The next in our Theta Hackathon profile series is Clan Wars TCG, an NFT-based trading card game where the cards you play with are NFTs you own on Theta blockchain!
Clan Wars is a Trading Card Game (TCG) designed in the tradition of Magic: The Gathering and Yu-Gi-Oh! but is more emotionally engaging and features several brand new card types and mechanics not seen before in a trading card game.
Just as significantly, Clan Wars is an NFT-based game where the cards you play with are NFTs you own.
These NFTs allow their owners entry into an ever-expanding lore from a world overflowing with events and adventures that tickle the human imagination. And the result has been nothing short of astounding. Already, playtesters of the game (TCG players of various age groups in local game shops, NFT owners from the Mystic Gurus community, and outside followers of the ClanWarsTCG social media accounts) are raving about the game!
While Clan Wars will ultimately exist as both a physical and digital game, the Hackathon submission deals with the digital version.
The digital version of Clan Wars comes with the following features:
• A secure Web3-enabled website
• A marketplace where the NFTs needed to play the game can be minted or traded
• Four distinct clan deck NFTs with fundamentally different play styles to choose from
• A lobby area where new games can be created, joined, or viewed
A luscious 3D game environment that is already compatible with both Desktop and Mobile
A basic AI with three levels of strength for each clan that can be used to learn the game or practice with new clan decks before playing them in public
Development of the game is still continuing beyond the Theta Hackathon. Clan Wars TCG is targeting the massive traditional TCG gaming market. It uses Theta Rarity’s NFTExpress (another Theta Hackathon project) to send out free Clan Deck NFTs to people in the TCG community who may not even be familiar with NFTs. With NFTExpress they will be able to play Clan Wars with their own NFT, but they don’t have to worry about buying TFuel or setting up wallets. This has the potential to introduce many new TCG enthusiasts to the Theta ecosystem.
Other ongoing developments include:
• Implementing many more Clan Decks
• Implement “Booster Packs” which will contain a few random cards, but which can have more powerful or more interesting effects than the cards found in the standard Decks.
• Add a “Deck Building” section to the site where you can mix and match cards from Clan Decks and Booster Packs to make your own custom deck, with your preferred mix of cards. You’ll also be able to package your custom deck as an NFT and sell it on the marketplace.
• Add more social features including profiles, tournaments, in-game reactions, and other features such as chat.
• The physical version of the game with physical cards will also be linked to NFTs, so owning the physical Clan Wars cards will allow you to use them in the digital Clan Wars game as well.
Congrats on the win and thank you for your submission!
