NFT Gaming - the next evolution of video games

Background for the Blog Content section

Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) have revolutionised the video game genre and NFT gaming merges traditional video game experiences with blockchain technology. This allows players to own, trade, and earn digital assets. NFT gaming matters because it challenges the traditional boundaries of ownership in the digital space, introduces innovative economic systems, and fosters deeper player engagement by making virtual assets more meaningful and valuable. 


PLAYA3ULL GAMES has compiled 5 great starter games to get into NFT gaming and web3 blockchain games.

 

How does NFT Gaming change the world?

 

NFT gaming is transforming the digital landscape by redefining how players get rewarded for playing video games.  The traditional gaming model involves players spending countless hours and, often, money, to end up with no assets that can be traded or staked.  For simply playing a game and having fun, NFT games provide a space where players can thrive both competitively and economically.  NFTs are gaining traction in the gaming world. Some NFTs offer purely cosmetic enhancements, adding visual flair without impacting gameplay. Other NFT assets can potentially influence battle outcomes. Traditional game studios, like Gunzilla Games, are increasingly exploring Web3 and NFT game models. Players are being rewarded for their time and engagement in these new gaming ecosystems.

 

What are 5 great NFT Games to start with?

 

With hundreds of NFT games to dig your nails into, it can be daunting to decide where to start.  Luckily, at PLAYA3ULL GAMES, we’ve compiled some of the most recent and popular games that will give you a taste of the next evolution in video gaming.

 

ORDINEM

 

Ordinem Web3 Game

 

Fresh off a global release, ORDINEM lets you command your combination of the five mythical factions developed by PLAYA3ULL GAMES.  Use your deck of cards to cast spells and summon followers.  It is a Trading Card Game (TCG) that features cards as NFTs and 3ULL coin integration.  ORDINEM is an easy game to set up and play and invites strategic gameplay with your unique deck of NFT cards.  The local in-game currency 3ULL Coin rewards players for participation, and many new updates are planned well into 2025 and beyond.

 

Axie Infinity

Axie Infinity Web3 Game

 

Axie Infinity, developed by Sky Mavis, is a blockchain-based game where players collect, breed, and battle digital pets called Axies. Each Axie is represented as an NFT, granting players true ownership of their in-game assets. These Axies can be battled in a PVP arena or used in other Axie-branded games.  Axie Infinity remains a notable example of integrating blockchain technology with gaming, pioneering new economic models within the industry.  The many setbacks it’s had over its relatively short time online haven’t deterred its popularity, and Axie Infinity is a great game to dive into.
