When I first heard about blockchain games I sort of didn't pay much attention. Then cryptokitties and Steem Monsters were both massive successes, So I decided to investigate the newest game on the block, MyEtherPony. Anyone who is into crypto should be familiar with blockchain games.
Enter MyEtherPony A blockchain digital pet game based on My Little Pony the cartoon with all the creepy adult male followers called pony bros. This game isn't just for neckbearded basement dwellers, its for everyone! Does your daughter want a pony? Well ponies are expensive, crypto ponies are much more affordable!
Game is played with ERC721 tokens on the Ethereum blockchain. Each ERC721 pony is different, and therefore each one could have a much different value. Rewards are given in ERC20 DKL (Dekla) tokens which will have a standard value.
There are a finite number of Generation0 ponies available, though users can breed them in addition to collecting them and trading them. Digital scarcity has proven successful in cryptokitties and steem monsters, and that strategy is also being used here.
This could appeal to a wide variety of people like digital asset collectors, gamers, virtual pet enthusiasts, nerds etc
No identical ponies, each pony has unique abilities and has it's own statistics. Each pony has a unique set of genes making each one different.
You can both trade and breed ponies.
Each pony has an inner power that will not manifest until adulthood. It will be one of: fire, wind, water, thunder, or metal.
Your pony will have a happiness index, so you better take care of it .
There will be a leader board https://myetherpony.io/leaderboard
There will be both group and 1 on 1 competition based game play, messaging, personalisation etc
Too many new coins do nothing new, just another bitcoin clone. Myetherpony offers a reason for users to come back, a game that encourages social interaction and offers real rewards. Getting paid to play games is a dream job to many people. These types of games have so far proven extremely popular. If I were a betting man I would guess this will be popular too...
There are additional rewards for contributions to the community, improve the game and get rewarded.
Pony auctions are safe and transparent, because you don't want your kid getting ripped off by some hacker.
Ponies which are breed will have a blend of each parents genetics, just like real life. It will be impossible to know before breeding what the offspring will be like.
In order to keep the value of ponies high there is an option to turn your pony into a non breeding unicorn. Or a winged Pegasus...
Pony races! And the whole farm economy around raising ponies will be part of the game. The game will also involve everything: care of ponies, competitions, feeding etc.
#Could educate more people on blockchain
Blockchain and the token economy. People can have fun and win rewards. MyEtherPony plays to create a whole ecosystem on the blockchain that users will return to, over and over. If you have kids it could be a great way to introduce them to the blockchain. It also appeals to a pretty wide range of different demographics, and MyEtherPony promises to tailor the experience to the specific user.
