Now Available on Google Play store and iTunes App store! The first Blockchain game allowed on iOS to use in-game crypto!

February 27, 2019 – Block and Chain Game Studios (https://blockandchain.games/) is pleased to announce the public release of Blockfight - an exciting creature-centered dice battle game built using blockchain technology. This visually immersive and technologically cutting-edge battle game is the first title published by Block and Chain Game Studios, an up-and-coming blockchain gaming platform.


Blockfight is an immersive online gaming experience where players battle grotesque monsters, displayed in high-res 3D. The beasts take massive hits all based on the roll of the dice, which rely on blockchain technology to ensure truly random and provably fair results. Just select your character and how much you want to risk on the fight and your characters will battle it out to the bitter end.

The creatures battle for guts, glory, and valuable rewards. Beat them all and fill your trophy room – and your digital coin wallet! Players can play completely free to test the waters, thanks to a generous allotment of in-game coins provided by Block and Chain. Users who want a bigger thrill will undoubtedly want to try their luck with a favorite cryptocurrency, such as Ethereum and HALO.

Blockfight is free-to-play and can be accessed directly on the web: https://www.blockfight.com/

Blockfight may be a new title from Block and Chain Game Studios, but it’s built on top of blockchain technology that is well-established. This is possible due to Block and Chain Game Studios’ partnership with Halo Platform, which has built some of the most robust and reliable blockchain technology available today. This cutting-edge platform will make gameplay and cryptocurrency flows on Block and Chain’s platform nearly seamless. If you’re a developer and have your own crypto-based experience you’re wanting to show the world, we suggest you roll the dice around in Blockfight a few times just to see how easy and seamless it is to integrate with the Halo Platform.  

Block and Chain Game Studios is a division of the Halo Platform aimed at encouraging the development of blockchain gaming and introducing the gaming community to the benefits of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology.

Random Number Generation From Hash
Random numbers are generated from a hash string, so that by using the same hash string, the same resulting numbers will be generated in the same order. The hash strings will be retrieved from the block chain using a Halo Platform API call.

How a Hash Generates Numbers
A hash is a string of hexidecimal characters (0-f). By itself, each character is 4 bits of data (value 0-15), but combining characters can produce higher ranges of values. Two characters represent 8 bits (value 0-255), three characters represent 12 bits (0-4095), four characters represents 16 bits (0-65,535).

When a random number is requested we look at the range requested to determine how many bits of data we need to achieve that possible range.

For example, if 1-6 is requested, then we know the range is 6, which is 16 or less. That means we can use a single hex character to determine the returned value. If 1-20 is requested, then the range exceeds 16 but is less than or equal to 256, so we can use two hex characters to determine the return value.

Since the value of the hex characters may exceed the requested range, we use the modulus of the requested range to help in determining the return value. For example, 1-20 is requested, then the range is 20. If the hex value is 30, then the effective hex value is 10.

The output value is adjusted by the minimum requested value to get the final output value. For example, the hex value is always 0 through something, so if 1-20 is requested, then we will first generate 0-19 from the hex value (after modulus), then we add 1 to get a possible value of 1-20.

When the generator has reached the end of the hash string, it loops back around to the start of the same hash. Each time a loop happens, the character index interval is incremented by one, to prevent using the same values over and over in the same order.

For example, let's say we have a 64 character hash, and we're requesting numbers that require 2 hex characters per value. After the first 32 numbers are requested, the next number will be generated from character index 0 and 2 instead of 0 and 1. See the example hash below that marks each used hex digit with a ^ symbol.

Here is a gameplay Youtube video showing the gameplay! I might add that the game is BROWSER BASED, you don't have to download anything! The video is lower quality, if you want the real quality then just go to https://www.blockfight.com and it automatically loads the game! It doesn't include the new updates to the game that allows you to autofight up to 100 matches without having to click anything! It is also using the older "Cage" instead of the newer updated one that supports metamask for Ethereum support.

I actually liked your site but I believe it would be cool to have some free matches, free of prizes, only to allow new people to understand how the games work before they have to register and deposit

[YuginKadoya]

I really think that you got a great site here to feature a fighting game with the use of blockchain technology, which is I like, My first impression on the site as I thought that this is a Halo game on the X-box but then I realize that it is a Halo Platform or coin which is I don't have any idea about it, And a good opportunity for the Halo coin to increase value that is $0.000779 USD

Well, I agree that with this, the site may need to have that kind of arrangement in the game because I think players may also need to check the battle scene on what they may do in the game or what strategy they can about this gambling structure.

Actually, funny that you mention it. When you sign up you are given 100k free ingame coins to play with. Every 3 hours the loot chest is available to win more free in game currency. After getting the gameplay down then you can deposit ETH with Metamask or deposit Halo. I've won my fair share of Halo in Blockfight matches. I even won some exclusive dice in the last community contest! Here is the announcement from Devin Seto in the Halo discord regarding this weeks community contest.

"Thanks to all of you who participated in our weekly contest. We were astounded by the sheer number of games played by all of you and, as expected, there was a vast array of results per player.

Well done players! I will reach out to each one of your directly with a redemption code for the special edition dice.

Now, we love winners. But we love losers too! At the end of the day, we're all players who enjoy fun games. So this week's competition is for our "lovable losers":

Anyone who completes the "Don't Stop Believing" achievement and posts a picture of it in their Achievements page by Monday at 9 am PST, will receive exclusive early access to the Draggin' Dragons closed beta, days before anyone else gets access.

Please note, "Don't Stop Believing" won't appear until you've completed "At Least You Tried" (lose 10 battles) first. Also, you don't need to play with crypto. In game coins are fine too.

Good luck!"

Yea they actually have an agreement with Microsoft in regards to the name. Halo is still extremely under the radar right now. They have Instant free transactions. There are no gas costs at all. So I can send you 10k Halo right now to your Halo wallet and it would appear before you had time to even look really. Decimated is building their MMORPG on the Halo platform due to it's speed, free transactions, and reliability.

see decimated game trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NB-ENl6i_os

Horizon state is also running their Blockchain voting platform on the Halo Platform. The South Australian Government just ran a 50,000 vote through using blockchain voting. see here:
https://www.nasdaq.com/article/south-australia-joins-regions-leveraging-blockchain-technology-for-elections-cm1105539

Plus the Scottish goverment is looking at using them as well if i'm not mistaken.

What I'm really getting at here, is that Halo is the perfect blockchain for real world use cases, ESPECIALLY Blockchain gaming. The MMORPG game that I mentioned above is very very interesting and ambitious with it's own real in game virtual economy.

It is great to see Blockchain technology being integrated into gaming , especially because a big company like Halo has accepted to be a partner or this. Does the game work on a mobile browser or is there an app? Or do you still work on this?

It does work on a mobile browser with just the in game currency I'm pretty sure. All of their games are coded so that they can easily port over to a mobile app, they just need a mobile wallet at this point to be able to interface with playing with Halo and Ethereum. Which I think they are working on.

What is the house edge of this game?

[jchi2210]

What is the house edge of this game?

No house edge at all! 2% commission for Halo and Ethereum matches, 5% commission for the free in game currency. You choose what percentage of chance you have of winning with the different fighters. It's very similar to etheroll.

pretty sure more gaming apps will integrate blockchain tech.
this is another good avenue for crypto mass adoption.

...upon reading your thread,i don't really have an idea on what does it mean,,until i tried to browse the site you mention..your website is not that so impressive,,very pale color and for me not a user friendly interface..but when i click on your games and seen the block fight,i was amazed..it is really great..it is a great idea that you have put blockchain technology on this kind of a game,,happy seeing this site improving..

[dukeru]

I really think blockchain games are going to dominate the gaming landscape in 2-3 years.  So many great things in the pipeline, not just from Halo Platform either.  Esports are becoming bigger than Nascar events and smart contracts ensure that winners get paid...it's the future...and with real working coins like HALO so cheap, this may be the time to jump aboard before the train pulls out of the station.

I agree, the game had also an auto play and nice animation when the dice is being rolled and the monster attack the opponent. I did check the video and it's 2% commission. The game also accept fiat but I don't know what credit card is accepted the OP better include the information on what credit card will be accepted to buy halo coins.

Maybe there are many other smart contracts will launch the similar games in the future and if that happens, then we can see a new trend of the project that will use games as their base project and Ethereum will still apply in the smart contract section.
Once the project can get success, it will make people attracted to invest their money in the project because the project can be a new promising of income source for the investor. We will see it later in the next few months or the next year.

Credit cards can only be used to buy the in-game currency which only has value inside the game and can't be transferred out. You will also get the in-game currency by signing up or with daily drips where you can get few thousand coins every few hours. And when playing with these "game coins" the commission is 5%
The Halo team has planned a fiat onramp as well but that probably won't happen any time soon - a lot of hoops to jump through for that.

Yea you're right, there needs to be a new updated video done about the gameplay that shows the new features like Autofight and the updated cage. I've added some pictures to the post to show off some of the additions. It's super easy to sign up and play, you can either download the Halo browser extension and use it to sign in with and then deposit Halo or Ethereum (with metamask) or you can sign in with a username. Let me know what you guys think about the gameplay!


One thing that we are seeing people become confused with is how the tie's work. So if my fighter rolls a 3,2 that gives me 5, and if the other fighter rolls a 4,1 that gives him 5, so its a tie. So the game will then roll again, if I roll a 3,1 then that's 4. It adds up from my first roll, so 5+4=9. If the opponent rolls 1,1 then he has two, so 5+2 = 7. So I win with my 9 over his 7.

Announcement from the BnC announcements channel in the Halo discord:

The Blockfight Launch Giveaway has now concluded and I will be drawing and announcing the winners tomorrow. We had about 100 entries into the draw.

Based on feedback received, we are taking a different tack with the remainder of the campaign. Instead of a draw, we are transitioning to an Airdrop campaign, where everyone can earn HALO for a variety of actions, including social media sharing, playing the game and joining our community. People can earn up to 5000 HALO each through these activities, PLUS we are going to continue the weekly draw for 100,000 HALO.

Why do this? Besides having a broader appeal, switching to an Airdrop allows us to post on high traffic sites like Airdrop Alert and various others.

We have posted the updated campaign on our home page with clear steps to earn: https://www.blockandchain.games/#give-away

So please spread the word and share the great news about Blockfight!

It's definitely an easy way to earn 5000 halo! You can either wager it away and try to earn more on Blockfight, or you can use the 5,000 Halo for a share in a Tier 1 or Tier 2 Halo masternode that will continue to earn more rewards!

I dont know if this is the similar name wayback before or just change its name(correct me if im wrong).
Sad, it doesnt work on Mozilla

This is awesome! I also found interesting the idea of gambling in the blockchain space

This is a new game with no name change, not really sure what you're referring to. As for the browsers, they are currently looking to make the Halo extension compatible with Mozilla as well as Blockfight! Knowing this team it won't take long.

From there, this adoptions will be a big outbreak for businesses to also see the benefits, gamings platforms already catered most of this new ages,
we will see how things will be well developed and the offers that would bring new spice with this gambling industries.

Getting interested with the graphics designed so nice to begin with.
