Solchicks aims to be a revolutionary gaming ecosystem on Solana with P2E and PvP utilities. The game integrates as non-fungible tokens characters with each possessing different features that determine its rarity.
Using these characters, players can battle against themselves, testing the strength, skills and weapons of their SolChicks.
Players will be able to breed and train their NFTs while earning $CHICKS— the game’s governance token— when they top the leaderboard after weekly competitions.
In other instances, they earn in-game items such as feeds, weapons, skills, powerups, Solcoins (an in-game token) and other tradable NFT items.
This helps their SolChicks to grow to be the fiercest among 2500 available SolChicks. Players can acquire lands within the SolChicks metaverse.
Players who own more than one SolChicks are able to produce a SolEgg, which means another SolChick NFT.
SolChicks are already trading on major Solana-based marketplaces such as Digital Eyes, Solanart, Magic Eden, attaining a floor price of 14 SOL from a low of 1.8 SOL. One SolChick with rare attributes sold for as much as 160 SOL ($35000).
The GameFi sector is seriously heating up and the momentum is unlikely to fizzle anytime soon as we continue to witness the integration of other innovations like NFTs and the metaverse into the ecosystem.
With gamefi projects like SolChicks, the valuation of the industry is poised to explode.
