Although there has been a surge in the release of blockchain games to replace traditional games, there are still some challenges gamers face with blockchain games as of 2021 and earlier. While most of the games didn’t go beyond their pre-sales, those that did were all based on pay-to-win models. And this makes gamers pay more just to play games creating a hindrance for newbies.
Another challenge is that Genesis items issued for NFT Games are always more valuable than subsequent items making the later NFTs weak and of less value. This also affects new people coming into these games. ChainGuardian was designed to deal with these issues and enhance the mass adoption of blockchain.
What is ChainGuardian?
ChainGuardians is a player-driven P2E platform built to integrate traditional gaming concepts with blockchain technologies. Within the ecosystem, players can engage in free-to-play as well as play-to-earn.
The project is designed to be an NFT mining platform and Role-Playing Game that will reward users for the time spent in the ecosystem. So players can collect, battle, develop their armies and hone their skills to engage in various gameplays.
How Does ChainGuardian Platform Work
First, Guardians are the NFTs used in the gaming platform and can be used in two ways to play and earn: NFT Mining and Role Play Gaming. ChainGuardian is the first platform to make it possible for users to stake their NFTs and earn in the process. In this process, the staking of the NFTs yields tokens that can be used for governance activities in the ChianGuardian platform.
The Role Play aspect of the game is in its Beta phase. In it, players can engage in PvP mode, as well as PvE mode. With these modes, players will be able to Play, Collect, and Earn on the platform. NFTs that will be used can be improved with items bought in the Marketplace.
Also, it’s in the Marketplace that NFTs are traded with each other for profit and other reasons. Players will use the native token to purchase or receive payment for items traded in the Marketplace.
Because the project is community-focused, there is Gamified Boostpad and Incubator that provide good support for upcoming NFT and DeFi protocol projects. The aim is to connect good projects with proven supporters. ChainGuardian is building a large crypto community and so that presence becomes a great asset for projects that are launched.
