Overview
My Neighbor Alice is a multiplayer blockchain-based game built on Chromia, blending traditional gaming elements with decentralized mechanics. Set in the virtual world of the Lummelunda Archipelago, the game allows players to own, trade, and develop virtual land and in-game assets through NFTs. With its integration of a decentralized economy and play-to-earn features, My Neighbor Alice provides both a creative and financial ecosystem for players. The game emphasizes community involvement, self-expression, and collaboration.
Gameplay
Land Ownership and Crafting
In My Neighbor Alice, players can claim, buy, or rent land within the Lummelunda Archipelago. Each island is divided into regions and individual plots that serve as the primary assets. Players can customize their land through activities like farming, building, and crafting. Crafting involves using the game’s native ALICE token to create NFTs, some of which retain a portion of locked ALICE tokens that can be recovered through NFT destruction.
Play-to-Earn Mechanics
The game introduces a robust play-to-earn system where players are rewarded for completing tasks, participating in events, and crafting in-game items. These rewards typically come in the form of ALICE tokens, which can be traded, staked, or used for in-game purchases. Additionally, players can rent out their virtual assets, such as land and NFTs, to earn passive income.
Web3 Infrastructure
Chromia Blockchain
Chromia provides the backbone for My Neighbor Alice, offering a relational blockchain architecture designed to support decentralized applications like games. This platform ensures that in-game assets, logic, and user data are fully decentralized, giving players true ownership over their progress. Chromia’s Appnet environment allows for seamless gameplay without the need for constant transaction signing or gas fees.
Interoperability
The game leverages blockchain interoperability, allowing players to transfer assets, including ALICE tokens and NFTs, across different blockchain networks like Ethereum and BNB Chain. This cross-chain compatibility is enabled through Chromia’s decentralized bridges, ensuring that players have full control of their assets regardless of the chain they prefer.
Tokenomics
ALICE Token
The ALICE token is the primary utility token within the game, facilitating a variety of functions such as purchasing in-game items, crafting NFTs, and participating in governance through a DAO. With a fixed supply of 100 million tokens, ALICE also plays a role in staking, where users can earn rewards by locking their tokens during certain game events.
Governance and DAO
My Neighbor Alice is building toward decentralized governance through the formation of a DAO called the Community Council. Players holding ALICE tokens will be able to vote on key game developments, including economic adjustments, game features, and event planning, making the game community-driven and highly interactive.
Rewards and Events
The game features a dedicated Rewards Board, offering players opportunities to earn ALICE tokens and special NFTs by completing various tasks, both in-game and on social media. Events like the $ALICE Airdrop Party give players exclusive access to rewards by engaging with the game ecosystem and helping expand its reach
