2. Exploration and Simulation: Diverse and Immersive Experiences

The Futuverse™ offers highly detailed digital twins of extreme environments, such as Mars, the Moon, floating ocean cities, and desert regions. These environments are crafted using advanced graphics and scientifically accurate simulations to provide players with a realistic understanding of the challenges and opportunities of living in these environments. Players can explore these worlds through Virtual Reality, PC workstations, or direct access on the web, all realized in full 3D so they experience a realistic understanding of the challenges and opportunities of living in these environments and devise strategies to overcome these obstacles.

Creating a human settlement from scratch requires generating everything from energy to materials to supply chains. The Futuverse defines a Power Unit™ (PU) as the unit of energy required per person to exist in the environment. Each extreme environment has different resources and hazards, resulting in varying daily consumption of Power Units. Each extreme environment has different resources and hazards, so each world inside the Futuverse™ has a different monthly consumption of Power Units. Here are the requirements of PU per month in each of the Futuverse worlds (“Minimum World PU Requirement”). PU can be earned through various in-game activities, including missions, daily rewards, resource management, and marketplace participation.

The Futuverse™ uses scientifically accurate simulations to immerse players in the complexities of life in extreme conditions. Players must manage environmental hazards, such as radiation and limited resources, while developing sustainable living strategies. The decisions made by players directly impact the sustainability and success of their virtual communities. For example, on Mars, players must shield habitats from electromagnetic storms and manage resources like food, water, and oxygen to ensure survival.

To produce various items and ensure survival, players consume different resources. Here is a summary of the key resources:

Exploring extreme environments presents a range of significant hazards. These dangers require appropriate protective measures for explorers and their equipment, including habitats and communication systems. Some common environmental hazards include:

  • Electromagnetic Storms: Solar winds or electromagnetic storms can destroy unprotected biological tissue and disrupt radio communications. Protective measures include shielding infrastructure with metal walls or burying them beneath a thick layer of regolith.
  • Fire: Fires in enclosed spaces like habitats or vehicles can rapidly consume oxygen and transform breathable air into toxic fumes. Containment and sealing off affected areas are critical for safety.
  • Dust Storms: Dust storms can reduce visibility, damage equipment, and impede solar energy collection. Shielding and robust engineering designs can mitigate these effects.
  • Radiation Exposure: Continuous monitoring and the use of radiation-proof habitats and clothing are essential to protect against cosmic rays and unshielded nuclear reactors.
  • Pressure Variations: Maintaining structural integrity of habitats is crucial to prevent catastrophic depressurization. Systems must also prevent dangerous overpressurization.
  • Oxygen Deprivation: Quick solutions like moving to a hermetically sealed environment or utilizing emergency oxygen supplies are necessary in cases of structural damage or equipment failure.
  • Temperature Extremes: Managing extreme heat or cold is essential, particularly on planets like Mars or in space. Insulation, climate control systems, and protective clothing are vital.
  • Toxic Atmospheres: Some environments may have atmospheres that are not breathable or contain toxic gases. Continuous air quality monitoring and filtration systems are required.
  • Microgravity Effects: In space or on low-gravity planets, players must adapt to the challenges of microgravity, such as muscle atrophy and fluid redistribution. Specialized exercise equipment and habitats are needed.



The simulation features various types of buildings essential for survival and development:

  • Living Quarters: Connected with Power Stations and Oxygen Generators, providing a safe living space with backup generators.
  • Communal Areas: Spaces for social interactions, community building, trade, and daily life.
  • Airlocks: Small hermetic rooms ensuring safe entry and exit from facilities without losing air.
  • Hazard Labs: Specialized science facilities for conducting experiments and warning about environmental hazards.
  • Corridors: Hermetic spaces providing communication and movement between buildings.
  • Communication Stations: Ensure radio communication with other colonies and Earth.
  • Laboratories: Research artifacts and other scientific tasks.

Inside a Futuverse world, traveling can be conducted on foot for shorter distances or with specialized, hermetic vehicles for longer distances. To simulate the revealing of unknown spaces, the “Fog of the Unknown” feature is introduced (in other systems is also called Fog of war). This feature covers unexplored terrain, which is revealed as players explore.

Traveling between worlds requires significant energy, so only users with large amounts of Power Units (PU) can travel. Mars, being the most complex environment requiring the largest amount of Power Units, offers pioneers higher opportunities to travel to future worlds and enjoy the wealth of being a pioneer in new virtual worlds as they will have higher opportunities to travel to future worlds.

3. Community Dynamics: Building a Collaborative Society

The Futuverse™ fosters a rich and engaging community dynamic, essential for building a collaborative society. This section delves into the various aspects that promote community involvement, governance, social interactions, and the importance of team-based missions.

The user structure within the Futuverse is divided into three types of memberships, each with different privileges and levels of participation:

  • Citizens: Users with the most privileges, including ownership of virtual real estate and governance participation.
  • Explorers: Users who engage deeply with the platform and can create teams (Brigades) and digital content for the community.
  • Tourists: Casual users who explore and learn but do not participate in governance or ownership.

Competition through Collaboration is critical for innovation, especially in extreme environments. Futuverse aims to be a simulation at a large scale of potential social conflict and unrest that we may experience in the near future. The need for Power Units (PU) to survive, or thrive, and the harsh conditions that demand a high usage of PU will simulate how large amounts of individuals and groups behave under such high-pressure conditions. As living in Extreme Environments is extremely dangerous, players need to cooperate to survive, and they organize themselves around teams, called Brigades.

Strategic planning and collaboration are crucial elements of the Futuverse gameplay. Missions and tasks require players to think critically, make tactical decisions, and work together to achieve common goals. This not only challenges the players but also fosters a sense of community and teamwork. Additionally, users must work together to complete objectives, build self-sufficient settlements, and overcome challenges. This collaborative approach is integral to the survival and success of communities in extreme environments.

The game includes elements that mimic social dynamics, such as governance, decision-making, and conflict resolution, providing players with a deeper understanding of societal structures. The ecosystem also provides events, competitions, and social gatherings for users to connect, collaborate, and form teams.

In Futuverse, governance is directly managed by community involvement. Through community voting, user actively participate in decision-making processes. Additionally, players help develop community rules and regulations, creating a regulated environment where roles and governance power are aligned with their membership status. This active participation allows users to significantly shape the direction and evolution of Futuverse, ensuring it reflects the community’s preferences and ideals.

Brigades are a fundamental feature of the Futuverse simulation, serving as social organizations that group players into teams of 1 to 10 individuals. To raise a new Brigade, a player needs an Ecosystem ID, which allows them to start a team, choose a Brigade name, logo, color, and a short description. All users that are Citizens or Explorers have an ID so they could start a Brigade if they chose to do so, or they can join a Brigade founded by someone else. The player who raises the Brigade begins as its Founder and has the authority to manage the team.

Brigade Formation and Structure:

While it is not necessary for a Brigade to have more than one member, the economics of the rewards and mission complexity encourage to form teams. If a Brigade has more than one user, an internal structure is allowed. and Each Brigade has a hierarchy of ranks with specific roles and responsibilities:

  • Founder: The player who creates the Brigade, with full authority to manage it, including inviting new members, promoting or demoting ranks, and assigning missions. Founders can also set taxes for Brigade members and send messages to the entire Brigade.
  • Strategist: A critical member for planning and tactics. Earns a portion of Brigade PU rewards, lower than the Founder. Strategists participate in voting for the promotion of Coordinators and Technicians but cannot participate in voting to promote another Strategist.
  • Coordinator: Earns a portion of Brigade PU rewards, lower than the Strategist. The Coordinator/s participate in voting for the promotion process of Technicians but cannot participate in voting to promote another Coordinator.
  • Technician: The lowest rank, earning the least amount of Brigade PU rewards.

Members of a Brigade can move to another Brigade once a month, allowing for flexibility and reorganization as needed. A player can leave voluntarily, which encourages leadership from the Founder to guarantee that members see value in staying as part of the Brigade. Additionally, a player can be kicked from a Brigade by a majority vote of members of higher rank. Finding a new Brigade is facilitated by a Brigade roster, which allows all Brigades that need specialty members to announce themselves. A player that leaves a Brigade keeps all the Brigade’s benefits for seven days, but if during this period the player has not joined a new Brigade, the player will lose the benefits granted by their former Brigade. The skills and education of the players will be critical to join and attract valuable Brigades.

Brigade Founders can impose taxes on members, which are distributed among higher-ranking members. The Founder also needs to pay taxes to the ecosystem to keep the Brigade active, incentivizing successful leadership. These PU taxes fund Brigade buildings and other collective resources. The taxes are gathered in two ways:

  • From all income of Brigade members (from 1 to 10%).
  • Part of the Brigade mission rewards (from 5 to 25%).

Brigade Competition and Rewards

Brigades compete against each other and AI to earn rewards, primarily in the form of Power Units (PU). The best-performing Brigades receive significant rewards, while lower-ranked Brigades earn less. Only the top 5 Brigades in each batch (maximum of 10 Brigades) receive substantial rewards, with the top position’s prize being enough to sustain a Brigade of ten members for several months.

The distribution of Brigade PU rewards is also based on the type of membership of a player, which can be a Citizen, Explorer, or Tourist. As a general comparison, if the three members have the same role in the same Brigade, a Citizen earns twice the PU of a Tourist, and an Explorer earns 1.5 times the PU of a Tourist. In summary, the rewards distributed to a player from team-oriented missions vary depending on their membership, their role, and the taxes that the Founder of their Brigade imposes on its members.

Brigade Building and Resource Management

In the early stages of gameplay, Brigades focus on constructing buildings, a profitable activity for all Brigades. Initially, the differences in rewards are less pronounced as the infrastructure of the settlement is established. However, after approximately two years, building productivity stops, and Brigades must shift their focus to more competitive missions among them as the primary source of PUs. This shift encourages ongoing engagement and adaptation to changing gameplay dynamics.

Regular events and competitions are integral to the Futuverse community, promoting engagement and fostering a sense of achievement. The events are diverse and range from Scientific challenges, engineering competitions, and creative design contests encourage players to apply their skills and knowledge in innovative ways.

Additionally, the platform hosts regular events and competitions that challenge players to apply their skills and knowledge in new and exciting ways. These events range from scientific challenges to engineering competitions and creative design contests. Moreover, players compete for top spots on leaderboards, earning rewards and recognition. This competitive aspect adds excitement and motivation, driving continuous improvement and engagement.

Given the importance of education in the Futuverse, formal trainings by other peers or third-party educational organizations related to extreme environments, sustainability, survival, and space fields will provide PU rewards. These certifications add a layer of credibility and real-world applicability to the skills acquired in the Futuverse Ecosystem.

6. Rewards, Incentives, and Resources

Rewards in Futuverse are designed to incentivize participation, collaboration, and skill development. Players earn various rewards based on their performance in missions and objectives.
  • Power Units (PU): The primary in-game currency, earned through completing missions, daily prizes, and trading.
  • Futuro Tokens: Digital fungible tokens that facilitate broader economic activities within the ecosystem. Players earn Futuro Tokens through, staking, and other activities. Users can also convert any surplus of PU to Futuros.
  • Loot and Resources: Players gather resources like food, oxygen, minerals, electronic parts, and advanced materials during missions. These resources are essential for survival, building, and crafting.
  • Blueprints: Obtained as mission rewards or loot, blueprints are used to construct items and buildings, adding depth to the crafting system.
  • NFT Items: Collectibles and consumables that players can trade or use for specific boosts within the game.
  • Certifications: certifications are a critical aspect of the rewards in the Gameplay as the are linked to the skills and also they provide validation of knowledge for real-world applications.
Each player has a diversity of opportunities to earn and accumulate digital wealth inside the Futuverse Ecosystem:
  • Earnings and Surplus: Any surplus PUs (earned minus the “Minimum World PU Requirement”) at the end of each month will carry over, enhancing the player’s lifestyle within the digital world.
  • Mission Participation: Daily involvement in all MPPs ensures that all players can meet their monthly PU needs, regardless of their Brigade’s performance in competitive missions. This supports solo players who positively contribute to the community while encouraging teamwork and competition through Brigades.
  • Specialization and Opportunities: Earning specialized certificates through the Futuverse Training center opens doors to more competitive Brigades seeking specific skills. With a cap of 10 members per Brigade, strategic team composition and skill diversity are essential for maximizing success and rewards. As the highest rewards in the Futuverse are associated with the group competitions, such as MPS and MPN Mission, education becomes a critical aspect to accumulate PU (and their related Futuros) in the ecosystem.
Futuverse economy proposes an incentive mechanism to favor the development of the Community. To promote the formation of Brigades, token staking is available for members of Brigades only. Through this mechanism, users deposit Futuros to freeze their use and, in return, receive interest rates. Offering this is beneficial for Futuros to be stable and for planning the remuneration rates to be set in advance with specific amounts and deadlines. The fund generated from these transactions will be used for multiple purposes, including:
  • Common Fund (Treasury): The use of this fund is subject to player’s vote and can be used for multiple purposes.
  • Allocation to Treasury and Players: Part of the percentage is allocated to the Treasury and another percentage to players.
  • Burning: Part of the percentage is removed from circulation (burned), economically appreciating Futuro.

In Futuverse, maintaining a sufficient level of Power Units (PUs) is crucial for sustaining your virtual existence. Each world has a “Minimum World PU Requirement” that players must meet for full functionality.

Players earn Power Units (PUs) through various in-game and out-game activities and can accumulate surplus PUs for future needs. If a player’s accumulated PUs fall below this threshold, their avatar will get into a “hibernation,” temporarily losing access to the full advantages of ecosystem. However, resuscitation with full access is possible through various means, allowing players to regain their place in the game. Additionally, players do not lose their digital assets upon the “hibernation” of their avatars and can use these assets to facilitate their resuscitation.

When a player’s accumulated PUs fall below the required threshold, their avatar enters a “Hibernation” state. In this state, players retain basic interaction with the environment but with limited functionality. Players can still participate in certain activities and interact with their surroundings, but advanced features and full gameplay capabilities are restricted. Players will receive ample warnings when their PU levels are approaching the critical threshold. This gives them time to replenish resources and avoid entering the low power state.

Below is a detailed breakdown of the resuscitation process and alternatives to regain access to the complete Futuverse Ecosystem:

To regain full functionality and exit the hibernation state, players must acquire enough Power Units to meet 1.1 times the “Minimum World PU Requirement.” This can be done through several methods:

  1. Trading: Trading skills, NFTs, or other digital assets with other players in the Marketplace to earn Power Units.
  2. Marketplace Purchase: Using Futuros to buy the necessary Power Units from the marketplace.
  3. Community Support Programs: Players can request help from their Brigade, with Brigades pooling resources to help resuscitate a fallen member, fostering teamwork and community support. Additionally, a community fund can be established where players donate excess PUs, and players in need can apply for assistance from this fund.
  4. Quest for Resuscitation: Special missions or quests specifically designed for avatars who have hibernated can be introduced. These missions could be challenging but offer a way to earn the required PUs without monetary expenditure. Periodic events that allow players to participate and earn enough PUs to revive their avatars can also be community-driven or tied to in-game lore.
  5. Knowledge-Based Challenges: Players can complete knowledge-based challenges or mini-games that reward them with PUs. These challenges will vary in difficulty and type, catering to different player strengths. Futuverse ’s Edutainment Quizzes also reward players with PUs upon successful completion.
  6. Time-Based Recovery: Players can receive small amounts of PUs daily for logging in and participating in regular activities. Over time, these bonuses can accumulate to meet the resuscitation requirement. Through gameplay, players can earn tokens that can be redeemed after a cooldown period to revive their avatars.
  7. Social Contributions: Players can contribute to community projects or assist other players with tasks to earn PUs. This includes mentoring new players, participating in community events, or contributing to communal goals. Volunteer programs where players can offer their time or skills to help others in exchange for PUs is another option.
  8. In-Game Advertisements: Players can watch in-game advertisements, participate in sponsored events, and complete third-party surveys to earn PUs. While this is a totally optional feature for those that do not want to engage with ads, opting in for these ads provides additional PU.
  9. Achievements and Milestones: Players can earn emergency Resuscitation PUs when completing certain in-game achievements or reaching milestones.
  10. Futuverse Learning Certifications: Learning certifications in the Futuverse that do not require direct access to the 3D environment will be associated with Power Units that can be used to access the Ecosystem if needed or be used as considered by the player.

All new users are provided with free Power Units to familiarize themselves with the ecosystem without the need to spend any Futuros or fiat currency.

To further enhance engagement, Futuverse offers a system of daily loyalty prizes and the Season Pass, also called Futuverse Pass:
  • Daily Loyalty Prizes: Registered users receive daily prizes through a 14-day cycle as a loyalty bonus. The prizes include small amounts of in-game currency (PU) and random NFT items of different grades. Players must log in consecutively to progress through the prize tiers; missing a day resets the chain.
DAILY PRIZE SEASON PASS
1 PU 1 Futuro; 1 PU
2 PU 2 Futuro; 2 PU
Random NFT item of common grade 2 x Random NFT item of common grade

Note: These samples are specific to the first Futuverse™ world: Onteco™ Mars. Each world within the Futuverse™ will have a proportional distribution of Power Units (PU) based on its Minimum World PU Requirement. The Season Pass (Futuverse Pass) offers players more valuable daily prizes compared to the regular daily rewards.

Futuverse Pass grants players with noticeable bonus content
Loot is a significant economic driver for players within the Futuverse, categorized into consumables and collectibles. Distribution of Loot
  • Consumables: These items can be purchased in the Game Store or obtained throughout gameplay. Consumables provide specific boosts and advantages to players, enhancing their in-game experience and performance.
  • Collectibles: Unlike consumables, collectibles cannot be consumed within the game. They are fully owned by players and can be held in their inventory or displayed as part of their digital presence. Examples of collectibles include digital clothing, digital items, and digital vehicles. Collectibles are uniquely identifiable as NFT items, with their ID markers stored on the blockchain. Players can trade collectibles back to the system or with other players via the Store. Additionally, collectibles are visible on the player’s avatar in the game.

Distribution of loot
As players explore Futuverse worlds, such as the Mars surface or a floating city on Earth, they can discover various containers with valuable contents like resources, blueprints, or items of different grades. These containers are remnants of early colonization and reconnaissance missions, which often failed and scattered these boxes across large areas.


Chests tiers and their content

Chests store resources, blueprints, and NFT items. Each chest guarantees a prize (some amount of PUs) and offers a random chance for additional bonus prizes (which can be NFT items, blueprints, or other resources). Chests are divided into tiers based on their value and the difficulty of opening them. While lower-tier chests can be opened for free, higher-tier chests require special items – Keys – to open. Note that high-tier chests may need more than one key. Keys are purchasable with Futuros.

CHEST TYPE HOW MANY KEYS TO OPEN? GUARANTEED PRIZE CHANCE (%) FOR EXTRA PRIZE EXTRA PRIZE
Common 0 3 PU 30% Random NFT item of Common grade OR 1 Random Blueprint OR 10 Units of Random resource (Food, Oxygen, Water, Minerals, Fuel, Medical Supplies, Electronic Parts, Advanced Materials, Research Data, Blueprints)
Rare 1 10 PU 50% Random NFT item of Rare grade AND 1 Random Blueprint OR 20 Units of Random resource (Food, Oxygen, Water, Minerals, Fuel, Medical Supplies, Electronic Parts, Advanced Materials, Research Data, Blueprints)
Epic 3 35 PU 70% Random NFT item of Epic grade AND 2 Random Blueprints OR 40 Units of Random resource (Food, Oxygen, Water, Minerals, Fuel, Medical Supplies, Electronic Parts, Advanced Materials, Research Data, Blueprints)
Note: These samples are specific to the first Futuverse™ world: Onteco™ Mars.

The game features a robust economy centered around the Power Unit (PU) and the digital fungible token, Futuro™. Players can earn, trade, and utilize these tokens through various in-game activities, such as completing missions and managing resources.

Players must efficiently manage resources such as energy, water, and food to ensure the survival and growth of their communities. This includes planning and executing strategies for sustainable living, balancing immediate needs with long-term sustainability.

7. Building and Crafting

The crafting system is designed to use resources and base goods to create more advanced elements. Almost all items available in the simulation are craftable, except some special/quest items and living beings (e.g., animals). Process of Crafting:
  1. Using Blueprints: To create a desired item, the player would use the right blueprint, e.g., a blueprint for a Medpack. Such a blueprint contains all the information needed for creating an item, including which resources and how many are required, and any special conditions that must be met. Blueprints can be obtained in several ways:
    • Mission rewards
    • Part of the loot (found in Chests)
    • Purchasable in the game Marketplace
  2. Collecting Resources: Once the player has a recipe, they know which resources need to be collected. Some resources are very common, while others are special and found in specific locations. This can trigger special resource missions for locating the desired resources. Players can collect resources in advance for future crafting needs. Both blueprints and resources can be sold in the game market to other players, as can the final crafted items.
    • Players have limited load capacity and need to manage their inventory. Regular visits to their HQ are necessary to store resources and continue exploring.
  3. Crafting the Item: When a player has a proper recipe and enough resources, they can start the crafting process. All resources used are consumed, and the crafted items appear in the player’s inventory. Sometimes crafting requires special conditions, like using a workbench.

    Process of crafting of item

Crafted items can be:

  • Sold to other players or NPCs
  • Given to other players or NPCs as part of quests
  • Kept for personal use, e.g., decorating their HQ
  • Used for further creations, such as assembling a set of items (like a set of clothes).

Players can create almost endless variations of items using different resources. For example, Cotton is needed to create Fabric. With Fabric and a T-shirt Blueprint, a player can create a T-shirt. By default, all crafted items are white unless specified otherwise in the recipe.

Sometimes, the mission objective is to craft a specific item, such as a carbon dioxide filter to protect colony inhabitants. Players must find the appropriate blueprint and resources, craft and install the item to complete the mission and receive rewards.

Some items are expensive to craft, requiring significant resources. In such cases, construction is possible through the joint effort of Brigade members, each donating some resources. These items benefit the entire Brigade, e.g., a surveying satellite that increases the distance at which loot containers can be spotted on the planet’s surface.

To help players understand the value of different resources, they are categorized based on rarity and quality:

  • Grey: Very common items of poor quality
  • Green: Common items of standard quality
  • Blue: Less common items of above-standard quality, with additional slots
  • Orange: Rare, highly desirable items with two additional slots
  • Red: Extremely rare, valuable items with three additional slots

To help players understand the value of different resources, they are categorized based on rarity and quality:

  • Grey: Very common items of poor quality
  • Green: Common items of standard quality
  • Blue: Less common items of above-standard quality, with additional slots
  • Orange: Rare, highly desirable items with two additional slots
  • Red: Extremely rare, valuable items with three additional slots

8. Digital Assets: Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs)

NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) represent ownership of unique items within the Futuverse. These digital assets are tokenized, ensuring that each item can only have one official owner at a time, and ownership records cannot be altered. NFTs can be purchased with Futuros in the Futuverse marketplace.

Digital real estate is a significant component of the Futuverse, with digital assets such as MIRS™ providing a unique opportunity to own virtual real estate. For example, owning a MIRS grants players Citizen status in the Futuverse World where the property is located, offering various in-game benefits and privileges.

The Futuverse includes many other digital real estate, such as non-residential assets, land and critical energy production infrastructure that is accessible to the users based on their critical relevance for the community and the membership of the user.

The Ecosystem ID is an NFT that validates the player’s association with a specific Futuverse World. It also grants players Explorer Membership, allowing them to participate more fully in the ecosystem’s activities and missions.

To give players an understanding of the value of NFTs, they are categorized into three grades (tiers):
  • Common items: Low value
  • Rare items: Above standard value
  • Epic items: High value
  • Legendary loot: Introduced later with the highest value
The in-game NFTs are presented in two main modes within the game: as wearable elements visible on the avatar and on the player’s portrait. The player’s portrait is necessary for showing small items like rings or necklaces. In-game NFTs are divided into:
  • Solid items: Permanent. Only solid NFTs can be subject to trade.
  • Utility items: Temporary but can become solid items once a specific task is completed.
Determining In-game NFT Value: The value of an NFT is determined by its rarity, popularity, and durability, represented by the formula: value = (D × P × D2) / I Where: D = drop chance (%) P = popularity D2 = durability score I = Similar items available in the market at the time of calculation.

Distribution of NFTs

Examples of in-game NFT Items:
  • Oxygen Generator (Common grade): Creates 100 units of Oxygen
  • Superfood Ration (Common grade): Feeds the player for 2 days
  • Infrared Goggles (Rare grade): Allows the player to see in complete darkness
  • Set of Titanium Tools (Rare grade): Player can work 10% faster
  • Lucky Stone (Epic grade): Player has a 10% better chance to find higher-grade loot
  • Portable Computer (Epic grade): Player consumes 1 PU less per day

Players can customize their avatars with different pieces of clothing or jewelry, each marked by rarity:

  • Grey: Common items of poor quality
  • Blue: Rare items above standard quality
  • Red: Epic items with high statistics

All these items are unique NFT collectibles and are tradeable with other players.

9. User-Generated Content and Customization

Futuverse empowers users with extensive tools for creating and customizing content, enhancing their immersion and personal connection to the Futuverse worlds. The platform supports user-generated content, allowing players to shape their environment, create unique items, and contribute to the collective experience of the Futuverse community.

  3. Marketplace Contributions: In addition to trading crafted items, players can create and sell unique NFTs, such as rare collectibles and custom-designed wearables. This marketplace activity supports the in-game economy and encourages entrepreneurial creativity.
  4.  

    1. Collaborative Builds: Players can work together on large-scale construction projects, such as community centers, public artworks, and infrastructure. These collaborative efforts promote teamwork and strengthen community bonds.
    2. Brigade Customization: Brigades can create their own emblems, uniforms, and bases, reflecting their identity and values. This customization enhances team spirit and fosters a sense of belonging among members.
    3. Public Events and Competitions: Futuverse hosts regular events and competitions that highlight user-generated content, such as design contests, storytelling festivals, and creative showcases. These events provide recognition and rewards for talented creators.

    By integrating robust customization options and supporting user-generated content, Futuverse ensures that players have the freedom to shape their own experiences and contribute meaningfully to the virtual world. This emphasis on creativity and personalization enriches the gameplay and fosters a dynamic, engaged community.

10. Marketplace

The Marketplace, also known as the Game Store, combines digital solutions created by Futuverse with content from users, creating a dynamic, player-driven marketplace. Here, users can exchange and sell their collectibles, whether created by the Ecosystem or the community, adding exciting opportunities for content creators. The Marketplace serves several primary purposes in the Futuverse:

  1. Introducing new items into the game economy, which adds excitement and diversity to the player experience.

Establishing a dynamic and vibrant internal trade system. Users interested in consumables or collectibles can purchase them from other players.

Allowing players to trade skills, NFTs, or other digital assets to earn Power Units (PUs) or to purchase PUs directly using Futuros.

Setting expected price ranges for new and existing collectibles based on their rarity and demand.

11. Futuverse™ Worlds and Roadmap

The Futuverse™ encompasses a variety of worlds, each meticulously designed to provide unique environments and challenges. These worlds include Mars, the Moon, floating ocean cities, desert regions, and a nuclear winter post-apocalyptic world, each offering distinct experiences and resources for players to explore and utilize.

These diverse environments require players to adapt their strategies and skills to thrive, making the Futuverse a dynamic and engaging ecosystem.

To stay updated on the latest developments and planned enhancements, players are encouraged to refer to the Futuverse Roadmap. The roadmap outlines upcoming features, expansions, and improvements, ensuring that the Futuverse remains an evolving and exciting platform.

Note: The above Gameplay is subject to change or to be amended as the Futuverse ecosystem continues being developed as per the roadmap.

Core Gameplay Elements

Creating a human settlement from scratch requires to generate everything, from energy, to materials, to supply chains. The Futuverse defines a Power Unit™ (PU) as the unit of energy required per person to exist in the environment.

Learn more about Futuverse Economics: Futuverse Economy

Each extreme environment has different resources and hazards so each world has a different daily consumption of Power Units.

The Futuverse simulation can be experiences through Virtual Reality, PC workstation or directly through direct access on the web. The environment will be realised in the full 3D environment.

The different worlds and gameplay activities will be formed in different stages of development:

Learn more about the roadmap: Roadmap

Competition through Collaboration is critical for innovation, specially on extreme environments. Futuverse is a simulation at a large scale of potential social conflict and unrest that we may experience in the near future. The need for Power Units to survive, or thrive, and the harsh conditions that demand a high usage of Power Units will simulate how large amounts of individuals and groups behave under such high-pressure conditions.

As living on Extreme Environments is extremely dangerous, players need to cooperate to survive, and they organize themselves around teams, called Brigades. The Brigade’s main goal is to win the competitions (against other Brigades or AI) to get the rewards in the form of PU.

Brigade can be set-up by the digital asset owner which can be purchased and sold at the Marketplace.

Exploring extreme environments, whether on Mars, the Moon, floating ocean cities, desert regions with intense heat and scarce water, or post-nuclear war landscapes, presents a range of significant hazards. These dangers require appropriate protective measures for explorers and their equipment, including habitats and communication systems. While some hazards can be anticipated and mitigated, others may occur unexpectedly.

Below is a list of the common environmental hazards inside Futuverse.

Electromagnetic Storms: In space and on other celestial bodies, solar winds or electromagnetic storms pose a severe threat. These can often be predicted a few hours in advance with the right equipment, such as an Astro Laboratory (Hazard Lab**)**. Such storms can destroy unprotected biological tissue and severely disrupt or destroy radio communications. Protective measures include shielding vulnerable infrastructure with metal walls or burying them beneath a thick layer of regolith.

Fire: Fire is a critical danger, especially in enclosed spaces like habitats or vehicles. It can rapidly consume oxygen, transforming breathable air into toxic fumes and potentially causing explosions from pressurized containers. Small fires might be controlled with extinguishers, but large fires typically require containment, sealing off the affected area to deplete the fire of oxygen and fuel, letting it extinguish naturally.

Dust Storms: On planets with atmospheres or particulate matter, dust storms can reduce visibility, damage equipment, and impede solar energy collection. Shielding and robust engineering designs can help mitigate these effects, ensuring that key systems remain operational during such events.

Radiation Exposure: Radiation from cosmic rays or unshielded nuclear reactors is a pervasive threat in many extreme environments. Continuous monitoring and the use of radiation-proof habitats and clothing are essential to protect against this hazard.

Pressure Variations: Both overpressure and underpressure are concerns in controlled environments. Structural integrity of habitats must be ensured to prevent catastrophic depressurization, which can occur from punctures or seal failures. Conversely, systems must be in place to prevent dangerous overpressurization during malfunctions or in fire scenarios.

Oxygen Deprivation: Lack of breathable air is a deadly risk, whether in a building or a spacesuit. This could stem from structural damage, fire, accidental decompression, or equipment failure. Immediate actions include moving to a hermetically sealed environment or utilizing emergency oxygen supplies in spacesuits. Repairing breaches with quick solutions like duct tape or sharing oxygen supplies via connectors can provide temporary relief until a safe location or proper repairs can be achieved



There are different types of the buildings available in the simulation (game). Here’s the initial selection of the few initial, more will come during the game development phase, according to the actual needs.

Living Quarters: place where all citizens live (have their bed and even some personal space). Although each of such space is connected with Power Station and Oxygen Generator, to secure supplies of energy and oxygen, it have small internal generators, which can generate electricity and oxygen by an hour, if the external delivery is cut/disrupted. Each Living Quarter is also equipped with Air Lock. in the first Futuverse world, Onteco Mars, this living quarter is called MIRS

Communal Areas: Live on extreme environments requires cooperation and team building so living in those locations need to have spaces for social interactions where community building, trade and social aspects are part of the day to day life.

Airlock: it’s a small hermetic room, which is suited to safely reach out and in of the facilities without loosing of the air. If anyone want to leave the facility, or go back to it from external space, he need to go through Air Lock. The airlock are of particular importance on the Onteco Mars, Onteco Moon and Ashia.

Hazard Lab: it’s a specialised science facility. It’s used for conducting of different science experiments, and it can also warn about incoming environmental hazards.

Corridors: it can have different length and provide communication / movement of users between connected buildings. Usually it’s a hermetic space, but each end of the Corridor can be equipped with Air Lock.

Communication Stations: it’s a specialised building which secures radio communication with other Mars colonies and Earth. It consume large amounts of electrical power.

Laboratories: specialised science facility. It’s used for researching of the artifacts found in the space outside of the base, along with the focusing on the other tasks (e.g. research how to increase productivity of the plant hydro farms). Consumes large amount of electrical power.

Power Stations: facility used for production of electricity. It can use nuclear reactor to work, or solar panels which are scattered on the large area around the base.

Oxygen Generators: facility used for creation of oxygen, which is consumed by humans, plants and animals. This facility will not be needed in Thalassa Floating City and Pyrarx Desert City.

Warehouse/Storages: building of the general purpose, which is used for store of resources or as a place where plants (Plants Hydro Farm) or animals (Animals Farm) are produced, and, subsequently, food.

Underground Facilities: it’s a general purpose space, however it’s made underground, to provide better support against physically harmful effects of the outside environment.

Workshops: this building is intended for creation and repairing of different machines, like vehicles or robots controlled by AI.

Vaults: heavily armoured and well protected space, which is intended to protect the most valuable assets of the human settlement.

Farming Facilities: it provides the infrastructure to produce food, either hydroponics crop, animals, microalgue or cellular meat, depending on what world are we located.

Manufacturing Facilities: Creating materials and products in a self-cointained environment is essential for the long term feasibility of a human colony

School and Universities: Education and training for the inhabitants of extreme worlds is critical.

Space Port: Traveling among Futuverse words is a important aspect of searching and experience life in different extreme environments and a space port will be provided in each world to facilitate the transportation inside Futuverse.

Inside a Futuverse world, travelling can be conducted on foot (on shorter distances, e.g. through the exploration of the nearest surroundings of the space base) on with use of specialized, hermetic vehicles (on the longer distances, for the far exploration of the unknown lands). As to simulate the revealing of the unknown spaces we are introducing the “Fog of the Unknown” (in other systems is also called Fog of war) feature. It means that the terrain not visited yet by the user is covered on the strategic map with the thick fog. This fog disappears, and player can check the details of the specific terrain once it’s visited by the user.

While traveling among worlds is possible, it requires a lot of energy, so only users with large amounts of Power Units can travel. As Mars is the most complex environment and therefore the one that requires and generates the largest amount of Power Units, those that join the Futuverse in the first world, Onteco Mars, will have higher opportunities to travel to future words and therefore enjoy the wealth of being a pioneer in new virtual worlds.

The Brigades are a fundamental feature of the simulation as they are a social organizations, which groups the players, from 1 to 10 individuals.

To raise a new Brigade, the player needs the digital asset that allows them to start a team, choose Brigade name, logo, colour, and a short description. The player who raises the Brigade begins as its Founder. He/she can invite new Brigade members, promote them on higher ranks, demote them on lower ranks, and kick them from the Brigade. He can also accept the missions, put the taxes from Brigade members, and send messages to all Brigade members.

Founder earns some portion of Brigade taxes (see below) to his own pocket. There are also other ranks in the Brigade, as follow:

General – he earns some part of Brigade Taxes (lower than Founder).

Officer – he earns some part of Brigade Taxes (lower than General).

Private – he earns some part of Brigade Taxes (lower than Officer).

Once the player joins the Brigade, it has his “career” in the Brigade on the lowest rank (Private). By the decision of the Brigade member of higher rank (Founder, Generals, Officers) he can be promoted on the higher rank, mean Officer. Promotion on the General level (from Officer) is based on voting of other Generals and Founder (Officers cannot decide about promotion of other Officers).

Brigades competes with each other (maximum 10 Brigades in the batch) to earn the prizes form successfully completed missions. The best paid positions are only positions 1-5 are rewarded, so it means that Brigade on positions 6-10 earns very little rewards. 1 position means the prize enough to survive by Brigade of ten members by 4 months (for example in Onteco Mars as single colonist consumes 360 PU per month, such reward is set on the 14 400 PU).

However we don’t want to introduce Brigades conflicts too early. On the initial stage game Brigades are focused on raising of the buildings, as this activity is more profitable. However after 2 years productivity of buildings is stopped are more Buildings are productive by around 2 years, which means that after this period Brigades starts to compete for mission prizes, as they are the only source of PUs needed to survive.

The player can be kicked from Brigade by other Brigade members of valid rank (e.g. Officer can be kicked by Chief or General, but not by Officer or Private) or leave the Brigade at their own will, and immediately lose all Brigade benefits (e.g. bonus to earnings). Finding a new Brigade would be easy – there is a Brigade roster in the game, where all tribes announce themselves in search of new members. Players can join the desired Brigade n immediately or apply to it, and Chief accepts or rejects applications of new candidates.

We can introduce different Brigade buildings (eg. Brigade HQ, Brigade Workshop etc.) which need the joint investment of all Brigade members.

If player leaves the Brigade (by his own will or kicked by Brigade Founder) he keeps all the Brigade n benefits by next 7 days. If during this period he will join another Brigade, he immediately looses the benefits granted by his former Brigade.

Brigade Taxes

A Brigade Founder can decide about putting of taxes on all Brigade members, which are distributed equally among all of higher Brigade members (Officers and above). Taxes are gathered in two ways:

  • From all income of Brigade members (from 1 to 10%);
  • Part of the Brigade mission rewards (from 5 to 25%).

Brigade gains from taxes can be also considered as the main source of financing of the Brigade buildings. The Brigade buildings feature can be considered in future development.

Futuverse economy proposes as an incentive a mechanism of rewards to favor the development of the Community. With blockchain, it is common to have a mechanism that allows generating passive income, called Staking. To promote the formation of Brigades, staking is available for members of Brigades only.

Through this mechanism, users deposit Futuros to freeze their use and, in return, receive interest rates, similar to what happens with fixed terms in traditional banking systems. Offering this is beneficial for Futuros to be stable and for planning the remuneration rates to be set in advance with specific amounts and deadlines. In addition, this information gives the model a good reputation and soundness. A fee achieves transactions that are generated with Futuro. The fund generated from these transactions can be used for multiple purposes, some of which are discussed below:

  • Have a common fund (commonly known as Treasury) whose use is subject to player’s vote and can be used for multiple purposes.
  • Allocate part of the percentage to the Treasury and another percentage to players.
  • Allocate part of the percentage to be removed from circulation (burned). In this way, Futuro would be appreciated economically.

The purpose of the tutorial mission is to familiarise player with game controls, HUD, and missions. The tutorial will be executed through “live” simple initial mission, but with text-based pop-ups, which will highlight, step by step, such topics like (in order):

  1. Basic game controls.
  2. Preparation to the game session – creation of player avatar and crypto wallet + explanation how wallet works.
  3. Environmental hazards and how to manage them.
  4. Role and purpose of the Brigades. Player is auto-assigned to the training AI Brigade.
  5. What are PU and how to obtain them.
  6. What are resources and their purpose.
  7. What are Chests/lootboxes and how do they work.
  8. Using and managing player Abilities.
  9. Game missions.
  10. Game Store management.
  11. The role of player’s HQ.
  12. Explanation of Skills.

The missions are intended as main activity of the Brigades. They are displayed to the player in a form of text entries, and they have:

  • limited context information (e.g. NPC asks player to collect few containers of regolith and bring them to the HQ);
  • main and secondary goals (main goal: collect 3 loads of regolith; secondary goal: find the missing radio antenna in the area);
  • proposed rewards (5 PU for obtaining the main goal + 2 PU for obtaining the secondary goal).

The main goals are critical and if they are not achieved, the whole mission fails (the player is defeated). Each mission also contains some secondary objectives. They are not obligatory but fulfilling them gives the player something valuable, for example, resources. If the player does not complete the secondary goals, it does not influence the conditions of his winning or losing in the overall mission excessively. The result of the mission depends only on the main goals being completed. If a player will abort the mission or will not fulfil primary mission goals, it’s treated as a mission failure. In this case the player goes back to his HQ, to “take rest”, review again mission information and prepare himself for the next try.

1. SETTLER REWARDS. DAILY LOYALTY PRIZES & FUTUVERSE PASS

The player can play as a registered user to get Daily Prizes through a 14 days cycle, as the loyalty bonus from the game, but he can also buy “Futuverse Pass”, which gives him a lot more valuable daily prizes (see diagram below).

The player has free choice, it can play on his regular account and receive some daily rewards, but he can at any time buy a Futuverse Pass to gather more interesting stuff.

As for daily rewards we can give players small amounts of in-game money, but also random NFT items of different grades.

The regular daily prize is set as a certain amount of PUs. The player can obtain a reward from the next tier (day 2, day 3, etc.) only when he logs into the game by consecutive days. If he will break this rule (eg. will not log in on day 8), then the whole chain is going to reset, and with the next login the player receives a reward from day 1.

Also when the cycle is completed successfully (player receives all 14 rewards), he can begin a new cycle from day 1 (however we can consider daily rewards as on-time action only).

2. MPP:

The MPP Missions are organized around solo play of individual players. This kind of missions is focused on creation and maintenance of buildings. Missions are available daily for the solo players.

3. MPS:

The MPS are competitive missions between Brigades, but also created by the community (via dedicated in-game tools). These missions are connected to such activities, like trivia, e-sports, escape rooms and generally all activities except raising of the buildings. Such missions are a standard weekly activity proposed by the game for the Brigade as main source of Pus once the buildings productivity is stopped. Mission are available daily for the Brigades.

4. MPN:

The MPN are late game collaborative missions, which are commissioned by third-party vendors (e.g. NASA or MIT). Brigades need to cooperate to get their reward (PU). One mission available per month.

5. MPU:

The MPU are challenge mission. One of Brigade asks other to complete dangerous mission and puts some PU as a stake (e.g. 10 000 PUs) to the pool. If asked Brigade agreed, he puts own stake to the pool and tries to complete mission. If he successfully completes mission, it wins the pool, but if not, it looses it.

In the case of MPU missions, there is no generation of currency, but just a transfer between Brigades, so MPU does not affect the Tokenomics.

ABILITY POINTS

Abilities are special statistic which can be increased during the gameplay, by simply allocation of gained experience onto the desired slots (“dots” on the reference image below).

     *Development of the Abilities*    

The experience path gives the player the freedom of developing any build it wants, not bound to the traditional player “classes”. Of course, he/she is doing this on the foundation of two characters he/she has in its disposal (main and supportive), but can choose freely if he/she wants to focus on. As on the reference screen below, each “path” leads to different solutions (each “dot” represents tiny partial bonus, eg. +2% to PU earning or 1% quicker movement), and it’s up to the player how he wants to develop his character (to which major bonuses his path will lead).

SKILLS

Skills are buyable by PUs. The player cannot buy skill on tier 2 until he buys skill tier 1 in the same specialization. Skills cannot be sold back, and there are no limitations on how many Skills player can possess. Skills are buyable separately.

LOOT DROP

Loot is the in-game economic driver for the players. Loot comes in two categories, namely consumables and collectibles.

Distribution of loot

Type of loots:

  • Consumables can be purchased in the Game Store, or obtained throughout the game. They can be used in-game to gain certain boosts;
  • Collectibles are obtained in the same way, but cannot be consumed in the game. Collectibles are items which are fully owned by the player, and can be held in their inventory or displayed publicly as part of their digital presence. Examples of these collectibles are digital clothing, digital items or digital vehicles. Collectibles are uniquely identifiable (NFT items – see below), and their ID markers are stored on the blockchain. Collectibles can be sold back to the system or to the other players (via Store). Collectibles are visible on the player’s avatar in the game.

LOOTBOXES / CHESTS

When player explores the Futuverse worlds, such as the Mars surface or a floating city on Earth, from time to time he can find a various containers with interesting contents, like resources, blueprints or even items of various grades. These containers are remnants of the numerous colonisation and reconnaissance missions from the early stage of Mars colonisation. Some of these missions failed, and colonisation spaceships crashed, scattering the boxes with precious elements on the large perimeter.

*Chests tiers and their content*   

Chests are containers, which are used to store resources, blueprints and NFT items. Each Chest always contains guaranteed prize (some amount of PUs) and have random chance to have additional bonus prize (which can be NFT item, blueprint or some resources). Chest are divided on tiers (levels), where lower level tiers contain less valuable items. Some lower tiers Chest can be opened for free, but those on higher ranks need a special item – Key – to be opened. Please be noted that a player can need even more than a single key to open a high-tier chest. Keys are purchasable by real money.

Gameplay

The crafting system is intended to use resources and base goods to create more advanced elements. Almost all items available in the simulation are craftable, except some special/quest items and living beings (e.g. animals).

Process of crafting:

  1. To create a desired item, the player would use the right blueprint e.g. blueprint for Medpack. Such a blueprint contains all of the information needed for creating an item: which and how many resources need to be used, and which special conditions would be met to create an item (e.g. to create Medpack player would use Antibiotics and Bandages). Blueprints can be obtained in several ways, as follow:

    • mission reward.
    • part of the loot (found in Chest).
    • buyable in the game Marketplace.
  2. Once the player has a recipe, he knows which resources need to be collected. Some of the resources are very common, while others are very special and can be found in special places (this fact can trigger special resource mission for finding on the desired resource). Also, a player can collect in advance any resources he finds, as to just get them at hand once he will find a proper recipe to use them for creation of something useful or valuable for others. Both blueprints and resources can be sold on the game market to the other players (and, of course, finally created goods too).

    However we need to remember that players have limited load capacity, and cannot endlessly store more and more resources in their pockets. In fact he needs to visit his HQ from time to time to unload resources into the stash and go back to explore the simulation (game) world or use the appropriate vehicle.

  3. When a player has a proper recipe and enough resources to create the item, he can start the process. In practice all the resources used for creation are consumed and the desired items appear in the player’s inventory. Sometimes to create the item the player needs some special conditions, like using the workbench.

    Process of crafting of item

    1. Created item can be the subject of the next actions. Player can:
      • sell it;
      • give it to other player or NPC (as he demands it due to the quest assigned to the player);
      • save it for own needs (e.g. to decorate own HQ);
      • use it for further creations – e.g. for creation of a set of items (like a set of clothes).

    Player can create almost endless variations of the items as he can use many different factors.

    For example, Cotton (resource) is needed to create Fabric (item). With the use of Fabric and T-shirt Blueprint player can create T-shirt (final item). As per default all the created items have white colour by default, except the recipe says something different (e.g. recipe for Red Hat).

    Crafting during Missions:

    Sometimes subject of the mission is crafting of the specific item – it can be e.g. carbon dioxide filter which protects colony inhabitants from dangerous intoxication. Once player will pass the whole process of item creation – he need to find proper blueprint and resources, then craft and mount mission item – then mission is completed and player gets his reward.

    Crafting as Brigade’s activity:

    Some of the items can be expensive (e.g. surveying satellite) in terms of the resources which are needed (and consumed) in the process of their creation. At this case their construction is possible upon the joint effort of Brigade – all it members donates some part of the resource to fill the whole needed amount. Such constructions brings benefits whole Brigade – e.g. surveying satellite allows all Brigade members to spot everything on the planet surface on 10% greater distance (including loot containers).

    Rarity of crafting ingredients:

    To give the players better understanding of the value of the different resources, they are divided into five categories, from the most popular and cheapest to the extremely unique and highly priced. These categories are sorted as follow:

    Grey – very popular items of rather poor quality

    Green – popular items of standard quality

    Blue – less amount of items above standard quality. Items in this category have additional slot.

    Orange – small group of highly desirable items. Items in this category have two additional slots.

    Red – a single, most famous items. Items in this category have three additional slots.

Non Fungible Tokens (NFT)

NFT (Non-Fungible Token) is used to represent ownership of unique items. We can tokenize different virtual things, like art or collectibles. They can only have one official owner at a time and no one can modify the record of ownership or copy/paste a new NFT into existence. To give players some measurement of the NFT value, we are dividing them on three grades (tiers) as follow:

  • Common items of rather low value
  • Rare items above standard value
  • Epic items with high value

Later on we will introduce highest tier:

  • Legendary loot with highest value

Each NFT can give selected bonuses to the user, or just have only tradeable value, like any “real” collectible item

NFTs will be presented in the game in two main modes, as wearable elements, visible on the avatar, and on the player’s portrait. Player’s portrait is necessary to show tiny elements, like rings or necklaces, which are hard to spot on a rather generic looking avatar (it has not much distinctive details, eg. he has no eyes, mouth, node or ears).

In general NFTs are divided into solid items and utility items, Utility items disappear over time, but they can turn into solid (infinite) items, once the player will fulfil a simple task, which “hardens” the utility NFT. Only solid NFTs can be subject to trade.

Following basic economic principles, the value of the item should be determined by its rarity, as well as the overall popularity of the item, hence it could be presented like this:

value = (D × P × D2) / I

Where:

D = drop chance (%)

P = popularity

D2 = durability score

I = Similar items available in the market at the time of calculation.

*Distribution of NFTs*    

Examples of NFT items

Oxygen Generator (Common grade) – creates 100 units of Oxygen

Superfood Ration (Common grade) – feeds the player by 2 days

Infrared Googles (Rare grade) – allows player to see in complete darkness

Set of Titanium tools (Rare grade) – player can work 10% faster

Lucky Stone (Epic grade) – player have 10% better chance to find loot of better grade (e.g. Rare instead of Common)

Portable Computer (Epic grade) – player consumes 1 PU less per day.

Each avatar can wear different pieces of Clothes or Jewellery.

Each of these items have different colour markings depending on their rarity as follows:

Grey – common items of rather poor quality

Blue  – rare items above standard quality

Red – epic items with high statistics

All of the items above are collectibles (see later) and are unique NFT items, which are tradeable with other players.

Chain of user’s activity

Here we are notifying all the gameplay actions which can be raised by the player during the gameplay session from it start (login to the game) to end (player logs off from the game).

  1. Player logs into the game.
  2. He can begin a new game or continue existing (saved) game session. If the new game begins, the player is convinced to play the Tutorial mission (non-skippable).
  3. The player continues gameplay. He can perform such activities as:
    • receive the daily reward;
    • participate in game activities (e.g. Brigade, missions, raising of buildings, etc.);
    • open loot boxes/Chests;
    • managing collectibles and consumables.
    • Learn and earn certifications.
  4. The player logs off from the game.

The Marketplace (Game Store) serves two purposes in the concept. Firstly it will input new collectibles into the game economy, adding excitement and diversity to the experience. Secondly it will establish expected price ranges for new and existing collectibles. The store will hold a wide range of collectibles. The pricing will be set by game for each collectible or rarity group. Consumables can also be purchased in the Game Store.

The Game Store is also a place of the player-driven marketplace for exchanging /selling the collectibles. Users wanting to get their hands on consumables or collectibles are able to purchase them from other players.
