The blockchain gaming market has seen an exponential boom this year. The rise of Axie Infinity, Plants VS Undead, and countless other blockchain games have paved the way for play-to-earn gaming. One currently emerging game is Splinterlands, and you will want to keep a close eye on it before it booms.

Previously called Steem Monsters, Splinterlands is an innovative NFT game. Whereas most games force you to fight other players for rewards, Splinterlands rewards you with in-game items when facing off against monsters. The game runs on the Hive blockchain, and it is a trading card game at that.

As of this writing, there are over 280 cards to collect. Each card is defined by seven stats: speed, armor, mana cost, and four attacks. You can combine the cards to create synergies within your team and allow your characters to become stronger. Aside from that, you can consider the card’s faction, which in the game are called Splinters.

The game has six factions: Fire, Dragon, Death, Life, Water, and Neutral. The cards are also defined by rarity and their special abilities. It is a complex system, but you can enjoy the game and everything it offers once you figure it out. The game includes various ways to play, such as Quests, Ranked Play, and Tournaments.

Splinterlands is compatible with other blockchains like Tron, Ethereum, and WAX. The game also has its blockchain, which provides better stability. This is important, as no other blockchain game is like this.

How To Start Playing

The good news is that Splintershards is a free-to-play game. However, you might want to consider getting the Summoner’s Spellbook which costs $10. This special item can give you an advantage early in the game.

Just head to the website and register for the game. You can register using your email, but if you have a digital wallet like Metamask, you can connect it with Splinterlands, and you will be good to go.

What Are Splintershards?

Like most blockchain games, Splinterlands has an economy. The governance token in the game is called a Splintershard (SPS). SPS also doubles as a decision-making token which means SPS also has control over asset owners, the player base, and the stakeholders. As SPS tokens are not liquid, they cannot be sold or transferred to another wallet.

SPS tokens are rewarded each month. The amount you get will depend on your achievements for the month. Currently, Ranked Battles are the best way to earn SPS. You can also earn SPS tokens through staking, but to do this, you have to earn SPS tokens naturally first.

Splintershards is still a newcomer to the blockchain gaming scene but holds potential. Gamers are keeping a close eye on the game because of its potential. You might want to jump in and try it out now before it booms like Axie Infinity or other top crypto games in the market.
