You know, I remember that during the craze of NFT games. You'd see games that have bad graphics but at first has been in demand because of the rewards they give to their player investors. That's the thing for them during that time and the quality was terrible and I don't know if those type of games are still existing nowadays or they've probably already sinked together with the bear market after that craze.
I think we can't even call those things games. They were just static, dumb point and click websites worse than browser games from the beginning of 2000's. These websites you mentioned were developed by scammers who never had legit intentions of creating real games, since those platforms worked on the same concept of Ponzi schemes, where early investors were able to make huge profit in short time intervails, but the ones coming late just lost money, and the demand for the site went to zero right after.

But thinking about old 2000's browser games, I think it could be an idea blockchain gaming developers to try introducing again on the internet. Maybe real time city building games such as Travian, Tribal Wars, Ikariam, Grepolis could work nicely giving players the chance of earning money from it, while also investing money on it to grow their cities and empires through a cryptocurrency. In fact, developers don't even need to create a native token. If they just adopted Bitcoin, it would be great already.
Well, they try to make it as a game because you can click, move, etc. And you're right that they're just making it as if a game but the system for their reward is like a ponzi scheme. These developers are clever but good thing when the bear market has arrived, many of them have been stopped and didn't do well anymore. By that means, most of them have probably sold already their tokens and left the players so sad with a lot of losses having that faith with their development.

Yeah, we're on the same page with that. We both enjoy games that don't have monetary rewards but if there are games that are seem to be really interesting and profitable then we're going to be there as well. The genre of games never gets old to me that I truly like but if the gameplay sucks, I stop playing them.
Yes it must be so, maybe all gamers especially online prioritize the quality of the gameplay, the most important thing for me is to feel satisfied with their offerings to me as a player.

But i haven't found a good blockchain-based game yet, have you ever found a good game from it?
Before but it was a bad experience and I don't think that I'll be looking for one atm.

Yes, i mean like that, the in-game design is like you said, but for the marketing design, they will definitely put more effort to make potential investors interested in joining them.
That's true and we both agree with that.

That is fine, I am done with them and I've went back to the traditional games that I just enjoy even having no rewards or tokens on the side.
Well if we're talking like that I guess we agree, i also enjoy games that don't have prizes but are interesting to enjoy like challenging meta games.

Typically, the blockchain gaming has been there I think since the ICO days but didn't got that much attention until 2021 bull run came. I think most of them were done because many of those have been designed poorly and mainly focused on its economy and money making. If games soon are going to rise like these RPGs, first person shooter games like COD, world war battles, this genre is widely known and liked by many gamers. But even with that, I just think that having the title for this gaming to rise, it's done long time ago.
It is certain that the name of the game design has been done for a long time and they prepare a strategy so that the game sells well in the market, with various ways definitely done
You don't understand what I said there, many of them have been poorly designed and when the craze of these NFT games or P2E games there have been a lot of devs that just developed what they have to develop in the sense so that they can cope up with the demand and try their luck to get as much investors as they can while waiting for the bull run to end during that time.
Yes, i mean like that, the in-game design is like you said, but for the marketing design, they will definitely put more effort to make potential investors interested in joining them.

for me I am not so interested in it even though they provide prizes for those who participate.

Cryptocurrency games might take over fiat currencies gaming just that most of the developed countries casinos are still accepting dollar and other fiat currencies. But cryptocurrency games are on the rise vey well that almost everyone in the forum who are conscious of gambling, knows how to play with crypto casinos. Though many people don't know how to play with crypto casinos and they can only use to local currency games

But anyone who can play cryptocurrency that person can also play with fiat currencies.

The traditional gaming industry took a loss in the last year so they were looking for a breathing space for the industry. Online gaming is already a big industry and heavily centralized, but the use of web3 will make it easier for gamers and creators to distribute revenue to the whole industry rather than some top players. There are a lot of ways blockchain gaming boosted the the two respective industry and i think web3 gaming is the future of gamefi and the online gamers.
Probably due to the p2e games that launches during rhe pandemic and people need some sort of cash and the idea of play to earn was born. Of course some players will likely to play game based on their nature but with the compensation they could get from playing? Of course thats a done deal. This somehow shifted some gamers to those kind. So blockchain gaming is indeed got a future, but some hate it due to ruining the traditional games perspective.

There are many screenshots of the cards on the website as well. But if they keep insisting on financial speculation, instead of showing some solid gameplay, their success chances decrease considerably, as it will be seen solely as a greedy project ran to milk money from the community, instead of delivering entertaining content. People have to feel passionated about the game's mechanisms, just like players felt for Axie Infinity back then, especially the asian community who developed a deep bond with the game for a while, probably due to their cartoon's culture like Pokemon and similars.
It actually shows a sign of grift and that they mostly only care about the token prices rather than the actual game itself. It's either a scam, or really really bad decision making from the team.

this is a task for all crypto game Developers, they really have to pay attention to how the game works and how it can earn. Apart from that, the game also has to be good and not just a game like most of the ones that have been launched. Some users only care about the token price, but when they see the potential of P2E in games they will start putting money into the game and this will continue. Now crypto games are starting to develop again and this will become a new phenomenon because it is equipped with more sophisticated capabilities with the help of AI and others.

If you take gaming platforms, you can take Fairspin as an example, I liked their tournaments. But in general their team managed to create a good eco-system, where everything is intuitively simple and I respect such projects, where they think about people and create convenience for them

Yes, Axie Infinity was actually the pioneer in blockchain games niche to become an overwhelming success during the last bull run of 2021. The hype lasted for a while and many investors were able to recover their initial investments with a great profit margin. However, it doesn't prevent this WW2 game becoming a hot topic inside the niche this time... It will really depend on how much money is going to be injected on this project.
As far as I know Gods Unchained was the first; it's just that Axie Infinity is the first that actually gained mass popularity.

What I read in the earlier replies about the blockchain gaming hype starting with Axie Infinity is correct. When it peaked, many indeed earned and benefited from it. Because of this, many tried to emulate its success, but most were not successful because their main goal was to take the money of investors and players. They engaged in rug pull activities.

I tried searching for the game you mentioned, OP. I am familiar with the concept and genre of the game because I have played similar games before. I will try to play this when I have spare time to see if it's good and if I like it.

Early birds of Axie Infinity are the ones who made a lot of money but when it became popular, especially during times of the pandemic when people are at home looking for a way to make money at home, Axie Infinity is a platform that came at the right time, and the hype brings a lot of users and investors, but like a Ponzi Scheme when the flow of money stalled the admins have to change the rule and stop money from coming out because there is more money coming out than coming in.

Axie Infinity is a lesson in blockchain gaming that has gone wrong, people are there to make money not just to play and enjoy the games, more games came but it carries the same formula as Axie Infinity, the players need to invest and pour money, and limit their cash out, if they cannot do that the game will be doom lets see if this new wave of blockchain gaming offers a different plan that will benefit the platform and the players.

The rise of blockchain gaming is again considering the things that people once wanted to survive, currently there are a lot of blockchain gaming projects, and of course some of them are definitely booming.
but most of them use mobile phones, and are not computer based, because the market also knows that mobile is more popular nowadays than gaming pc, because mobile is more efficient.

which basically means every single thing you own in the game is actually yours. Like, you can trade your tanks, soldiers, and weapons with other players because they're tokenized as NFTs. It's insane!
Isn't this same fo almost every other web3 game? every character, and in game items are NFTs that you have to buy them spending real cash and play the game.
Unless the game have a proper Play2Earn feature and it is possible to get to ROI on time, I don't see any point of spending money on that game.
and BTW. there are tons of Battle Related Card games. that's nothing unique at all.
Game itself doesn't sound bad. I would've given it a try if it was a free game or even a one time purchase.

What I observed about blockchain gaming refers to the phenomenon of more and more players adopting blockchain technology to gain benefits such as in-game asset ownership, secure transactions and a decentralized economy.
allowing players to have full control over their virtual assets and even earn from playing games
well that's usually what the gaming world likes even I myself like it.

but based on market analysis, the play to earn concept is not very healthy for the game itself, unless there is a new breakthrough, which prevents this concept from being a game killer.
I think game developers have now seen how games boom in 2021 and die in 2022, apart from the fact that the bull market is gone by then, getting tokens and selling them continuously makes the price die.

So uh, how many times is blockchain gaming going to rise? There's been tens, if not hundreds of these types of games really, and nothing really actually lasted. They all just, died down really. I think the most hyped this community was back when Axie started it, or at least when it was at its peak. Those times were what I would call the "Rise", which just as quickly fell really, but I'd say a lot of people actually profited from it. Nowadays? Nothing.

Looking at the site I don't really think there's anything "unique" about it from other card-based games in general. It's a WW2 theme but that's it. Man I wish they started trying to make a game properly instead of, well, stuff like this.

As the convergence of blockchain technology and gaming reshapes the landscape of virtual experiences, it is crucial to deliberate on the economic models governing these ecosystems. Unlike the prevalent fast-win or lose strategies, building a sustainable blockchain gaming ecosystem requires a meticulous approach that prioritizes long-term engagement and community growth.

Creating a thriving ecosystem begins with a commitment to fostering a sense of community and longevity within the gaming platform. Instead of focusing solely on short-term gains, developers should adopt strategies that incentivize continuous participation and value creation.
