Hello friends of Arcade Colony 💜
If you already know Splinterlands, which is my favorite game, then you should also know Genesis League Sports (GLS), which is the sports project that was created by the same expert team. Although I don't really know much about soccer, it's interesting to have this type of game, and perhaps we have users who are interested in it, so I'm here to bring you a guide about this game.
Genesis League Sports (GLS) It is a "Play2Earn" gaming platform and ecosystem based on blockchain and specifically designed for sports-related games and NFTs (soccer and MLS). This project was announced with great enthusiasm by the same team that developed Splinterlands, and although they eventually split up, this project is still alive and playable, so it is worth exploring how it works.
The first game launched on the Genesis League Sports platform is a soccer game called Genesis League Goals (GLG). GLS seeks to create a decentralized gaming ecosystem that gives players true ownership of digital assets, as well as a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) that will give them governance control over many aspects of the platform, which is very important in this type of game, as giving the community the opportunity to intervene supports decentralization.
Development: Genesis League Goals (GLG) and Registration on Hive
What is Genesis League Goals?
GLG is a fast-paced soccer strategy and tactics game. Imagine you are the coach and the collector:
We could view Genesis League Goals as a professional soccer team built within a digital stadium (Hive). The Hive Keychain is the master key to securely enter the stadium. The game allows you to be both the owner of your players (NFTs) and the coach who improves their skills, and the GLX coin is the token that allows you to participate in league decisions, ensuring that your playing time is not wasted but becomes a long-term digital investment, which brings a number of general aspects that complement the gameplay and the system.
In GLG, two players face off in short-cycle, one-on-one gaming sessions. The core mechanics involve:
- Collecting your favorite MLSPA player cards.
- Build your equipment.
- Compete in turn-based games to obtain the winning score.
A distinctive feature of GLG is that players have the ability to increase the value of their NFTs by leveling up their player cards using equipment and skill components, thereby maximizing the effectiveness of their teams. The governance token for the entire GLS platform is GLX (Genesis League Governance Token).
The gameplay is quite simple and not very complex, so if you want a fast-paced, immersive game, and you think you have what it takes to lead a digital team and manage your players (cards) perfectly, this game is for you.
Essential Tool: Hive Keychain
One of the best things about playing on the Hive blockchain is its simplicity. With just one account and Hive Keychain, you're ready to use it everywhere.
Hive Keychain is a secure login application that functions as your digital master key. It is highly recommended for keeping your Hive passwords secure while interacting with games and other sites. It is truly one of the best tools created in this ecosystem, and thanks to it, you can play without any inconvenience.
Registration Process (For Existing Hive Members)
If you already have a Hive account (perhaps you play Splinterlands, use Ecency, or are familiar with other projects), joining GLG is very easy.
Steps for registration:
- Go to the Genesis League Sports or Genesis League Goals website.
- Look for the Login button in the upper right corner.
- You will be taken to a simple registration page (although some users find this initial page a little confusing, it is easy to get used to).
- Click Register.
- Scroll down and select Authenticate with Keychain.
- Enter your email address and Hive username.
- Accept the Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
- Use the Keychain button to confirm. You will receive a verification email. Done.
If you need help with GLG or GLS, the platform has a dedicated section, accessible by clicking on the Help link at the bottom of the home page, where you will find lots of information designed to make your stay a welcoming experience. So, if you feel lost, don't worry, it will be very easy to learn. Even I, who know nothing about soccer, understand it.
Conclusion
While other Hive games, such as card games (Splinterlands) or arcade-style games (Moonkarts, Stakehouse Den, which are part of the growing community), may currently have more visibility, Genesis League Goals was the first to bring Splinterlands' ambition to the world of sports.
Joining now allows you to experience a fun tactical game and, most importantly, start collecting digital assets that truly belong to you. The example of Splinterlands shows that players who joined years ago and grew day by day now have large accounts and rare cards with high value. Who knows what your GLG cards will be worth in a few years?
To begin with, you will probably need to visit the market to purchase some cards or a pack, so get going.
