👽 [ANN] Age of Chains: Bitcoin NFT Trading Card Game since 2016 👽

[m4nki]

Nice idea to have limited edition physical cards, but after buying most of the cards to date I do feel like there is only so much money I can spend on a game which I know almost nothing about and which won't be released until some undetermined time in the (probably quite distant) future.

Hi Cryptorials!

Yes, I can totally understand. I wish things would be moving faster, too but we are moving steadily ahead. We appreciate the support you have been giving us so far and I am sorry for things taking so long.

Meanwhile, you can check out the video to our latest card here:



I hope you like it. As you can see, we try to make every card something special, rather than using some quick sketch. What we are looking to achieve is not just another TCG but something epic in every way and this takes time but hopefully will ultimately reward us with something unique that the world has not seen before.

Some days ago I stumbled upon this Age of Chains first look review, how nice! Let us show him some love with a like.

Sorry for the inconvenience!

Thank you meyer!

We are going to attend the Crypto Games Conference in Minsk where we will be having a stand on October 18th.

Furthermore, we are nominated for the Crypto Games Conference Choice Award.

It surely is going to be an exciting event - if you attend make sure to drop by the Age of Chains stand on the 18th. We prepared some nice and unique giveaways!

looks great...I´m curiuos how to use them

I had the pleasure to talk to the founder in person in Minsk today - very cool project!  It's probably going to be a bit niche for the "old school Bitcoin community" that actually lived through the altcoin craze of 2013 and didn't just arrive last year with ICOs, but that's the fun of it!

[domob]

I'm thinking about supporting this project and buying some of the presale cards through tokenmarkets.com.  The item descriptions say "Use the IndieSquare Wallet, Book of Orbs or Tokenly to buy cards from the Age of Chains swapbot".  Does that mean that I have to use those wallets, or can I also use, say, CounterWallet instead?

I've no actual experience with Counterparty so far - and CounterWallet looks to me like the most trustworthy wallet.  (I certainly don't want a mobile wallet nor a Chrome extension, so that from the three listed only Book of Orbs remains.)

Also, do I need the BTC to buy the cards in the same wallet, or can I send them just from my regular Bitcoin wallet instead and have the cards transferred to my Counterparty wallet's address?

This deck is a 3D graphic, right? It looks so real!
Please update this thread more often since you're still working on the game. Will there be any alpha/beta access to the game anytime soon?

Thank you, meyer! I hope to be playing with you soon so you can experience the game yourself!

domob, it has been great to meet you at the conference! I appreciate your kind words - with ongoing adoption of blockchain technology within our world, we hope that Age of Chains also will find a wide variety of players who will see Age of Chains as a nice entry way to dive into the paradigm of decentralization remanifesting itself in society.

Thank you so much for supporting Age of Chains! People like you are the ones making the journey to accomplishing our vision possible.

As far as it goes for Desktop wallets, both Counterwallet.io and FreeWallet.io are great to use. My favorite is FreeWallet.io as it constantly is being developed and the creator J Dog is very feedback oriented.

Also, do I need the BTC to buy the cards in the same wallet, or can I send them just from my regular Bitcoin wallet instead and have the cards transferred to my Counterparty wallet's address?

This is a great question. In fact, you can send BTC from any wallet and the card delivery happens through an unrelated process where you claim the cards via email.

Please let me know if you have further questions!

You mean the arena? Yes, it is a 3D arena.

We are working on a digitally playable version of the game. Obtaining the necessary funding to get our CTO full-time involved in our project would help accelerate a lot as he currently still has to work full-time on a different project to sustain a living. So while it currently is tough for me to say when it is ready, we certainly are working on making it happen as soon as possible.

Thanks for the reply - I figured everything out, and all worked like a charm.  So now I'm the happy owner of a few series-2 cards.

The cards collected in the game Age of Chains, will only be collectible or can make exchanges for other altcoins? Will the Game be available for any type of platform?

[domob]

I'm interested in getting my hands on some of the sold-out series-1 cards.  So if you want to make some XCP, consider the bids I created on the Counterparty Market or place your counter-asks and I will look at them.

The game will be mainly developed for desktop. We might do a mobile version afterwards.

You will be able to use Age of Chains cards in the Age of Chains game but you can also use the Counterparty DEX do trade your cards against XCP. A good app for this currently is Book of Orbs, both for Android and web. We once wrote an article on it to read here.

Of course, also other games may decide to add functionality to our cards in their games. An example is Sarutobi Island, wherein you can summon various monsters by putting two different Age of Chains cards on an altar.

Nice to see some activity happening! Wishing you the best of luck in getting your hands on some of those cards!
