the rarer the Hunter summoned.
Borrowing & Lending Hunters
Lending other players Hunters enables them to reduce the barrier to entry for low budget players, as well as a fantastic passive income generator for the more seasoned ones. Owners set their own terms between a combination of revenue sharing generated by the hunter, and a fixed daily fee. Borrowing and lending is a vital part of the Play and Earn, player-owned ecosystem of BoomLand.
Stake: Staking allows players to lock their token in-game and earn an associated variable Annual Profit Yield (APY). This mechanism will incentivise players to organically reduce the total circulating supply of tokens, whilst providing a huge in-game benefit to the players that do it.
Boom Power
This is a tool that will allocate a value for all the assets a player owns in BoomLand. Increasing your Boom Power level will be crucial to unlock further benefits in the games.
Boom Power will be the same across ALL the games within the BoomLand ecosystem. So if you gather massive Boom Power in Hunters On-Chain, you will be using the same Boom Power on all future games of BoomLand for a massive head start!
The Gameplay Modes
You can earn tokens in Special Events and Mini games such as Tower Defense, Races and Survival mode. But the main gameplay modes are:
Hunt: This is a co-op game of 4 hunters battling in the arena to be the winner with the number of $BGEM earned linked to your final score.
Boss Hunt: 4 hunters battle fiercer and fiercer foes, finally facing the end of level boss. You earn $BGEMs, NFT Equipment and Artifacts based on your final ranking.
Co-Op: Two players are sworn to protect the king in a survival game with wave upon wave of enemies. How long you survive determines how much $BGEM you make.
Duel: One on one fight in a two out of three match, the victor takes all the $BOOM and $BGEM.
Bounty Hunter: Head to head you fight it out with 9 others in battle royale and the winner takes all from the pool of $BGEM and $BOOM pool.
Hunt Boxes and $BGEM
With $BGEMs you can buy Hunt Boxes at different levels of rarity. Those boxes contain a random selection of crypto assets such as $BGEM, Hunter Shards, Equipment, Artifacts and rarely a new Hunter. Pricing is determined by the box rarity level.
