World’s Largest Decentralized City Building Starts This Summer

Following the huge success of CryptoKitties that saw early adopters earn 10000% interest from their cat acquisitions, a whole number of clones have been released since, aiming to capture the good-fortune of “crypto collectibles”. Just because cats were a revolution, it doesn’t necessarily mean that a dog, fish or a robot version is going to be the next big hit.

What can be the real revolution here is the new age of HTML5 technology games that use Ethereum digital wallet to manage game assets stored on the Ethereum blockchain. That allows for running a fully featured, graphically-rich game inside any browser along with 100% secure and fast-growing ERC-721 tokens.

The first of its kind is a multiplayer strategy game called MegaCryptoPolis that allows to collectively build a world’s largest and unique mega city on the Ethereum blockchain.

Players start to acquire blocks of land on the decentralized city map, which will then allow them to construct a range of building types, such as residential, production and commercial structures. Every block of land, along with buildings that are constructed on it, is an ERC-721 cryptо-tоken that can be transferred or traded like any other cryptocurrency on integrated and external marketplaces.

Hardcoded Price Growth
When someone purchases a spare land block – a smart contract raises the price of the surrounding blocks of land. Part of the purchase price is then distributed amongst block owners in the 7×7 field.

he initial cost for a single block will start from 0.015 ETH, with all blocks being hardcoded to rise up to 7.5 ETH – once all neighboring blocks are sold. This means that buying a block of land inside of a 7×7 field may double your return of Ether after a number of blocks being sold around it.

Buildings Produce Ether
Every action inside the game requires some taxes that are collected and delegated across regional and federal budgets. These are then distributed amongst all players – depending on their share of total influence points produced within a game cycle (24 hours). Players may then withdraw their earnings daily, or whenever they like, in the form of Ether – directly to their Ethereum digital wallet.

Buildings will then begin to generate influence points, depending on what is built around their neighbourhood. For example, residential buildings near a commercial zone will produce much more points than a building that is close to a manufacturing facility – just like in real life. The value of property or land blocks, more often than not depend on location.

It is also important to note that some blocks may possess Ore – the most important resource inside of the game. Owning a block that supplies Ore may produce greater amount of influence points for you without even having a building on it.

District Owner’s Revenue
Players can even acquire whole districts that will then allow them to gain a share of the profits from all blocks within it. Districts are basically the older and larger siblings of blocks that feature on the MegaCryptoPolis game map.

The right to own a district is initially sold during an auction. A district can then be traded freely like any other game asset. District owners have the right to set the price of all blocks in their district’s region, as well as receiving part of the profits that are collected from all land block sales within their district.

Decentralized and Trustless
MegaCryptoPolis is based on a decentralized model, with all in-game transactions verified by open sourced smart contract and all player activities are stored within the Ethereum blockchain. This does not allow developers to affect the game balance in any way after it is launched, as everything is solely determined by the actions of the players themselves.

The MegaCryptoPolis White Paper has a well mapped out and detailed description of all game aspects and rules, including all types of buildings and dependencies – even maths formulas to help make all in-game transactions easy to understand. We highly recommended reading through this.

Bounty Campaign

Automated Bounty Campaign is the only way to get an exclusive land block on the special Bounty Island. Blocks will be distributed randomly amongst all registered users prior to the game starting. All participants involved that help spread the word via social media will increase their chance of receiving rare and valuable crypto-land-tokens.
