Project goalWe want to establish a high-end board games publishing studio, using a blockchain-based funding to break the traditional board games funding cycle, relying to Kickstarter or corporate funding. We will still use Kickstarter for profit and marketing purposes, as there is no better marketing tool available, but we would not depend on it. In order to ensure higher profits for the token owners and long-term funding for our game line, we will make a partial investment in a mining farm and offer shared profit from the moment it starts working (for 24 months at its full power or equivalent at lower processing power).
Board gamesBLOCKCHAIN: THE CRYPTOCURRENCY BOARD GAME is the first high-end strategy game involving the cryptocurrency mining process and investment. The game features:
- 1-5 player competitive gameplay
- Under 90 minutes play time
- 85* coins for mining
- 15* ICOs/TOKENS
- 25 algorithms
- Hardware ranging from a single CPU to mining rigs and ASICS
- Small share of exchange mechanisms are in the base game
* Numbers may vary because of KS stretch goals and paid additions
** Missing currencies may be added upon request for a fee
There are four planned expansions for the base game, featuring additional mechanics, market updates, new cryptocurrencies, new hardware and rig upgrades. The expansions will add exchanges, mining farms and forks, and the final expansion will introduce complete revamp of the gameplay mechanics.
* More expansions may be released depending on product success
We have one game nearly ready to be published (in beta test soon) - Primewarp: Genesis is a post-cyberpunk PvP/PvE game, mixing realistic sci-fi and dark fantasy in a narrative story, and featuring some unique, never seen before gameplay mechanics. The game is massive, with 18 map tiles, over 600 cards, 15+ different great models sculpted by Francesco Orrù (total number of miniatures TBA).
Our plans also include two more AAA games that would be announced closer to completion. Both of them will receive lots of attention by the hobbyists. Every game we publish will be kickstarted in order to gain a maximum marketing value of each new project.
Our plan to make Cryptum Tokens profitable for youCryptum tokens are basically a subscription for our future games (with artifical inflation of the required number of tokens based on tiers). On top of that you can claim a part of each new game profit based on your token ownership (details announced separately) and initial amount of our upcoming Cryptumcoin (TBA).
- They are not cheap to begin with: 0.02 ETH / 0.00135 BTC per CRTM token
- Every 25/35/65/100+ tokens you own can give you free access to different package of games
- We do not exchange your tokens in order to give you free games. We only check if you own them
- The number of tokens you have to own becomes higher for access to more games
- You get free cryptocoins [CRYC] once the coin is launched (1 CRTM = ? CRYC)
- We share 20% from the profits of the first board game line and up to 40% from other games
- The shared profits gets higher for games with larger profit later on the line
Cryptumcoin [CRYC]We would release a new crypocurrency initially accessible to all token holders.
- ASIC-proof
- GPU-only mineable
- Value-bind
- Secure
- User friendly software (wallets and miners)
- Anti-instamineable via small initial blocks
- Highly-prospective, based on the number of coins mined and periodically halving of amount mined
- Free coins for token holders
- Airdrops to top holders
- Accessible on a wide range of exchanges
- Planned to be accepted as a payment method for our board game project

For the Primewarp game development you can check
Cute Lizard's page, the 3D sculpts are being pushed even now (albeit at a slower rate as we have to pay for each of them, and right now there is a conflict of interest between paying sculpts and paying for Cryptum advertisement, one of my big rants), the art is 100% done and paid to Nicolas Nexz (and much of it is on the page), but we don't have final layouts, and considering there are over 500 cards, this will take a while. Then there is half the boards to be finished, we have the basic layouts from the artist that worked on them, but all the details and lighting on 9 of the steampunk-ish tiles and on one of the sci-fi tiles are not added yet - again, because its a full time job, and right now it's lower on the priorities list.
About the Blockchain game - the graphics are the last thing to come to the game (after all, they depend on the ICO), so no pictures. Below are the lists of algos and coins included so far, mind you - we will probably add more as stretch goals during the KS campaign. In fact I will compile an article and put it on the website, none of us considered it that important, testing mechanics and rules doesn't require that information (we have just numbers there) and it's considered part of the final workings, and some of them might change, considering there will be some changes on the market by the time the game enters more active development.
Of course, right now we are mostly concentrated on the sale, listings and so on, considering the game depends on its result. If the funds are low at the end of the sale we may consider pushing Primewarp to top priority, as it's in later stage of development, and the funds it would generate would pay for the work on the Blockchain. Ofc, this is just theorycrafting...

Included
Reserved
Remember, new coins can be added later via KS stretch goals, social votes or by paid service:
- 0.5 BTC fee (if the algorithm is already included): includes a set of cards representing your cryptocurrency and simulating solo and pool mining, coin evaluation for the purposes of in-game profit in comparison with other currencies included in the game;
- 1.0 BTC (if the algorithm is already included in the game): includes all of the above plus a stretch goal during the Kickstarter campaign, auto-inclusion in any expansions we release afterwards, and a mention whenever we publish information about the game;
- 1.5 BTC (even if your algorithm is not included): all of the above, but we will include a new algorithm in the game and we will make sure it's featured in one of the expansions descriptions.
-
Only during the Cryptum ICO stage I or II sales: by purchasing CRTM for as much as one of the above options during the sale. This way you keep your CRTM and their features.
