Project Summary:

Aurory is a gaming studio delivering immersive, free-to-play Web3 games and experiences. They were founded in early 2021 and currently have over 70 employees,  many of whom were former talents at reputable game studios such as Ubisoft, Gameloft, EA, Warner Bros., Rovio, and more. 

Aurory has raised $106M in its public sales, making it the largest IDO on Solana. They are building in the open towards a vision of a robust ecosystem of multiple games, mini-games, and dApps. Each of these experiences, which are all based on original lore, will utilize interoperable assets, meaning that players can use them across the entire platform.

At the moment, Seekers of Tokane and Aurory Tactics are Aurory live games. Additional products and experiences are in the pipeline as well, namely a remastered version of Aurorians on Expeditions, which is a gamified idle experience in which players can send their Aurorians on virtual quests to retrieve useful items or have a limited-time opportunity to complete certain objectives.

SyncSpace is another product that Is built by Aurory. It is a hybrid on-chain/off-chain inventory system. The main purpose of the system will be to minimize friction for users by limiting the number of blockchain interactions when interacting with our ecosystem, and it will also allow for cross-chain interoperability.

Aurory Tactics:

 

Aurory Tactics is a PvP, timeline-based battle arena in which your team of three Nefties fights against an opponent’s team. The goal is to be the first to knock out all of your opponent's Nefties.

Competition is fierce, so you'll want to find the right team composition that works for your playstyle and study their abilities to hold your own in the arena! Matches are played on a battle grid containing scattered obstacles that impact mobility.

Some Nefties will be able to jump or fly over these obstacles; others will have to go around them. There is also a battle-royale-style "danger zone" to encourage confrontation between opponents. After a while, cells on the sides will become dangerous to Nefties, dealing serious damage to those who end a turn on one. The effect will progressively spread to other cells!

Seekers of Tokane:

Seekers of Tokane is an immersive RPG in which you embark on a thrilling journey through diverse landscapes, each brimming with wondrous creatures known as Nefties. These magical beings are yours to collect, train, and trade as you navigate and battle your way through the universe of Aurory.

Your adventure will start in the village of Blanche. Here, you'll give your character a cool look thanks to numerous customization options.

The game will feature multiple villages, which are communal places where players can meet and socialize. Each village will host events and tournaments where the best players can earn exclusive rewards.

This is a game that combines exploration and battles, as well as encounters with other players and strategy, for a well-rounded, rewarding, and captivating gaming experience that taps into players' desires for progression, collection, and social interaction.

Aurory's Tokenomics:
    • Ticker : $AURY
    • Market Cap: $49,916,727 
    • Fully Diluted Valuation: $98,307,431
    • Circulating Supply: 50,076,148 
    • Total Supply: 100,000,000

Aurory Use Cases:
    • The Aurory marketplace is $AURY-driven, which means all trades are settled with $AURY.

    • Players can hatch Prime eggs by paying an $AURY fee to get new Neftie companions.

    • Art upgrade fees and land sales will be based in $AURY.

    • Buying Crystals with $AURY gives players a discount.

    • Additional use cases will go live over time.

What we like in Aurory:
    • They launched in the peak bull market of the last cycle and raised over $100M, which means they have plenty of funds and runway to develop their games. Aurory’s team has over 70 members with varying levels of experience across the blockchain and gaming industries, which is crucial to us because building original games, in general, is not easy and takes a lot of resources.

    • The vesting for seed investors is done, and 50% of the Team & Advisors allocation is vested. The rest that is still vesting is just Game Rewards and the Ecosystem Fund.

    • Aurory is a GameFi company. So, we invest in the company's token here; they are building many games, and the more games you have, the better the chances of success.

    • Good use cases for the token.

    • The team’s main focus is Sustainability (which many GameFI projects failed to do and got hyperinflation to the point the project is dead). “Play-And-Own” is Aurory’s ethos, it means that people don't come to earn a salary; they play games because the games are good, and as a bonus, they will own their assets, be they consumables, skins, $AURY, NFTs, etc.

    • Free-to-Play: Players do not need to invest or make any purchases to play Aurory games. This eliminates a common entry barrier and widespread adoption.

    • Play Without A Wallet: Players do not need a crypto wallet to try Aurory games. They can connect a Twitter, Discord, Facebook, or Google account.

2. Voxies:

 

Voxel NFT game

 

Project Summary:

Voxie Tactics is a retro-styled tactical RPG that is heavily influenced and inspired by the vein of classical 1990s and early 2000s tactics games, but with some modern twists sprinkled in and some updated gameplay mechanics to make the game feel both nostalgic and modern at the same time.

Voxie Tactics is a Free to Play game, but the game allows players to bring their own Voxies character that they own from the Voxies NFT project across into the game, for additional benefits to the gameplay, as well as customize the playable experience tailored to the Voxie characters that the player owns.

The game features 2 core gameplay modes - Exploration and Battling, as well as lots of ancillary RPG gameplay mechanics that you would expect from any Role-Playing Game.

Exploration:

The exploration mode is presented as a story-driven experience that will allow the players to freely explore the world of Voxie Tactics and encounter many different types of adventuring experiences as they uncover the backstory of the game and explore the vibrant world. 

Battling:

The battling aspect of the game will take place in specific battle arenas and will be turn-based with characters moving around a 3d tile-based map and using their multitude of different actions to try and satisfy certain battle conditions, such as defeating all enemies in a battle.

The battle gameplay will be "Easy to get into, but hard to master" as it represents an ever-growing challenge to your wits, but will be explained to the player progressively so as not to overwhelm new players during the beginning of the game.

The team behind Voxies are AlwaysGeeky Games. They have over 20 members with 15+ years of games development experience and they have worked at worldwide studios like EA Games and Ubisoft. They have contributed to major AAA game projects like the Assassin’s Creed franchise, the Farcry franchise and the Harry Potter games. They have also been involved in the indie gaming community for several years, have taken part in countless game jams, and generally spend working days making great games.

Voxies’s tokenomics:
    • Ticker: $VOXEL
    • Market Cap: $23,980,243 
    • Fully Diluted Valuation: $59,921,692
    • Circulating Supply: 120,057,907 
    • Total Supply: 300,000,000

VOXEL Tokens can be earned by playing the Voxie Tactics game in various game modes. VOXEL Token holders will be able to redeem their VOXEL Tokens for in-game items in the Voxie Tactics marketplace (weapons, armour, consumables, etc.). Holders will also be able to craft items using their tokens and consumable items, as well as use the VOXEL Token to pay entry fees to the Voxie Tactics PvP arenas.

What do we like in Voxies?
    • Team vesting is 2/3 complete, and advisor vesting is finished. Private sale vesting is at 1/3, but private sales only have a 3% allocation, which is small in our opinion.

    • They are invested in by Binance Labs and were introduced on Binance Launchpad, which usually shows really good performance in the long term.

    • It is a free-to-play game, and players will be able to earn VOXEL tokens. However, to boost earnings and progress faster in the game, players will need Voxies' NFTs.

    • The game is addictive to play if you enjoy competition and has the potential to attract people with Minecraft's graphic style.

  •  
    • The full Fully Diluted Valuation is problematic as they are currently only vesting 1/10 of the total supply. But the Team, Seed Sales, and Private Sales are vested about 50%. The major portion that is still waiting to vest are just Rewards and Reverse
  •  
    • The game is high quality, ARPG style which is easy for adaptation. According to our research, the alpha game got positive reviews from players.

  • The tokens have many use cases which could boost the price of the token if there is adoption.
