Today, I am excited to announce that Experimental — the creators of an incredible blockchain-based strategy game called CryptoWars — will be building their game on top of the Loom SDK 🎉

In fact, you can ALREADY purchase skins and starter packs from the CryptoWars marketplace.

As you know, we’ve written extensively about why games will be the catalyst for blockchain mass adoption.

As far as CryptoWars goes…

That means… game assets, logic, status, etc. will ALL be stored on a dedicated blockchain.

It also means the end user will have total control and freedom over their CryptoWars game assets.

As a bonus, third-party developers will also be able to contribute to CryptoWars by creating custom quests.

Granted, that’s BARELY scratching the surface.

If you are serious — you should read about all the insane benefits of blockchain gaming.

Anyway…

So, What is CryptoWars and How Do I Play It? 🤔

In essence, CryptoWars is a strategy game that lets you:

Build and customize your own village Form alliances Summon an army Go to war with enemies and take control of realms

…and this will be ALL done on a blockchain.

If it helps — you can think of yourself as a nerd version of Genghis Khan 😉

But… before you summon armies or fight enemies — you’ll have to build your civilization from scratch.

As a new player, you’ll start the game with a Village and a single building called The City Center.

As a new player, you’ll be responsible for building your own civilization starting from an empty village.

When you start building out your village — development will require three resources:

Gold Crystal Quantum Dust

…and you can obtain those resources by mining, trading, or raiding.

Since you start out with a Village and The City Center, you’ll be responsible for developing your civilization, building mines, barracks, etc.

…and the fun part is: You’ll have the opportunity to UPGRADE everything you build to achieve your goals (like conquering other realms) faster and more effectively.

You’ll earn points based on each unit of currency you spend in construction, building an army, research, or defense.

Users will be ranked based on points.
