About Loot Survivor

Loot Survivor is a groundbreaking on-chain adventure game that introduces the “Play2Die” mechanic, challenging players to survive in a rogue-like dungeon crawler environment. The game is set within the expansive universe of Realms.World, a fantasy multiverse running on Starknet and Ohayo Dojo. Players must navigate endless, dynamically generated dungeons filled with beasts, traps, and, of course, loot. The ultimate goal is to stay alive, defeat as many enemies as possible, and climb the leaderboard.

Loot Survivor V1.5 is currently available, offering a fully on-chain, arcade-style experience. Players are not only battling for survival but also for a spot among the top three on the leaderboard, where real rewards await.

Reward Model

The game’s reward model is straightforward but lucrative for those who master the mechanics:

  • Top 3 Players: The highest-ranking players receive a share of the total $LORDS tokens invested in the game. This provides a tangible incentive to hone your skills and rise to the top.
  • Collectible Beasts: During gameplay, players may encounter 1:1 collectible beasts. These unique items can be traded with other players and will have additional utility in the upcoming sequel, Loot Survivor 2.

Testnet vs. Mainnet

Loot Survivor offers two different experiences depending on where you play:

  • Testnet: This version features instant transactions and no wait times between levels, making it perfect for practice. However, it does not offer $LORDS rewards or collectible beasts.
  • Mainnet: The mainnet version involves an average cost per game, which includes $3 in $LORDS and uses VRF (Verifiable Random Function). Here, players can earn $LORDS rewards and $lords rewards, Collectible Beast NFTs, and compete for a spot on the global leaderboard, also requires Starknet Account

Realms.World

Loot Survivor is part of the broader Realms.World universe, a fantasy multiverse of fully on-chain games designed to offer deep, immersive experiences on Starknet. The game is developed by Bibliotheca DAO, a studio dedicated to creating innovative and engaging blockchain games.
