Introduction to Land of Prosperity
ONPlay Studio has marked a significant milestone by launching the closed beta of Land of Prosperity on the BNB Chain testnet. This initial phase invites a limited number of players to test the game’s features and provide essential feedback, assisting the developers in refining the game ahead of its wide release.
Gameplay Mechanics
Land of Prosperity creatively combines strategy and blockchain, where each player begins with a unique 16×16 NFT land block. This block forms the basis of their in-game territory, which can be customized extensively through the strategic addition of buildings and other utilities that enhance Point production. These items perform differently based on the type of terrain—whether Tropical, Desert, or Ice—adding a strategic layer to gameplay. The game is also laced with Loot Boxes offering various tiers of land and items and a crucial repair and durability mechanic that demands regular maintenance of assets.
The Closed Beta Experience
The current beta version is open to 50,000 players who can access it by either a whitelist—which offers benefits like receiving a free Land Block of at least Uncommon quality—or through referral links, with these players receiving a Common Block when the game moves to the mainnet. Participants in this beta phase are able to mint a Land Block on the BNB Chain testnet, set up their initial estate, and undertake daily tasks to earn Loot Boxes, which further enhance their land and productivity.
NFT Integration and Trading
Distinctively, the game integrates NFT technology, allowing players to mint their in-game assets and items on the blockchain. This feature not only gives players ownership but also facilitates the trading of these assets on external NFT marketplaces, introducing a real-world economic element to the gaming experience.
Project Goals and Future Updates
This beta stage is crucial for ONPlay Studio to gather insights that will fine-tune Land of Prosperity’s features and in-game balance. The developers place high value on community feedback regarding item designs and gameplay elements. Looking ahead, they plan to integrate real-world weather conditions and daytime effects to mirror players’ real environments in the game, promising a dynamic and immersive strategic gameplay experience.
