Pixels Online: A P2E MMO with real utility
Are you a fan of Stardew Valley? Do you remember the good ol' days of Farmville?
If you said yes to any of these questions, I might just have the right NFT for you!
Say hello to Pixels Online, a playable P2E MMO that is doing things a bit differently from other land-based P2E NFT games.
I was first intrigued by this project via this tweet from @NFTLLama:
If you're deep in the NFT space, you know that projects backed by popular influencers are primed for takeoff. NFTLLama's built a following of like-minded individuals who seek long-term projects with the potential to grow into a staple of the NFT community.
Sure enough, I checked out their website and everything was legit! What does Play-to-mint mean though?
Well, instead of spending your time chatting in a boring Discord with other NFTers who are looking to get WL'd, you can complete quests in the project's playable game and earn points towards a whitelist spot. Neat!
The quests are easy to complete as well. Just follow this page here, and you'll be able to complete 3 out of the 4 quests in no time! It should just take 10-15 minutes.
Heads up: The last quest ("Let it snow," released on December 25, 2021) isn't available anymore. Unfortunately, this quest was only a limited holiday event.
The top 1,000 point earners will get access to the first collection's whitelist. So make sure you complete the three quests ASAP for a higher chance of getting a cheap mint.
Ok, that's a cool mechanic. I know what you're thinking though. What's so special about this P2E farming game? What does it have going for it? Should I even bother getting whitelisted?
First and foremost, the team has been partnering with notable projects like CryptoPunks, CryptoKitties, and Lazy Lions to bridge their NFTs onto Pixel Online's platform:
On January 14, the team will be releasing the project's first collection: Farm Land.
There will be a total of 2,000 plots of Farm Land that will give owners access to farming features like planting crops. Owners will also be able to build themselves a home and customize their land with trees, bushes, furniture etc.
Now let's say you don't have the time to care for your farm. I mean, let's be honest: Most of us haven't made it yet. It'd be nice to live off of NFTs, but right now, it's just a dream.
Luckily, Pixels Online will incorporate a system to get help from your friends and split rewards.
Bear in mind that the game is still in pre-Alpha. The Alpha will be released to the public in the summer, with a token being developed to exchange goods in the Pixel Online universe. It will also serve as fuel to customize your land.
Big things are coming for this project. Although it is still being developed, it's incredible to see the support it's been receiving from fellow NFT communities.
It doesn't hurt to complete a couple of quests and get whitelisted!
As always, WAGMI 🚀.
