The game was launched on November 28, it was developed by AxiomZen studio. Users can take animals out on their own and interact with each other by buying, selling and exchanging digital pets. Each "cryptokotenok" has individual characteristics and a pedigree. At the heart of the game is the blockbuster platform and the Ethereum crypto currency.
The Next Web calls CryptoKitties a modern version of the NeoPets platform launched in 1999, where users can also buy imaginary pets and take care of them. Thanks to Ethereum, the game is decentralized, which protects users from loss of pets when the project is closed, while in NeoPets animals are contained in a single database, notes TechCrunch.

In the absence of a buyer, the price is reduced every 24 hours.

Sell "kriptokotyat" can be through the auction, where the starting and ending prices are set. The cost is reduced until someone buys a pet.
