The Play-And-Earn Model: Redesigning the LoA Economy

👋 Greetings adventurers!

When we first announced our move to the blockchain, our initial design was to separate our services into two models: free-to-play and play-to-earn. As a result of a lot of great feedback, we’ve decided to instead move forward with one model: play-and-earn.

Under this new design, you’ll need to pay a one-time fee to create a character to play with, which will be $10. This fee can be paid by credit card (or with cryptocurrency) and your character will be backed by non-fungible token (NFT) technology.

Your characters can then later be sold and bought on our NFT marketplace. In addition, you can mint any of your items (like weapons, armor, pets, and even the deed to your houses) into NFTs to resell them at any time, allowing you to play and earn some money!

No More Subscriptions

Upon relaunch of the game, there will be no more subscription services (like the Citizen’s Pass). Everyone will be on the same server and will only need to pay the one-time upfront fee per character to play and enjoy all the features of the game.

Easy On-Ramp for Web2 Gamers

To play the game, you won’t need any crypto-knowledge or even need to think about that (unless you’d like to learn). You can access the game and pay the character creation fee with your credit or debit cards, and when the mobile client is released, you’ll be able to use in-app purchases to create the characters.

The only time that you’d need to do a little bit of learning on the web3 side is if you’d like to resell your items or characters. For selling (or buying) your virtual assets, we’ll provide you some simple walkthrough guides on how to set up a cryptocurrency wallet and facilitate those transactions.
