Steemit Crypto Academy Season 3 - Intermediate course| week 4: Blockchain Video Games - Play and Earn Crypto by @marianaceleste

✍Homework of the week✍


A big greeting to all the SteemitCryptoAcademy community, it is great for me to be once again participating in this initiative but this time in intermediate level. What excites me a lot because I know that little by little I can move forward with my knowledge and taking my account further into the platform. The idea is always to grow and continue learning.

I am deeply grateful to Professor @yohan2on who decided to take this topic that many do not know but that is increasingly being positioned within the world of blockchain. He explained everything in a very easy and dynamic way.

Video games since its inception in the 50s have been all innovation for the modern world and has grown by leaps and bounds as this is one of the main sources of entertainment for children and adults. In addition to this, it is considered the great profits that it generates to its developers.

As the world has continued to evolve, video games have entered the blockchain technology, generating decentralized profits to its users under the NFT (Non-Fungible Tokens) system. NFTs are very special assets that cannot be exchanged. No two NFTs are alike, that's why they are so special and their prices are getting higher and higher.

Such is the case of :

✨Universe Blockchain Cuties✨

What is Blockchain universe cuties?

It is a video game developed under blockchains technology, through the use of NFT tokens. It currently accepts 5 blockchains which in turn is represented as "realms" within the game: Ethereum, EOS, TRON, NEO, MATIC.

This consists of the collection of cute little animals or pets, having various types of animals such as cats, bears, dogs, foxes, lizards, alien, pig, rabbit, mutant and mythic.

Besides that, they have particular characteristics of rarity and nobility that make them have more or less value according to these characteristics. Like all collectible items, the rarer they are, the more expensive they are.

These lovable characters face adventures with which they gain experience and great rewards.

Talk about the features of the game.

Let's delve a little deeper regarding this video game. As I had mentioned earlier it is developed under the NFT system where each pet actually represents a token of the Ethereum blockchain (ERC -72).

During the adventures in which your pet levels up, gains experience and rewards, it is pitted against other pets either from the game or from another user.

In addition to this, within the platform it is possible to modify the attributes or physical characteristics with which we want to see our character. Obviously this has a cost and is done through a kind of sweepstakes where users participate, but only some are winners. For those who do not, the system refunds the auctioned ETH.

The world in which our "cuties " develop is called "Cutiland ". The cuties or pets as I like to call them are created by reproducing each other, making a cross between the genes just as it happens in real life.

Among the characteristics that make each pet unique are the following:

❇ Nobility

❇ Rarity

❇ Elements: air, fire, water, earth and energy.

❇ Generation

❇ Genome

❇ Species: dog, cat, fox, rabbit, aliens, etc.

❇ Nobility

❇ Among others.

The easiest way to get pets with good characteristics to develop adventures is to buy them, you minimize the investment time and get straight to the point. For investors this is the most profitable way.

You can choose the type, blockchain, rarity, nobility. Or simply choose one already created on the platform market.

Last March 15, 2021, Blockchain Cuties Universe launched its own BCUG asset, with this asset you can increase the power of pets and their items. This asset is well supported with this project which is since the beginning of video games on the blockchain.

You will have to play the game and get some user experience

I enter the Blockchain Cuties page and click on the "Start Playing " option.

Then I select the option with which I want to create my account: email or link it to an ETHEREUM, EOS, TRON, NEO, or Matic wallet. Personally I chose to create my account using my email.

by @marianaceleste (3).png

However, here is an example of how it would be linked to a wallet such as the TRON wallet.

by @marianaceleste (6).png

Once my email is verified, I select the test option to play "free". I did it this way to familiarize myself with the game to see if I would feel comfortable investing in this video game. As you can see, I changed my pet's name to "Lindis" and owner's name to "marianaceleste".

by @marianaceleste (5).png

Send my pet on his first adventure by clicking "send on adventure ". Then I selected which adventure I wanted to send her to and in this case it was "the snowy mountain ".

by @marianaceleste (8).png

Once I finished the adventure, I beat my opponent and got to 31% experience.

by @marianaceleste (1).gif

I sent Lindis on an adventure again, but this time I selected the "Windy Hills " option.

by @marianaceleste (7).png

I reached 57% experience after this battle.

by @marianaceleste (2).gif

This time I selected again the option "The snowy mountain ". Reaching 73%.

by @marianaceleste (10).png

Once again I went to battle in the snow and this time I set a certain time to return to battle.

by @marianaceleste (9).png

Once the time was over, I managed to complete 100% of experience, thus passing to level 2.

Your review should be balanced (talk about the positive and negative aspects of the game)

Positive


✔ The game platform is quite friendly and easy to understand.

The platform is really easy to use, with precise elements that even a child could understand.

✔ No investment is needed to start practicing and understand the dynamism of it.

You can see how the dynamics of the game was without the need to invest a single token in the free mode. This is beneficial because people who know the game will feel more confident when investing.

✔ It is a game that provides confidence and credibility for its years of creation and its foundations within the blockchain.

It is a pioneer game in this technology and it is also based on one of the most solid blockchain chains such as ethereum.

✔ The game can be modified to several languages, and thus helps to be better understood from anywhere in the world.

It has several languages within the platform which makes it even more user friendly for people who do not speak English.

Negative


✗ It needs investment to start producing profits and climb within the game.

In fact, the real profits are seen if you invest by buying pets with very good or rare characteristics.

✗ The dynamics of the game is tedious and even a bit boring.

Personally I found it very boring and not very entertaining, moving away from the function of a video game which is precisely that "to entertain".

✗ The graphics are really poor which makes it less entertaining.

Although its design is very nice, the graphics are very flat and not very dynamic.

What is your rating of the game on a scale of 5?

image.png

According to my personal appreciation and my tastes in terms of video games, I give it a 3. While this is developed in 5 blockchain and all the innovation that meant that it launched its own token, making the project even more solid I found it little entertaining. This opinion is according to my tastes and although, you get rewards I do not see myself "playing" this for hours and hours as I could do with other types of video games that are currently in the world of NFTs.

Conclusion

image.png

The NFTs games developed on the blockchain are great drivers of this technology, because through them both children and adults can be reached. This is of great importance because if a financial education is achieved regarding the world of cryptocurrencies from children, in the future they will be people who bet and invest safely and sensibly, helping the growth of cryptocurrencies.

As for Blockchain Cuties Universe, it can be said that it is a very ambitious and sustainable project in time because it is formed in one of the most solid blockchains such as Ethereum. In addition to having its own token that makes it an even more profitable project for fans and players. Every day more and more people are joining.

Particularly this was a very important topic for me, as I am currently dabbling in these types of video games and it helped me to understand the internal mechanism of them.
