Onchain games utilize smart contracts to merge gaming with features native to the blockchain. These features include immutable in-game data, asset interoperability, and more.
In-game characters and items are represented by tokens. As in-game assets are onchain, players are able to store, transfer or trade their items freely. Composable developer standards also allow third party builders to integrate easily with games.
Onchain games allow players to own and retain the value they create in a game’s economy. Players are able to convert their assets to other currencies through secondary markets. They are also protected from extractive in-game marketplace fees, as third party alternatives are available. This is rarely possible in traditional games, where assets are generally held in centralized and siloed environments. |
