SuperOne – the trivia battle game and fandom metaverse

Founded in 2019 by Andreas Christensen, SuperOne has development labs in Norway, India, and Indonesia with over 60 team members. 

The company is the developer of a fandom trivia battle to engage billions of sports and entertainment fans worldwide. The ultimate aim is to build a gamified community where fans can connect and share their sports passion. 

Furthermore, SuperOne envisions a fandom metaverse. For this purpose, it will deploy a three-component business model with Super as the native currency, NFT cards that function as in-game assets, and Spaces that represent ad spaces natively embedded in the gameplay.  

The fandom metaverse will revolve around the trivia battle game, which is based on a swipe-to-earn model. The game library includes 150,000 NFT cards depicting important figures from sports and entertainment. The gamers will be able to play their favorite sports category by answering questions relating to these figures. The gameplay is built around Pass or Freeze mechanisms that reward players with 5% staking fees. Players can collect cards for additional rewards. 

Another feature will be brand collaborations that offer gamers free-to-play experiences by viewing ads through Spaces. Moreover, premium features will allow real-time micro-transactions for rewarding fans and attracting influencers and creators. The sports brands will be able to onboard fans and create fandoms in the fan arena.
