The cryptocurrency industry has come a long way since the invention of Bitcoin over a decade ago. Since then, the concept of blockchain-based play-to-earn games has become popular. These are games that reward players with non-fungible tokens (NFTs). Today, they are at the core of almost every blockchain-based metaverse being launched. Earning a digital token that has real-world value in a game can be fun and rewarding. Here are the top five NFT games you should consider looking into.
Axie Infinity
Axie Infinity is considered the top play-to-earn game in the crypto world. Unfortunately, the game was the recent victim of a cyber-attack that saw it lose assets worth $600 million. The game is secured using the Ethereum blockchain. Players of this game can mint NFTs, which they collect, breed, raise, and battle against others online. There are numerous types of Axies, which are the game’s NFTs. These Axies offer players endless possibilities for customization to come up with the rarest combination. Axie Infinity has a mature ecosystem that is based around AXS tokens. When players battle others and win, they earn love potions, which can be used to buy the AXS tokens.
Silks
Silks is a relatively new NFT project, which is based on the theme of thoroughbred horses. On Silk, players own a digital horse, which exists as an NFT that is linked to a real-world horse. Each NFT horse has characteristics similar to the real-world horse.
In-game performance is directly linked to performance in the real world, which means that when the real world horse wins, you will receive STT, the in-game tokens. The more STT you receive, the more you can participate in breeding and staking.
Chosen Ones
This is a play-to-earn game that is secured using the Binance Smart Chain. It uses the power of the Unity game engine. Chosen One is built as an auto-battler, which means players focus on developing characters while an AI handles the battles. Every hero in this game is designed as an NFT, with each one having unique characteristics, skills, and abilities. This game has ambitions of becoming a mainstay of the esports industry.
The Sandbox
This is a blockchain-based game where users can build, craft, and survive. The players can buy LAND, which is an NFT, build a castle, and go on quests to earn SAND tokens. It requires a combination of creativity, strategy, and survival skills to succeed in The Sandbox. The more items a player builds, the higher the level they can reach. The entire project is now worth billions of dollars with each SAND token being worth around $3.3.
Gods Unchained
Gods Unchained was designed as a digital trading cards NFT game. In this game, players do battle with other players. The creator of this game is Chris Clay, who is the former director at the wildly popular Magic: The Gathering Arena. Thus far, it has already seen over $50 million in trading activity.
Players earn new cards, which are NFTs, as they play. These cards can be traded on a secondary market. With time, players can build a perfect deck and swap rare cards for crypto and cash out in fiat.
Summary
Blockchain games provide players with a unique means by which to explore virtual spaces and create collections of valuable NFTs with real-world value. If you want to find a great NFT play-to-earn game in 2022, the above-mentioned games will act as a good choice.
