Tokens are used to enhance the "interestingness of the game" Game Review Vol.11

Initially, the appeal of blockchain games was mainly in the acquisition of tokens (crypto assets) and NFTs and the profits gained through trading them. There was a tendency to think that the fun and appeal of the game itself was secondary, and that it was enough if tokens and NFTs rose in value and players gained.

However, now it seems that even people who are sensitive to terms such as tokens and NFTs are no longer interested in blockchain game titles if the game itself is not attractive. And many game companies are starting to release titles that are comparable in quality and fun to general games (not using blockchain).

It can be said that tokens and NFTs are no longer the center of the project, but are being used as elements that enhance the appeal of the game.

Battle Royale TPS playable on PC and PS5

A battle royale TPS game set in a cyberpunk world. The goal is to survive in battles with up to 150 players while swapping out prosthetic limbs called Cyberlimbs.

Immediately after its release, it ranked first on the Epic Games Store, and has attracted attention not only from blockchain gamers but also from general gamers. In-game items such as weapons and skins can be converted into NFTs, which can then be traded with other players.

Combining "Free to Play" and "Play to Earn"

A smartphone RPG with beautiful graphics and an epic story that delves into the origins of mankind, with the theme of "the fate of girls who have come into contact with taboos". Developed by CROOZ, known for "Elemental Story" and "Knights of Avalon".

The game cycle is centered around dungeon exploration and raising girls, and there are opportunities to earn NFTs for free during gameplay. NFTs can be traded on the marketplace, and through trading you can earn FCT, Ergosum's unique token.

Action x Roguelike, a hot topic in "Play to Airdrop"

A roguelike RPG for smartphones where you explore dungeons repeatedly to collect over 1,500 items. The "Play to Airdrop" campaign is running until December 15th.

Airdrop is a system where you can get NFTs and tokens for free, and you can get these by ranking high in the game rankings. The fact that it does not support Japanese is a drawback, but the controls are very orthodox, so players who like action games will be able to play it without any problems.
