The Metaverse game that will rival the Sandbox

Metaverse and Blockchain gaming (sometimes called play to earn) are two of the newest trends in crypto today. 

The unique thing about them is that players immerse themselves in virtual worlds. Here, I feel empowered in more ways than one. It gives a different vibe compared to the regular or traditional games, as they can own assets in the metaverse, but this time, these assets count for something in the real world. 

Most of these metaverse games are based on the token economies model that allows the players to have a different and unique experience. 

This is what the game Sandbox has been able to provide which has made it a hit among many gamers. 

However, the unique feature of metaverse games built on the blockchain is that players have a variety of features and opportunities unlike before. Apart from playing the game, they can build, own various properties and acquire more in-game assets. 

Most importantly, these assets can be sold outside of the gaming environment for real fiat. As a result of this new feature, metaverse games like Sandbox have been able to give brands unprecedented potential. That’s not all, artists, players, and creators alike have been able to reap from this new opportunity. 

What is Sandbox (Sand)?

The major purpose of Sandbox is to take advantage of the potential of the novel Blockchain technology and NFTs (non-fungible tokens). NFTs offer security, scarcity, and authenticity in the metaverse.

This is an aspect that is vital when players build ecosystems and virtual worlds. Players get to create their own land and also create the gaming world the way they want through The Sandbox. 

In truth, the idea of building a gaming experience from scratch isn’t new. However, allowing players free rein on how they wish to monetize that experience is something that has been done before. It creates a new and unique concept of a metaverse. 

As a matter of fact, content gaming IPs that are user-generated are scarce these days. However, the Sandbox has been able to build a reputation in the industry in such a short time.

Pixowl, the team that created the project, ensured the game is accessible on mobile. They created The Sandbox Evolution and The Sandbox. Unsurprisingly, the two games have more than 40 million downloads on both Android and iOS combined. 

That’s not all, in 2018, Pixowl launched The Sandbox on the blockchain to disrupt well-known games like Roblox and Minecraft.

Pikamoon – the New Kid on the Block

With the success of The Sandbox, it’s impossible to think that they’ll get a competitor so soon. As luck would have it, there’s a new kid on the block and it’s called the Pikamoon Adventure. 

One surprising fact about the Pikamoon adventure – a metaverse game – is that there’s so much talk about the game and project yet it hasn’t fully launched. 

One thing is for sure, this project has the attention of industry titans and the feelers we’re getting is that it will give Sandbox a run for its money. 

For starters, the project creators are sparing no expense in ensuring the game’s architecture is top of the line. They’re using the latest Unreal Engine 5 to build the game. In addition, they’re also integrating NFTs and the in-game token is something the industry hasn’t seen before. 

Why? You may wonder.

The reason is not far fetched. The developers of Pikamoon decided to create the $Pika token – Pikamoon’s in-game token – on two of the best blockchains, Ethereum and MultiversX. This means these two blockchains are incorporated into the $Pika token and players of the game can easily connect their wallets to use their tokens in the in-game marketplace. 

How cool is that?

In addition, early birds are rewarded with a first-generation NFT which they can use in the game. The Pikamoon team has been magnanimous enough to offer the first 18,012 users a free NFT and only those that join the whitelist can access it. 

The Pikamoon adventure still has more to offer and you can head on to their website and read their whitepaper to know more about the project.
