Blockchain technology gives for many developments and the gaming industry is not far behind. It has certainly been one of the first to look for spaces within this new world; However, with timid results to date.
This could change, since a very addictive game was recently released, which is rapidly adopting users. This is Steemmonsters, a game developed in the Steem blockchain and so far has incorporated almost four thousand players, with more than one million games made.
Steemmonsters was created by two witnesses of Steem: Aggroed and Yabapmatt, who have been working on the development of this incredible game for months.
But what is Steemmonsters
It is a strategy game with collectible cards, where each one has particular powers and characteristics. The battles are peer to peer and in real time, which are executed by seasons. It is currently in the fourth season and each of these lasts 17 days. At the end of the season they give you a number of cards depending on the level you have reached.
The main attraction of this game is the money that can be generated by exchanging cards. It has a market built into its website where all offers of letters for sale appear. You also have the possibility to change cards with other players.
The value of each card varies according to its power and especially its scarcity. The issuance is limited, minor or major depending on the letter. Market prices currently range from $ 0.03 to $ 475 per letter.
Every season there are novelties in the game, making the competition more attractive. According to Aggroed, next year there will be many new features including tournaments. They are also expected to develop the App for Android and iOS since currently it can only be played from the browser. A launch like that could make the amount of players and money circulating on site increase significantly.
To be part of this community, you have to have a Steem account that they give you for free and immediate when you buy your Start Pack, essential to start the game. It has a value of 10$ and brings 30 different cards.
