It was just a few days ago when I read about Holozing project for the first time, the upcoming Hive network play2earn game and platform.

From the whitepaper available on the website we can see that this is not just another play2earn project.
HoloZing is a Web3 enabled monster catching, training, and battling game. It draws strong inspiration from classics like Pokémon and World of Warcraft. The game has four unique elements that set it apart from similar games and other web3 games.
Players are not given much information about the monsters they encounter, requiring them to make mid-battle decisions. Players who take the time to watch for patterns, research, and diligently experiment will have an advantage.
.
This feature will make the game very interesting. Because not knowing in advance about the enemies (monsters) we will have to adopt all the time, making battle strategies hard but always fun to play.
There are no many games like this. Web3 games are usually not that easy to start and learn how to play but once you do everything is simple. Actually it's so simple it turns to boring play very fast. This feature will make the game fun to play for a long time. Nice one.
The aspect of Healing and HP management is a central part of the PvE element of the game.
.
So we will not be able to battle all the time, healing will be important aspect of the game. We are yet to see if healing will be time or tokens based or both.
The latest update from the devs gives a little clue into healing process. They announced new game characters: Light, Forest and Ocean healers.
Next we have play-to-own mechanics on Hive blockchain which is refreshing and the move to right direction.
The game’s economy and assets are backed by the robust Hive blockchain and ecosystem, enabling play-to-earn and play-to-own mechanics.
.
The in-game rewards for playing will probably be in Zing token which is already available for purchasing and staking (more about it later).
No team allocation, founder’s share, or pre-mine.
.
Finally one of my favorite promises is this one. No team allocation and founder's share. Majority of the blockchain games have team allocation and in some sense it's ok, but some of them have this ridiculous 20% or more of total tokens supply which is really a rip off.
So in that sense I have to say great move by the team 
Now let's talk about the platform itself.
For now there are several ways to earn Zing token on the platform.
You can stake Zing as first simple method to generate more tokens. Current APR is above 60%.
Second method is Hive Power delegation where APR is around 30%.
Third method for earning Zing is Liquidity Pool where you can provide liquidity in Zing/swap.hive. Current APR is 290% but it was much higher lately and it fluctuates from day to day.
Last method to earn Zing token is by simply holding POSH tokens in your Hive wallet. This is what I tried first just to taste the vibe.
The more I read about the project I was convinced it's a great opportunity and decided to delegate half of my HP to the project. I'm small account so I don't have much only 100 HP delegated but I strongly believe in this project so I have to stand behind it.
I have also started to buy Zing from my liquid Hive as much as I can and stake it in the platform.
That's all for now, not a financial advice and DYOR always but just my humble start with Holozing project.
