MYNEIGHBORALICE

Like many builder games, My Neighbor Alice features an open-world format that allows players to travel across the various islands to interact with players and in-game characters. Players navigate the world of Alice using their customizable avatar. The virtual islands that make up the game are divided into individual plots of land, most of which will eventually be owned by the players. These plots of land are each represented by a unique NFT, which can be sold or traded by the owner, and are highly customizable — allowing users to add decorations and change the terrain to create their own unique patch. As a story-driven game, MNA features a range of quests and activities for players. Although the details on how this will work are not yet available, the My Neighbor Alice white paper indicates that apart from official quests, the community will also be able to create their own events and pool their resources together to achieve common goals. In-game assets in My Neighbor Alice are represented by NFTs and can vary in their rarity. For example, there's a fixed supply of land, while some items are limited edition. Users that create their own items will also be able to control their scarcity by specifying the number of copies that can exist.

My Neighbor Alice uses the in-game currency called ALICE tokens, which is mirrored as an ERC20 token. An ERC20 token is a blockchain-based asset that functions like Ether, Bitcoin, etc., which means it can hold value and be either sent or received. Meaning, the value of your item in-game will be a factor of its price in the marketplace. My Neighbor Alice is advertised as a ‘play-to-earn’ game, and for its players to earn, they must participate in different in-game events such as competitions or sell rare NFTs acquired from the game. My Neighbor Alice is described to be a progression structured farming game, which means access to certain in-game assets or NFTs is based on the experience points accumulated from the player. Once the player attains a “rare” in-game asset, he/she can either choose to retain it as is or sell it for ALICE tokens. For example, a rare scarecrow asset is attainable to players level 25 and up, because of its rarity it can fetch a nice price in the market, which encourages players to increase their experience points just to have a shot for that rare asset.
