What does it mean to play for the sake of making money?
Making money is a new kind of game, and you've stumbled upon one of its greatest pioneers: Gala Games. Thanks to blockchain technology and the power of NFT, players can now truly own their gaming assets in a way they never thought possible.
In the past, online gaming had to lock down players' in-game assets, guaranteeing players, through careful posting of harsh terms of service, that anyone caught attributing real value to items would be severely punished. Gamers have lost countless assets due to these kinds of violations, sometimes unfortunately, they have been banned from playing or blocked an account that has been created for years
Now, a few bold companies like Gala Games are empowering players with games like Town Star, which not only allow players to truly own their assets, but are encouraged to trade them in the secondary markets as often as they wish. ... In some cases, players may even receive rewards for playing with these own items. This is the basis of the game for the sake of making money.
Instead of paying simply to play, players can now pay to unlock and increase their earning opportunities. Town Star makes this incredibly easy to understand and practice, with a clear economics of the game to earn, which will be covered in the following paragraphs.

Some Town Star items are available to everyone in the game at any time. These items only cost play money. This money must be created and fully spent in the game. It is non-transferable and has no real value outside the game. Other items are limited in quantity and may actually be owned by players on an individual basis. These are called blockchain items, or NFTs. These items differ in different ways from in-game items
1.Their number is limited.
2.They can be purchased from the Gala Games store while stocks last.
3.They can be transferred between players.
4.They can be taken out of the game.
5.They can be of real value outside the game.
6.Using them in the game can bring additional rewards. (more on this in the next section)
TownCoin is a token that was created by Gala Games solely as a reward for playing to earn money with the NFT Town Star. Unlike imaginary play money that cannot leave the game, TownCoin is a real cryptocurrency that lives on the blockchain. It can be transferred between players, traded on third party exchanges, or bought and sold on those exchanges.

Basically, players can earn TownCoin rewards when they use NFT items in their Town Star build if certain requirements are met.
Daily Challenges - Daily rewards are “unlocked” when a player completes a daily in-game challenge. Examples of daily tasks might include getting a certain number of stars in 24 hours, delivering a minimum quantity of a certain item, or something similar.
Gala Power - Each player has a level called Gala Power, which is determined (first) by the amount of liquid GALA and TownCoin stored in his player's wallet. This will be changed later to include additional factors such as NFT ownership, account age, and referrals. For each level that Gala Power increases, the player can play 1 additional NFT to earn TownCoin rewards. For example, a player with Gala Power level 1 can earn 1 NFT for placing, and a player with Gala Power 7 can earn TownCoin for placing 7 NFTs.
Season Pass - In each Town Star season (the exact length of the season is not specified), players wishing to earn TownCoin will need to have a ticket - an NFT element called the Season Pass. The Season Pass acts as a key with which the player can earn TownCoin (if other criteria are met) throughout the season.
The NFTs in the Town Star collection have a wide variety of stocks, also known as blockchain rarities. Each NFT earns TownCoin daily in an amount proportional to the rarity of its blockchain. Basically, the rarer an item is, the more TownCoin it will earn on a daily basis when placed in the game.
In the VOX example, NFT avatars sold by Gala Labs, which can also be placed in Town Star for in-game rewards, each VOX placed earns the same daily TownCoin as its rarity currently displayed on RARITY. .Tools .
Other NFTs, such as warehouse buildings of various rarities, bot houses, fountains and resource stands, have individual TownCoin allocations based entirely on the rarity of their blockchain. For more information on how this is calculated, visit the GALA GAMES KNOWLEDGE BASE.
