We want to take you on a journey. One that begins over 1000 years back in the age of Norse mythology. To do so, it is only fitting that we provide players with a unique overview of this mystical world — one complete with several experiences, from elements of collectible card games, tower defense, and a multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA). Primarily positioned as a tower rush video game, one winner will have the opportunity to take all. With many exciting rewards up for grabs, we provide players with the chance to go head to head to destroy the most opposing towers.

Apart from inflicting the most damage possible to an opponent’s towers, players must minimize the amount of damage they receive. Their Norse god warriors are equipped with unique sets of destructive powers balanced against a set recovery time. If a participant plays their cards right (yes, pun intended!), they may even be able to destroy the King’s Tower for an instantaneous win.

Joining the Battlefield

So, how do you, an enthusiastic team member, get started in a battle of your own? The answer is surprisingly simple. We invite players to collect a PolyGod GOD NFT from the Northern Germanic tribes of the 9th century AD, each representing a piece of Norse mythology, including Gods like Thor and Loki. These NFTs will exist in one of 10 divisions and within them, the NFTs will contain a unique set of powers, skills and special abilities correlated to their price points. Players will then need to stretch their strategic thinking as they look for opportunities to utilize each character’s abilities at the right time in the upcoming PVP PolyGod Game. In-game mythological characters will have a fixed life of four matches. After a death, lives immediately reset to zero. Upon reaching zero, players must recharge it with contacts, which can be acquired from us every 72 hours.

As users collect and upgrade their in-game characters, whether they are different Norse God, warrior, spell or defence, they improve their ability to beat their opponents and boost revenue. In addition to glory in the arena, battle rewards will be comprised of Trophies, XP and real money. Most importantly, players will slowly be able to take full command of the Norse God tribe and lead their team to larger and more substantial victories by participating in a number of multiplayer battles!

Defending Towers

As a tower defense game, players must participate in battles to defend their territories and other possessions. Each battle will take place over three minutes. If both players or teams have an equal number of crowns or none at all at the end of this time, the match will go into a two-minute overtime period, where destroying one opposing tower results in an instantaneous win. If the overtime period concludes, and still no towers are destroyed, a tiebreaker round will begin. All towers will rapidly lose health in the tiebreaker, and the tower with the least health is destroyed. If the players are so evenly matched that even the towers have the same health, a winner will be the one who makes the right call on a coin flip.

Players also have the opportunity to participate in either weekly or monthly competitions. Both are open to all participants, although they are capped at 16 players. After participating in three weekly tournaments, a player will be eligible to participate in a monthly tournament alongside 63 other competitors. With higher stakes in these tournaments comes more intense gameplay, and of course, the potential for larger rewards.

An Unrivaled Experience

As we continue to work towards our long-term vision, we can’t help but feel overwhelmed by all the support from our community to date. It is with your help that we are able to bring about a gaming experience that takes the best of NFT trading cards, tower defense strategy, and MOBA, that both entertains and creates unrivalled earning opportunities.
