Mechanics

Each mechanic is designed to create meaningful risk, token burn, and strategic decision-making as players climb toward the top tier.

Initial values—such as minting costs, merge fees, dismantle returns, and supply caps—will be shared once the smart contract is revealed. Balancing mechanics will also be revealed at this time.

Minting

ERC-20 Tokens are used to mint Tier-1 NFTs

• Minting Cost: 50 tokens per Tier-1 NFT

Pairing Requirement: Each merge requires two NFTs of the same tier.

Random Outcome: Each merge has a 50% chance of successfully upgrading.

On Success: One NFT of the next tier is returned to the player.

On Failure: One NFT is lost; the other is returned to the player.

VRF Integration: Merge outcomes are resolved using Chainlink VRF for transparent, tamper-proof randomness.

Merging

Merge Fees: Players pay a fee per merge attempt, increasing by tier. All fees are burned.

• Tier 1: 15 tokens

• Tier 2: 45 tokens

• Tier 3: 135 tokens

• Tier 4: 405 tokens

• Tier 5: 1215 tokens

Maximum Tier: 6

Tier Unlocking:

• Each tier beyond Tier 1 unlocks 24 hours after game start

• Tier 2 unlocks 24 hours after game start

• Tier 3 unlocks 48 hours after game start

• And so on...

Dismantling

Players can dismantle NFTs of any tier to reclaim a portion of their original token cost.

Returned value increases with NFT tier based on predefined dismantle values:

• Tier 1: 50 tokens (100% of minting cost)

• Tier 2: 115 tokens

• Tier 3: 275 tokens

• Tier 4: 685 tokens

• Tier 5: 1775 tokens

• Tier 6: 4765 tokens

The NFT is burned, and tokens are minted back to the player.

ERC-1155 - The NFT

ERC-1155 NFTs: Each NFT tier is represented by a unique ID (1+) with its own tracked supply.

• Tier Progression:

  • Tier‑1 NFTs are minted with tokens.

  • Players merge two NFTs of the same tier to attempt upgrading to the next tier.

• NFT Sink Mechanisms:

  • Success rate: Failed merges burn 50% of NFTs used in merge (one NFT from each pair)

  • Dismantling: Returns predefined token values as listed above

ERC-20 - The Token

Dynamic Supply: The circulating supply is dynamically adjusted through gameplay actions.

Minting Tier‑1 NFTs: Players burn tokens to mint Tier‑1 NFTs.

• Token Sink Mechanisms:

  • Merge fees: Tokens are burned to attempt NFT upgrades.

• Additional Mechanics:

  • Merge Request Reclaiming: If a merge hasn't been fulfilled after 15 minutes, players can reclaim their merge request
