Free to Play, Play and Earn

The Re:Anima team aims to pioneer a new standard that welcomes all players by providing accessible blockchain education. Previous P2E models have failed for several key reasons:

1. High Entry Barriers

   • Requiring players to purchase expensive NFTs before playing has proven challenging. Players also need prerequisite knowledge about setting up wallets and trading cryptocurrency for these NFTs, limiting accessibility.

2. Overemphasis on "Earning" Over Playability

   • Many play-to-earn games sacrifice long-term gameplay just to satisfy short-term investor demands. This leaves their worlds feeling hollow, harming sustainability. In catering to these short-term players, developers often sacrifice long-term playability - the real key to sustaining a game.

3. Ineffective Governance Tokens

   • Despite claims of built-in governance, most P2E games fail to properly utilize governance tokens due to poor infrastructure. The purported governance abilities have little real utility. By learning from these past mistakes, wen aim to build an inclusive Play and Earn model focused on fun, engaging gameplay and strong community governance. Our goal is welcoming all players into the world of web3 in a sustainable way.

The new Model: Free to Play, Play and Earn

1. Make Re:Anima more accessible

   • To make blockchain gaming more accessible, our game is free to start playing and available across platforms like Mac, PC, iOS, and Android. Players can easily create accounts with just an email, no crypto wallet required. This email-based account system with bound wallets creates a seamless onboarding for non-crypto users.

2. Make trading easier

   • We aim to make blockchain gaming as frictionless and accessible as possible and our in-game marketplace supports both crypto and fiat payments. Players who already hold cryptocurrency can seamlessly use their wallet to purchase or trade in-game items. While new blockchain gamers can simply use a credit card to participate in the same in-game economy.

3. Make Blockchain gaming more fun

   • Our target audience is traditional gamers, not opportunistic investors. So rather than catering to those only interested in quick earnings, we prioritize creating an enjoyable game first and foremost. Our team pours love into every design decision, crafting engaging stories, thrilling challenges, and meaningful choices that keep players invested. We ensure the core gameplay loop is inherently fun even without financial incentives. The play-to-earn elements then complement this pre-existing foundation. Players can optionally earn rewards on top of an already entertaining experience, not as a replacement for lacking gameplay.
