Title: Dragon's Tale - the gambling MMORPG
Post by: teppy on July 13, 2011, 08:45:02 PM
It's been a while since I talked about Dragon's Tale in the Bitcoin forums, and since the Bicoin community has grown so much lately, I thought now would be a good time to introduce it to new members.

Dragon's Tale is the Disney World of gambling. It's a 3D MMORPG where every object that you can see is a game of some sort, from the buildings to the plants. In most MMORPGs your character advances by fighting - in Dragon's Tale you level up by gambling. You can grow crops, race beetles, feed ducks, or even put on a fireworks show for friends in the game. We have 35+ games, all novel: about half of these are games of chance, and half are games of skill. We'll even give you free Bitcoins to get started, no strings attached. (As in, none of the playthough nonsense that every other online casino uses - when you get a gift from any of the Soldier Statues throughout the game, it's yours to play or withdraw.) Of course I hope you'll love the game and bring some Bitcoins of your own to play.

Dragon's Tale is by my company, eGenesis. We're the guys behind A Tale in the Desert. It is built entirely around Bitcoins, and has native clients for Windows, OSX, and Linux.

Check out the website and Wiki for downloads and more details: http://www.dragons.tl

Looking forward to seeing everyone in-game,
Teppy ("Di")

I have been playing this game for a couple months now and I'm hooked!  Absolutely love the different skill based gambling games you can play there and I have made a considerable amount of bitcoins.  If you decide to check it out look me up, I am a mentor and would love to take on some new students!  ;D

Also I would just like to add the client is extremely light on resources, especially for how good the game environment looks.  I play on my laptop while it's mining and kicking in a few extra shares.

This is a great game and I recommend it to everyone. If you take the time to learn the games, you can definitely win. It has a lot of potential and I expect it to go far.

If you haven't checked this out yet - try it!  it's 100% free to start, you can't do a whole lot with only a few btm, but it's easy to withdraw as little as 0.01btc, and fun as well.  Start by visiting the soldier statues and asking for help in chat, the majority of regular players are quite friendly/helpful.

I started playing this game and couldn't get past the controls. Why can't I use the keyboard to move the camera? Why do I have to aim the mouse into a tiny section of the edges of the window to move the camera at a glacial pace?

I kind of want to like the concept but just doing the tutorial nearly made me tear my hair out.

I heard this game uses your computer to mine when you play...

It does not use your computer to mine while you play.

Your sources are inferior.

When I try to withdraw 0.01BTC I get this message "Send failed with code err:json". I am certain that I have the funds for this withdraw as well.

This game is easy to play if you read the instructions. I'm just now learning to play it but it seems to be extremely fun. Check it out!

I believe we're actually the longest running Bitcoin based game in the world - continuous operation since October of 2010. We'd routinely tell each other "you know, we're probably with future $100 bills right now. "

(Bitcoins were about a nickel at the time. )

I could tell from this post

If you lose Bitcoins due to a server crash, we'll do everything we can to verify any lost jackpots, and reimburse you for them. After a server crash we may temporarily disable withdrawals to prevent double-withdrawals. We credit your first (up to 100 BTC) deposit immediately (in Bitcoin lingo, 0 confirmations), but prevent withdrawals until we've had 2 confirmations since your most recent deposit (about 12 minutes.)

^_^

This game used to be really cool, but it never really grows or gets updated anymore, and if it does the updates have been for the worse.

-No more tourneys hardly
-Soldiers Gifts are insultingly low
-Herbs got nerfed.

And some new thing called "mineral waters" to replace soldiers? Going to be so that only new players can get them, and I've had three and was paid out .0000175
When I've put multiple bitcoins into this game, and I know that they are super rich because they've been around for so long, they were making tons of bitcoins when bitcoins were nickles.

I usually end up exiting the game mad, didn't used to be like that. But now...

after a solid hour at the game, not really worth playing; controls are difficult and camera angles are clunky and hard to work with. also really hard to get anything going from just soldier payouts without depositing

Why has the hot wallet been sending out so many cashouts with 0 fee? One of them took 3 days to confirm lol.
