In a world where sweet and cute toys face the peril of human enslavement, the fate of these cherished companions lies in your hands. Join forces with a charismatic unicorn, embark on a daring mission, and become the hero who will save the world.

IQ Protocol is pleased to announce our partnership with Ponchiqs!

Ponchiqs

Welcome to Ponchiqs, a twisted wonderland where the line betweens cute & cuddly and crazy & chaotic is masterfully blurred! In this arena battle game, your favorite childhood toys — say, a teddy bear, a friendly robot, a plush pony — come to life. But the goal of these Ponchiqs’ is no friendly mission! Instead, they seek a delightfully deranged revenge on their cruel human owners, and find joy in fighting one another.

Thanks to AI technology, Ponchiqs constantly evolves and renews itself. Every battle is a unique adventure, packed with unexpected and adorably bizarre challenges as well as unrepeatable tactics. And no need to worry! You don’t have to face the challenge alone. Ponchiqs offers a host of in-game social features, allowing players to make connections with others and enjoy companionship in the battles they face.

A major appeal of Ponchiqs is the unique and creative design that has gone into making the game. Their team is dedicated to not only building an exciting and fun game, but one that makes a mark on your memory and imagination as well. In fact, we had the pleasure of talking with Ponchiqs’ CEO, Gökhan Gezici, on our The Next Big Stream series! Check out the conversation for more details and to see things like the characters and gameplay:

In Ponchiqs, players take on twin rolls. On the one hand, they can be toy designers, and on the other they can be Ponchiqs trainers. As a trainer, the game revolves around getting your Ponchiq tough, training them to their full potential and battling against other Ponchiqs or formidable foes. As a toy designer, the game involves putting together a one-of-a-kind toy, with unique traits, skills, and even a backstory. Together, these roles open a world of possibilities for exploration, battles, and storytelling. Paired with the in-game currency and ability to trade assets on a marketplace, the opportunities to play and earn expand as you go.

Best of all, Ponchiqs is free to play!

IQ x Ponchiqs

With each of the characters created in Ponchiqs being an NFT, much of the fun of the game is found in mixing and matching the characters with their world. We at IQ Protocol are proud to say that we provide the technology powering the marketplace for Ponchiqs. This means that players can rest assured that their borrowing and lending of Ponchiqs is not just easy, but totally risk- free and requires no collateral.

Wow! This is all risk- and collateral-free? How’s that possible?!

Importantly, the NFT marketplace on IQ Protocol is risk-free. Typical modes of lending an asset puts the lender at risk, say, if the borrower loses hold of the asset (for whatever reason). With IQ Protocol, such risks are not a concern. Instead of giving the original asset to the borrower, IQ Protocol mints an expirable version of the NFT (which contains all of the unique features of the original). This NFT is then given to the borrower. This guarantees that the original NFT is always safe and can be returned to the owner after the agreed-upon rental contract has expired. Now, players can rest easy renting out their most valuable items.
