I play a lot of their games through Facebook and if it's true that they're entering into blockchain space with an incentive to let their players earn cryptos, that's fantastic!

Their old typical games gained the attention of the people, old and young, because they were all for all ages and that's why this game can be potentially be like those.

This will be a hit to their players as now there is a good motivation to play more because of the coins that they will earn from the game. Are they going to have internal exchange where players can exchange their coins to btc or eth? This is really nice! More gamers will be in crypto soon!

Basically they are creating a Farmville like game where players can own real plot in digital earth. You can own your country or your city and farm it the way you want. The concept looks cool but the success lies in how it's executed. They are already deep into development with their private funding and are hoping for another round of fundraising through ICO.

Ya, if this gets viral like Farmville, then it would be good for crypto ecosystem; especially Ethereum.

They will certainly have an exchange for NFTs in game. As for coins, I'm sure they will have something for it too. And even if they don't and their games get successful; then there will be lots of opportunities to trade via OTC.

As far as I have learnt in discord, there will be no owning of land or country. All players will get to choose a land of their choice but it will be only for a week and then it will be reset coz of weekly tournaments. And I haven't heard of any ICO plans.

And if it will be launched these days, everybody is in lockdown so the number of players will be at home and they can take part of it. That is only if they will be launching it at the right time.

There's a big impact if they do but if not, they should launch it as soon as possible so that many players will start playing the game and enjoy the incentive it offers.

What do you think? Can games like Townstar help onboard millions of mobile users including ur grannies to the crypto world?

Wait... What? So almost everyone is really adapting to the blockchain technology. I played most of their games before and now that they join in the blockchain project I think I might have to play those games again if I find it interesting with their new project. This time it may be interesting/promising but I hope they won't down my expectations to them since I'm a fan of those games before.

True! I do believe that game will bring a lot of mobile users to the cryptocurrency world. However, it will take a lot of time for it to be widely popular. Since the cryptocurrency isn't widely recognized in the world, it's kind of hard for those game if they choose crypto as a method of payment. However, who knows? Let's wait to see!

Blockchain advancement is taking a good shape to be frank and it is constantly on the increase with industry experts coming on board every now and then. Also, from another angle, blockchain games is gaining the right traction now as many developers keeps looking for ways to project their ideas while taking their position on the crypto space. As for this particular expert coming on board or already on board, this will be a new era in their existing ecosystem because in addition to offering users more gaming experience and benefits via blockchain will also lead to the increase in users hence more platform worth.

I hope people joined Gala Games and earned some Gala back when I posted in April. It is expanding rapidly and now a top 200 coin. When Mirandus, their most ambitious game launches Q4 this year, it will easily be in top 50 coins!!

Kind of game I'd like to spend time on especially if the properties in the virtual world also exist in the real world and property owners in virtual also own the exact copy in the physical... If a property is sold or rented in the virtual, it's also sold or rented in the physical.

I hope they make it fun for everyone.

Whew! Remembering those good old days where Farmville was one of the most popular and been hyped wayback into those early years.Its a good news that even gaming developers,

and related to it do already recognized about on how blockchain technology would really be used into this industry and theres no doubt with that about the success of integration
into this field.

Its still in beta though and im wondering if they would be able to finalize it for this month or in next?

Townstar is in Beta and Mirandus which is an MMORPG will launch pre-Alpha late this year. It will be quite a vast game!

I am one of those Farmville addicts before who used to spam friends with help requests until I find the cheat bot haha. It really made happy seeing my farm so beautiful even I am just wasting time and money as I dont have my own internet connection so need to rent on comshop. I have tried Townstar and it brings back farmville memories the funny thing is I already enjoy the game and made a good progress before knowing I can only earn by having farmbot that is need to purchase and assemble or joining the weekly event and enter top 100 haha, but anyways earning or not I love it.

[cryptoknightt]

This looks really good. they have tons of players. This is very hype later. Of course, will bring mobile users to play their games. Because the world is currently busy with mobile and crypto technology. I am very very interested and excited.
