The current play-to-earn landscape is polarized. As the GameFi space is in it’s earliest stages, players currently have two choices; An idle-click game with a low level of interaction. Or a “Triple-A” game that is stuck in development for up to a year.

Games like DefiKingdoms are impressive with their level of detail and strategy, but it still feels like a glorified DeFi platform with extra steps.

I thought games were meant to be fun?

It feels like to get into GameFi you need a 1hr YT video just to understand how to play. Our platform is 100% focused on fun. You still get rewarded, but it’s less strategy and more relax-to-earn.

We’ve built our project with inspiration from Club Penguin 🐧 & Miniclip 🎮

Much like Club Penguin, you will be able to navigate an interactive world, play mini-games, and earn $IGGY to spend on user items to customize your profile and Snow Den (like Igloo).

You can toggle a view on our website to be mini-game focused only. This means that the interactive world is still available, but your screen will display a quick view of each game rather than having to travel to locations to play. Much like Miniclip.

We’re giving users the option so they can adapt to their situation/preference. Our aim is to create a platform as easy as possible for regular gamers to enjoy blockchain games, without being discouraged by lore and complicated strategies.

Users earn $IGGY by gaining XP, achievements, trophies, and leaderboard placements. The most profitable aspects will come from completing quests and trading rare items on the marketplace. Items, trophies, and NFTs can be displayed in your Snow Den.

The journey of GameFi has just begun.

We believe that gaming will be a catalyst for crypto-adoption in 2022, so it’s imperative to build platforms that are inclusive of all users regardless of experience in the space. Most importantly to have fun!

Our software values education around conservation initiatives, more specifically about Polar Bear population declines and how we can make a global impact by utilizing powerful blockchain tools.
