top crypto games
Crypto games have become a profitable hobby and pastime for many crypto players. The gaming Industry is worth billions of dollars, spearheaded by the revolution that disrupted traditional gaming models. Blockchain gaming has introduced more players, angel investors, and venture capital firms to the crypto ecosystem. Unlike conventional gaming, play-to-earn crypto games reward players for their in-game time and effort in the form of crypto, NFT, or an increase in previously held assets. Below are the top crypto game trends you should know that will shape the industry’s future.

Axie Infinity

  • Genre: Metaverse/card game
  • Platform: Android, Windows, iOS
  • Blockchain: Ethereum
  • Token: AXS
  • Axie Infinity is one of the biggest blockchain games ever, as it was the first ETH-based NFT game to hit $1 billion in sales in August 2021. The game was developed by Sky Mavis and mimicked the Pokemon game. Players can build a team of creatures called Axies and use them to fight enemies in adventure mode or battle other players in arena mode. More importantly, Axies are NFTs that players can keep as digital pets and use for breeding other Axies. Players can make money by producing and selling Axies, staking AXS tokens, and harvesting smooth love portions.

    Over $3.6 billion has been traded on the Axie in-house marketplace. Not only this, but the most expensive Axie ever sold was $820,000. With 2,800,000 daily active players, you only need around $660 to start playing the game. Interestingly, the creators allow people to play under a manager who covers the cost of the initial capital in exchange for a percentage split of the winnings.

    The Sandbox

    • Genre: metaverse
    • Platform: PC/MAC
    • Blockchain: Ethereum/Polygon
    • Token: Sand
    •  

      The Sandbox is a free-to-play rising star of the virtual world, where players can own, build, and monetize their gameplay on the ETH blockchain. Unlike similar games like Minecraft, The Sandbox aims to reward players with NFT for participating in the ecosystem. Three integrated products are available on the gaming platform: vox edits, the marketplace, and game maker.

      The Sand Voxedit is a powerful free 3D voxel modeling tool that NFT creation package users can use to create and animate 3D objects. Once built, the owner can export it into the Sandbox marketplace to become an NFT game asset that users can sell. Players can also use The Sandbox Game Maker for free to create amazing 3D games without any coding knowledge.

      Primarily, players can buy digital parcels of land to build and display their content. The Sand Tokens are used to purchase land and participate in DAO governance, while Asset Tokens are NFTs representing in-game items players can trade in the marketplace. Once you own land, you can fill it with your assets. If you enjoy gambling, sites such as betpack’s crypto bookmakers allow you to deposit earned tokens and cryptocurrency.

      Splinterlands

      • Genre: trading card game/auto-battler
      • Platform: PC
      • Blockchain: HIVE/WAX
      • Tokens: DEC/SPS
      • Splinterland was dubbed the king of blockchain games in 2021. True to its reputation, the creators are introducing token sales, airdrops, advanced security tools, new game mechanisms, and decentralized governance to its features. Splinterland is a cross between an auto-battler and a deck-building game. Players can create a combat lineup with their cards and watch the cards battle it out until one team remains. Winning players earn Dark Energy Crystals and additional cards they can combine for improved stats and abilities.

        Splintercards allow users to play their cards. Each card is owned as an NFT and is traded using similar features to cryptocurrencies like bitcoin. Each battle has different combat rules, and players must adopt various strategies to win. Although the game is free, you must pay $10 to join ranked battles and have the opportunity to earn money in the game. Besides earning crystals with real-world value, players can buy, sell, and lease cards to make money.

        God’s unchained

        • Genre: trading card game
        • Platform: PC/MAC
        • Blockchain: Immutable X/Ethereum
        • Tokens: Gods
        • Another innovative project that will present a new world of opportunities for crypto players as the ecosystem continues to grow is God’s unchained. Two players face an epic duel in the game to determine who is the most powerful. To do this, they can choose different gameplay, but the goal is to reduce the opponent’s God’s health to zero.

          Players use Gods to buy new card packs, craft their NFT cards, and earn rewards. The game’s infrastructure is built on Immutable X, the first layer 2 scaling solution for NFTs on Ethereum.

          Conclusion

          Gaming is one of the most promising applications of blockchain technology that is here to stay. You can earn tokens, create and sell NFTs, and control your in-game assets.
