This turning into mobile app as well is a big breakthrough in blockchain gaming, maybe there are others but I have never heard of crypto currency used in any mobile game before. That means right now people are playing a game where cryptocurrency is the in game currency and it can be reached by billions of people all around the world, that is not something you can just say "yeah cool" and move on, that is like a new barrier of gaming that didn't exist before these guys came along.

Not sure about Android but for Apple that is the first game ever to be launched on the App store that uses crypto.

I really liked the animation in the video introduction, so I decided to give it a try. I found the background music a bit distracting, but I think it's okay. What is worse is that it takes a lot of time for the website to load after registration. The main page was loading a bit slower than usual as well, but it was not a big problem. When I filled in the details to register, though, the screen just stuck on the loading sign. It's been a couple of minutes now, and it's still loading. I checked my email, and there's no confirmation ling there as well. When I pressed F5, I was signed in already. I tried playing, and I think it was pretty nice, but I wish there was more interaction between monsters!
Good luck!

I've had some loading issues over the last 2 days when trying to open the "Cage" where you can deposit/withdraw your crypto. It used to be near instant but now seems to hang a bit. Hopefully it's just some temporary wrinkle that gets ironed out soon enough

I wanted to ask if there would be a free trial of sorts ? I mean the game looks great but there is no way you can play it for free, maybe a limited way where people could play a part of it while not spending but would require spending for the whole game? Limiting the users with only payers doesn't seem like a good marketing.

Good to know that there is no house edge and also the know that this is one of the first gambling games that can be download from play store and Apple store. When can we have the same games on the browser web and the in App because one may want to to use a single mean to play all games app/browser. And when will you start accepting deposits in other cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin.

Here's an awesome video interview of Devin Seto, head of Block and Chain game studio! More videos to come in the next few days, but this does a nice job explaining the drive behind the team and what they aim to do.

It doesn't work with my browser too.I guess that my browser isn't up to date.
Awesome graphics.I really like the "nasty monsters" style.It's time for the crypto game developers to create more complex games with high quality graphics,people are getting tired of the dice games. Grin
Is your game "probably fair"?You didn't mention this in your thread...

Yes it is! see my comment above yours or here:

I just check on your video but it is keep on loading without playing, please fix it so I can watch your video first then try the game. It is pretty unique but I do not understand how this is play and hoe to determine the winner here. I know it is a pvp based game but how can we win a maximum amount from the other players? It is not so easy to understand as I can say

I just checked the video and it was working just fine for me. there are also other videos on youtube if you just search "blockfight" or you can just check the game out at https://www.blockfight.com

The winner is determined by the blockchain and is provably fair. This excerpt is from Block and chain games website:

Random Number Generation From Hash
Random numbers are generated from a hash string, so that by using the same hash string, the same resulting numbers will be generated in the same order. The hash strings will be retrieved from the block chain using a Halo Platform API call.

How a Hash Generates Numbers
A hash is a string of hexidecimal characters (0-f). By itself, each character is 4 bits of data (value 0-15), but combining characters can produce higher ranges of values. Two characters represent 8 bits (value 0-255), three characters represent 12 bits (0-4095), four characters represents 16 bits (0-65,535).

When a random number is requested we look at the range requested to determine how many bits of data we need to achieve that possible range.

For example, if 1-6 is requested, then we know the range is 6, which is 16 or less. That means we can use a single hex character to determine the returned value. If 1-20 is requested, then the range exceeds 16 but is less than or equal to 256, so we can use two hex characters to determine the return value.

Since the value of the hex characters may exceed the requested range, we use the modulus of the requested range to help in determining the return value. For example, 1-20 is requested, then the range is 20. If the hex value is 30, then the effective hex value is 10.

The output value is adjusted by the minimum requested value to get the final output value. For example, the hex value is always 0 through something, so if 1-20 is requested, then we will first generate 0-19 from the hex value (after modulus), then we add 1 to get a possible value of 1-20.

When the generator has reached the end of the hash string, it loops back around to the start of the same hash. Each time a loop happens, the character index interval is incremented by one, to prevent using the same values over and over in the same order.

For example, let's say we have a 64 character hash, and we're requesting numbers that require 2 hex characters per value. After the first 32 numbers are requested, the next number will be generated from character index 0 and 2 instead of 0 and 1. See the example hash below that marks each used hex digit with a ^ symbol.



Right now it's not PVP, but they did say that is something that they are looking into is an option for PvP fights. Blockfight is a dice game that is similar to etheroll.

Patch notes from the recent update:

Quote
v1.003 (2019-03-12)
- Fixed bug that caused error when turning off visibility of the currency (from settings) that you used while the fight is still in progress.
- The last used dice are now associated with the account instead of the device, preventing confusion about which account owns which dice.
- Added "HOT MATCHUP", where if a matchup is winning more than usual in the last 100 fights, the win % of the last 100 fights is shown instead of the pre-calculated win %.
- Added support for low quality mode on slower devices (automatically enabled if low FPS is detected).
- Display of ties is now more clear that the banked tie amount is added to the total damage when a non-tie is rolled next.

Looks like there was a new update pushed out! I haven't seen the patch notes for it yet but according to discord they have added a feature called  "Hot Matchup", according to the team:

Quote
A hot matchup indicates that in the last 100 fights, the amount of wins are higher than normal, so it's pointing out the increased win % of the recent fights. This is across all players, not just you. In the next update, I plan on adding a UI that lists all the hot matchups to make it easy to find and choose them.

Quote
So far, we've celebrated winners and we've celebrated, uh, less winners. This week's challenge will reward 1 winner AND 1 loser. The player who has either won OR lost the most Ethereum in Blockfight will win a TIER 1 HALO MASTERNODE. The masternode is worth 400,000 HALO, but the daily rewards from it are a gift that keeps on giving!

The competition runs until 9 am PST next Monday morning. No need to post screenshots (but you're welcome to if you want), we have all the information we need as long as you're in our Discord or Telegram community.

So double down on Ethereum this week and come play Blockfight now! https://www.blockfight.com/index.html

This is amazing I saw the game logo and I think this is more interesting rather than other game because in this gambling you can earn eth or someday they will study to develop in playing bitcoin. I think more gambler will encourage to do and play with it because it is looks intersting. I think player will easily understand the game flow. And even in the middle age of player older will perform this play.

Thanks I'll pass the compliments on to the Block and Chain games team! I mean it's not designed to beat Fortnite gaming wise but it's definitely an entertaining way to wager for ETH or Halo, or BTC soon!

It will be good viewing if we use Chrome and it works perfectly in my Chrome browser.
It works now in my extension chrome, but I still have doubt, usually, I didn't download into my extension chrome.
However, I like the game, but the interface is something I don't understand that much. In my own opinion, putting monsters and arena with caves, temples and the frozen tomb is not a very good idea.

People will come into your site to play dice and not to play a game like a common android game you can download on google play.  But let's see what will happen. I like the way the player could have a character and like they are playing with people with a different character you can actually while playing a gambling game. It's like playing an arcade game plus gambling.

They are constantly working on the flow to make it easier for new players to understand. This is of course geared more towards people wanting to score some money, it's just a more fun and interactive version of Etheroll and it's much faster as well. They definitely have to start somewhere. If you want to see a crypto game that's going to attract the masses then check out Decimated that's being built on the Halo platform as well. Also check out their ambitious in game economy as well, it is a MUST read!

I dont know if this is the similar name wayback before or just change its name(correct me if im wrong).

Sad, it doesnt work on Mozilla



Actually it does work on Mozilla! I just got it to work, you have to have Metamask installed first. Then you can play with the free in game currency or with ETH. If you want to play with Halo you'll have to download chrome and the Halo Chrome browser extension.

Maybe he needs to upgrade his Mozilla so he can try the game, but I don't know for sure because I don't use Mozilla Grin
It will be good viewing if we use Chrome and it works perfectly in my Chrome browser.
But I don't want to download the extension, and I hope that there is a way to use another way to join with the site.

There is another way to join, you can login with username/password instead of Halo extension! also you can use metamask if you trust it more, the halo extension only has to be used if you want to play with Halo  Grin
