Arcades At Home: Joystick Club and JoyBots smartBCH NFTs
SmartBCH is currently a hub for new Web3 developments, with gaming platforms becoming a priority for developers working with smart contracts, utilizing the smartBCH high throughput to their advantage. Blockchain gaming is a rapidly growing field, especially with the recent rise of interest in NFT technology. Joystick Club is a Bitcoin Cash-themed gaming platform offering a play-to-earn gaming experience. Joystick Club is a platform that constantly evolves, and I revisited it recently to check progress with upgrades and developments. The platform offers a user-friendly approach with arcade gaming and token rewards for gamers. Joystick Club has also released an NFT collection (Joybots) offering extra incentives to the holders of NFTs. Joybots find a solid use case inside the Joystick Club gaming platform.
The concept of Joystick Club Joystic Club delivers entertainment and a chance for everyone to earn JOY tokens depending on gaming skills, as precision and reflexes are the core of every arcade game. https://smart.joystick.club/ The platform combines blockchain and Web3 elements with a coin-op arcade feeling presenting a unique platform for gamers. Hardcore gamers can focus on high scores and leaderboards and achieve profit. JoyBot NFTs & Joystick Club Games The JoyBot NFT mint phase is active with 829 NFTs sold so far from a total pool of 10,000.
To mint a Joybot NFT, we require 500 JOY tokens, although there is no option with a fixed amount of BCH for the minting process. Playing the games rewards users with Joystick tokens providing a clear utility case for the Joystick token, while there is also a staking option for NFTs available on the website. Reward Multipliers A restructure of the monetization of gaming rewards according to a new announcement on the project's telegram: *Max Reward with* ***2 Joybots: $0.60*** *Max Reward with* ***1 Joybot: $0.37*** *Max Reward* ***without*** *Joybot:* ***$0.3125*** *Minimum Reward with Joybot:* ***$0.1875*** *Minium Reward without Joybot:* ***$0.125***
Price of $JOY exploded while I was writing this review.
The $JOY token has a fixed supply of 4million tokens. JOY token was initially released in SLP, although the team migrated most of the tokens to smartBCH as SEP20. The cost of minting a single Joybot is 500 JOY tokens. In BCH terms minting one NFT currently costs 0.22BCH.
The cost of minting 2 Joybots is currently at 0.446 BCH, so I decided not to mint any NFT. Although on OASIS, Joybot NFTs are trading at a discount, and collectors or gamers can still purchase at a BCH price that is ~50% lower than the mint.
Joystick Club offers staking on the platform with rewards in Points ($PTS) tokens. https://www.marketcap.cash/token/PTS
The Joystick Club Games
Joystic Club currently offers nine arcade games. https://smart.joystick.club/index.php I am interested in entertaining games. Joystick club succeeded in this, as most games on this platform contain exciting gameplay. https://smart.joystick.club/index.php The platform hosts various arcade games, most are simple to understand and easy to begin, with no instructions needed. I haven't calibrated my mouse for gaming precision and didn't try to beat these games, although I may try again later. I proceeded with no Joybots and no multiplier for this review paying $0.25 in BCH for each game. Just like in the old arcade rooms! Hoops
The first game I tried was Hoops. I paid $0.25 in BCH to start the game, scored a few points, and got rewarded with 1.3 JOY! I was terrible in the game, lacked precision, and didn't make it to the high scores. Still, I received a reward equal to $0.18 in JOY tokens, so the loss wasn't significant but only a small portion of the initial $0.25 (in BCH) SmartBlaster is a Blast!
I like scrolling shooter games, and SmartBlaster offers the same gaming experience as other similar top games. I paid again $0.25 for the game and my reward for reaching level-2 of the game was 1.25 JOY which brings me a loss of $0.075. With time anyone that remembers the patterns can become good at this game and reach higher stages with better rewards. Most arcade games have a learning curve, and users improve as they become experienced. HoneyComb
HoneyComb is a truly addicting game that I will revisit during idle time. Players score points as they fit the cubes and create lines in the comb. I've tried more games, like "Block Breaker", an Arcanoid clone, but perhaps I will have to recalibrate my mouse for gaming, as it wasn't responding properly.
(dashboard) https://smart.joystick.club/dashboard.php Considering play-to-earn I didn't earn, as I didn't play to earn this time, but I didn't lose anything significant either. I had some fun time and also think it is easy for gamers with enough time at their disposal to get accustomed to some games mechanics and manage to be profitable, and also have a fun time.
In Conclusion
The website feels like an arcade room, adding to the general experience. Gamers that will utilize the platform's full potential will certainly find a meaningful approach. The Joybot NFTs contain original art and combine well with the platform's feeling. The project has a partnership with Bitcoin.com, which features Joystick Club on its mobile wallet. Perhaps the recent rise of the price of JOY should have been expected, as we should be expecting the price of Bitcoin Cash to find support at a new level, way above the $350 range in the future. With all these developments in Bitcoin Cash and smartBCH, the price will inevitably follow. Joystic Club offers gaming entertainment and a play-to-earn system with an attractive approach. Most questions newbies have are answered in the detailed FAQ on the website. https://smart.joystick.club/faq.php Joybot NFTs can still be minted in the Joystick platform for 1000 JOY or traded on OASIS. Players can test the games without a JoyBot NFT, although the rewards are better while holding two NFTs in the smartBCH wallet we use to log in. We can find the rarity of NFTs at NFTRarity.cash. https://prizes.joystick.club/mint https://oasis.cash/collection/0xbec69e04e99e21210213405E0fe99b95c040BD74 https://smart.joystick.club/index.php https://nftrarity.cash/nft/joybots The project also offers an interesting roadmap with big plans ahead. https://smart.joystick.club/roadmap.php Overall, I had a good time playing arcade games and find Joystick Club a positive addition to Bitcoin Cash and smartBCH developments. **Useful links:** Website https://smart.joystick.club/ Games List https://smart.joystick.club/index.php Roadmap https://smart.joystick.club/roadmap.php FAQ https://smart.joystick.club/faq.php Mint Joybot NFTs https://prizes.joystick.club/mint Trade Joybots on OASIS https://oasis.cash/collection/0xbec69e04e99e21210213405E0fe99b95c040BD74 NFT Rarity https://nftrarity.cash/nft/joybots Staking Joybot NFTs https://prizes.joystick.club/staking Twitter https://twitter.com/joystickclub Telegram https://t.me/joystickclub

Soon we can see that dear Pantera are earning good by playing this game.Waiting for see this in your article dear.Best of luck to you❤️
I lost hope in the project cause the joy bot minting fee is really much and I went for other projects.
Joystick becoming one of the successful tokens in SmartBCH.. sadly I sold mine so early haha. I'd like to play it but no time anymore..
Got no time either but I will keep playing the games when I find. I think I could achieve some high scores in a few of them.
As long as you enjoy the game and gives you something in return that's all that matters.
Just sold some to take my investment back 🤣..
Are those games needed laptop or computer to play? Is there any way to play those without deposits or investments, I mean free to play or earn! Well, the Hoops is looks hard because I have tried similar like that on my phone but I think the Smart blaster will be fun and the Honey Combs looks hard because tgere is counter.
I'm not into gaming that much. Moreover, i don't have much time to play game or do some other things. However, i minted one joybot back when the price was cheaper and recently lend it out to someone to play game with.
Woah now this article made my day!, I was expected that you are gonna be wrote Article about joy bot and now? This is it. Fore more info. This day the value of joy stick now are currently increase and I am totally got my quota now.
Thanks. I'm glad you liked it.
I minted some joybot back then when it was cheap and sold few weeks when the price rises,glad I made some profit from it though and seeing the price of joy skyrocketing is good, would have hold my joybot till this moment when it it now costly to mint one,but anyways I made some gains.
I don't judge your trades! I support BCH above anything else. Sadly, the price is susceptible to BTC whales and exchange manipulation, but with rise in adoption, it will overcome any obstacle.
"Joy Stick, Joy Bot, Hoops" these words are new to me, maybe because I'm also new to the discovery of cryptocurrencies. I think I still don't know a lot about that kind of thing. It such an interesting thing and I want to learn and understand more about it. thank you very much for this very important information pantera
very entertaining and very educational
I have no regret that I am not playing the games but not owning one of the joybot NFTs when I should have done hurts. It is a beautiful project and owning one for staking purposes would be great and I am looking forward to having a play-to-earn football games where footballers would be sold as NFT before you can have them in your team.
I was shocked really to see the price of Joy Token explode and it's good news too. I've never tried the hoops. I've been sticking to the one that gives me consistent high score which is Mama Cat. I think you should try it. You have 5 lives and you get to play for longer periods which gives you more chances to get more Joy Tokens in return.
