So far, 2018 has been a brutal year for the cryptocurrency market; investors are still hoping that exciting projects will take off and bring in mass adoption of the blockchain technology. However, a vast majority of the current crypto projects and ICOs are only vaporware, currently selling just an idea and seeking funds to actualize it. A solution to the current state of the market would be the integration of blockchain in an industry that will get upgraded by the capabilities of this disruptive technology. The online gaming industry is a perfect candidate for this symbiosis.

With the help of a tamper-proof distributed ledger system, gamers will significantly benefit from the following features:

- Full ownership of their in-game digital assets

- A detailed history of events and items stored on the blockchain

- Digital Asset Trading systems with the help of cryptocurrencies

- Unique upgrade system based on previous actions and transactions

These are just some key features that blockchain can bring to online games. However, it could do so much more by implementing robust economy systems and even reward programs for developers to continuously develop cool games.

Decimated: Survive a post-apocalyptic world and participate in the blockchain in-game economy

The brainchild of Fracture Labs, Decimated is an online game that immerses players in a post-apocalyptic world where they have to pick a side in the ultimate battle for survival. The earth is now a wasteland, and you have to choose between a human citizen that ransacks everything in his wake or join the elite ranks of the cyborg cops, who wield an oppressive authoritarian force in this hellish world.

The game features purchasable and customisable vehicles, weapons, items and even cosmetic customisations. The players can rest assured that their items and achievements are safe at all times being backed by the blockchain architecture. Players will be incentivized to search for the rarest items in the game and trade them with other players.

With the help of the DIO token, the cryptocurrency in Decimated, players will be able to buy and sell items in the game as well as exchange the tokens for their real store of value of any cryptocurrency exchange that is approved by Fracture Labs thus bridging the gap between the real world and the digital economy.

As the game scales further, people might even consider playing the game like a full-time job due to the seamless connection of the DIO token. The game is built on top of Unreal Engine 4, with a persistent online system where everything you do, matters. The project is in good hands with a team of industry veterans that have worked on acclaimed titles like Star Citizen, Crysis, God of War and Dying Light. To further develop the blockchain side of the game, Decimated is officially partnering with The Halo Platform (https://www.haloplatform.tech/), specifically, their game platform Block and Chain Games (https://www.blockandchain.games).
