Blockchain Brawlers is a flagship project of WAX Studios. It is a game where quirky, funny, rowdy, weird NFT wrestlers fight with each other in brawls. So, the winner earns the reward; the game token Brawlers $BRWL. Moreover, it is the first wrestling-themed NFT game on the blockchain technology platform. The players can buy the NFT wrestlers and equip them with equipment from the World Assets eXchange (WAX) with $BRWL to fight in the matches against other wrestlers. Blockchain Brawlers tokenomics showed promising signs early on. The BRWL token showed a drastic increase in value of over 150% in the month of May 2022 which is only 1 month after the game’s release on 30th March. It is because 2000 new unique wallets were activated in connection to the WAX platform of the game. Blockchain Brawlers Gameplay: Players need a wrestling ring and a brawler to start playing the game. There are various kinds of these arenas and wrestlers that are available for a price to the players. Moreover, the prices are different depending on their rarity. However, the game has a huge floor price of at least $6000 to buy a ring and a wrestler which critics claim to be a “digital serfdom”. Therefore, many players who aren't affluent enough have the option to rent the ring and the brawler. Apart from buying the brawlers, the players can create their own brawlers through different items which require more time and skill, and definitely more BRWL tokens. If a player doesn’t have enough BRWL tokens, they can be purchased from the secondary marketplaces of WAX like the Atomic Hub. The game economy is simple: create brawlers, train them, equip them, fight them, and earn.

Game developers Ex Populus have partnered with world boxing champion Mike Tyson to release 10,000 unique Iron Pigeons NFTs featuring a pigeon design in iron. The Iron Pigeons, developed by Ex Populus in collaboration with Mike Tyson, will be featured in a card game based on the Solana blockchain technology. Each Iron Pigeon NFT will have a unique combination of traits that determine its rarity and value in the game's economy. These traits include 12 backgrounds, 9 beaks, 37 bodies, 66 costumes, 4 details, and 20 eyes. The rarity of a card will affect its value in the marketplace and its power in the card game. All cards will also be integrated into the ever-expanding Iron Pigeon metaverse. The Iron Pigeon cards will be randomly generated using an algorithm that incorporates a set of traits and designs created by award-winning artists. Each card will include a high-resolution image of the game design and a trading card, linked through a web link. Like traditional card games, players will be able to trade and battle with their Iron Pigeon character cards. The strength of each Iron Pigeon card will be determined based on its various traits and features. These cards will be featured in the XPTCG, a card game being developed by Ex Populus that is expected to become a major player in the Web3 universe.

Gas Hero is an upcoming MMO developed by the acclaimed Find Satoshi Lab (FSL) team, known for their successful walk-to-earn game Stepn. This new game offers an action-packed battle experience set in a post-apocalyptic world devastated by artificial intelligence. Gas Hero combines elements of strategy, decentralization, and community interaction. To mark its announcement, FSL has launched a user-driven content contest with a substantial prize pool of $431,400. Central to Gas Hero's design is decentralization, evident through in-game community voting, asset trading using the $GMT token, and a decentralized marketplace. Building on the success of Stepn, FSL brings innovation to Gas Hero, creating a Web3 game where players navigate a desolate world, construct virtual bases, and engage in battles with other players. The game places a strong emphasis on community involvement, aiming to create an immersive and interactive gaming environment. The Gas Hero contest represents a transformation in Web3 gaming, involving players in the creative process prior to the game's launch. FSL's approach seeks to expand the game's audience and foster a sense of community within the Web3 domain. The game's backstory is set in a post-apocalyptic world where AI and quantum computing have led to global devastation. Operation Spark, a network of hidden labs, emerges as humanity's hope for survival through cloning technology. From these labs arise the "Gas Heroes," named after the life-giving gas within the sanctuaries. Players navigate hazardous landscapes and engage in battles as they embark on a journey of rebirth and discovery. Gas Hero's gameplay features an automated combat system requiring players to arrange their battle lineup before entering conflicts. Each hero has a unique codename, equipped weapons, and pets. A vertical action bar triggers attacks or special skills, while a horizontal rage bar boosts recharge speed. Hero skills, primary attributes (Attack, Defense, HP, SP, Speed), and tokenomics play crucial roles in battles and strategy. The game's token, $GMT, is integrated into Gas Hero's development and launch. The game introduces a marketplace and empowers players through decentralized decision-making and voting mechanisms. This innovative approach aims to create an engaging and immersive gaming experience within the Web3 framework.
