Why We're Doing This

Syndicate Protocol is a solo-built, Hive-native crime syndicate RPG — crews, territory, missions, and an on-chain economy, no different wallet or ecosystem required if you're already playing Splinterlands. We wanted a way to put the game in front of players who already get what building on Hive is about.

This is the first of what we're planning as a recurring series of community tournaments and contests.

What Is Syndicate Protocol?

If you've spent any time in Splinterlands, you already know the appeal of a game where your assets are actually yours, on-chain, tradable, and yours to keep building on. Syndicate Protocol takes that same philosophy and points it at a different genre: a dark, gritty crime syndicate RPG where you build a crew, seize territory, and run the streets — all secured on Hive.

The core loop:

Build a Crew — Recruit and level up crew members, each with their own class, traits, and combat role. Think of it as your roster of specialists — the muscle, the fixers, the earners.
Claim Territory (Turf) — Turf plots are on-chain land NFTs (capped at 2,500 total) that generate resources and unlock crafting. Every plot you control is a foothold in the world.
Run Missions — Send your crew out on missions to earn resources, collectibles, our in-game coin.
Our next game mode will be SYNX farming Missions with crews raiding TRUF missions, burning collectibles for efficiency bonuses, and going toe-to-toe with named bosses in turn-based combat.
Gear Up — A full equipment system (Weapon, Armor, Accessory, Relic) with tiered NFTs and unique passive abilities will let you build out combat strategies as deep as your crew composition.
Work the Economy — SYNX has a hard-capped supply and a real, on-chain distribution model: mission rewards, a weekly leaderboard, community contests, and a liquidity pool already live on Hive Engine.

Visual style: dark navy and gold, mafia-noir aesthetic — if you like the tone of a heist movie more than a fantasy epic, this is built for you.

We're still early — Turf has just opened, Farming Missions is rolling out soon, and equipment NFTs are next on the roadmap — which means players who get in now are getting in at the ground floor, not walking into the early gameplay and enjoy the experience.

Join the Tournament

Good luck out there, and welcome to the Syndicate.
