Topic: [ANN] Spells of Genesis - Innovating Trading Card Games with the Blockchain (Read 47201 times)

Dear community members thanks for following us in this section of BitcoinTalk.

We also have another thread here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-spells-of-genesis-innovating-the-game-economy-with-bitcrystals-bcy-957797.

You are all welcome to join the discussion there.

There is no point to have 2 threads and it's easier for you to follow us in one place.

This thread is now locked.

1. Are cards only sold as single cards or can booster packs be purchased just like in MtG?
For now we are using the sigle card sale. Selling boosters is the right nature of TCG (for now we use scarcity to define rarity). But selling booster of digital assets could be assimilated as gambling. Even it's the same with physical cards, for now we are cautious.

2. Are all cards limited (at least per edition) or are there some which are not limited?

As for today CNP and Shumai cards are unlimitted. Other are limited, their limitation define their rarity.

3. If I wanted to collect every card existing so far, how may crystals would that potentially cost and what is the equvalent in BTC? Is it feasible?
I don't know it will require some calculation. Moreover it's also possible to get the cards from other people, third party swapbot and DEX trades.


4. I have seen that new cards e.g. Openbazaar are sold at certain times. Are there imtermediaroes that you can hire to get these cards for you in case you don't have time to pick them up?
I think this is a community thing. Someone might pop up and endorse this role.

5. Are there any salesplaces/merchants already? How would I get the cards?
You mean third party (not EverdreamSoft) ? Some people sets their swapbots already you can see this website
www.sogassets.com you can see all offers DEX + Swapbots

6. What is the estimated time the apps come out?

In december you will have work in progress beta available on iOS and Android (if we keep our schedule)

7. Edit: I will have just played the alpha if I can and see what it is like. -What other game does the gameplay compare to? Or is it a truly unique experiance?
We wanted a unique experience but also using ingredient that have proven to work.
Good reference are Puzzle&Dragon and Monster strike (two japanese games that are grossing more than 2 mio USD per day). We wanted to combine RPG/Card game with a nice arcade experience. For the RPG/Card it's very similar to the two previous game. For the arcade part we were inspired by orbital http://www.orbital-game.com/ but we worked a lot the game design and it's now pretty different from Orbital.

Yes we have a news for this. I've decided to unlock the reserve for people who complete the first two levels of the game. This will refrain people who used bot to mass register and it will be less intrusive than SMS validation. The account validation will come next week along with the new alpha version.

See earlier comments, they are currently working on a solution for this.
For now you can buy them on exchanges and swapbots.

He SoG People

i would like to get involved in the game. I have an alpha account and got 70 crystals or at least that is what was promiswd as a sign up bonus. I have never played the alpha but want to soon.

Now I have this very basic questions:

1. Are cards only sold as single cards or can booster packs be purchased just like in MtG?
2. Are all cards limited (at least per edition) or are there some which are not limited?
3. If I wanted to collect every card existing so far, how may crystals would that potentially cost and what is the equvalent in BTC? Is it feasible?
4. I have seen that new cards e.g. Openbazaar are sold at certain times. Are there imtermediaroes that you can hire to get these cards for you in case you don't have time to pick them up?
5. Are there any salesplaces/merchants already? How would I get the cards?
6. What is the estimated time the apps come out?
7. Edit: I will have just played the alpha if I can and see what it is like. -What other game does the gameplay compare to? Or is it a truly unique experiance?
8. Anything else I need to know?

Sorry for all the questions but I am curious and would love to get involved.

Last question. There was another trading card game blockchain based. I cant find the site any longer. Did it rebrand to SoG or did the project die? Edit: found it, called Deckbound.

I created a swapbot to sell some of my spare Cards.
Currently it still holds 3x RIPPLECARD, I plan to put some other "hard" to get cards in there during the next week.
I will also sell 1 FDCARD through Auction or Swapbot later next week.

Hi anybody can guide me to withdraw BitCrystals from http://www.spellsofgenesis.com/ to my Counterwallet. I got 470 BitCrystals from Treasure Hunt event on Twitter but I don't know to withdraw it from website. Thank you.

I actually got in early enough to get 135 BCY iirc
haven't really checked lol

Yep I definitely agree to some sort of verification, SMS sounds good.

Guys don't give in, take your time to find them out.

BTW if you are not someone who mass registered how on hearth are you waiting for 70 BCY which are worth right now: 0.00455 BTC?

Get on Poloniex and buy some while they are cheap! 

Good point Maybe you should only allow phone verifying to ensure they will only have one

Hey guys !

We are working on it ! As I speak. Please be patient it will come. We are setting up some filters for people who mass registered.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

??

someone can share link to this news?

Team SoG should answer this question, it's a pretty big thing that the team promised, cuz as of now we can't even use it yet haha.
