Online gaming is becoming more popular and awareness about it is growing everyday. Innovations that try to improve user experience on gaming platforms are also on the increase. Blockchain introduction into online games has brought about some noticeable benefits for both the players and gaming platforms.
Blockchain technology has a way of simplifying both participation and administrative processes wherever it is implemented. This is not different in the gaming industry, where we have seen both platforms that employ blockchain, and those that are completely built on the technology.
Out of the many online games that are currently in existence, we will be taking a look at the top 10 games built on blockchain.
10. Age of Rust
This is an exploration game that is staged in the year 4424. This sci-fi futuristic game involves the exploration of abandoned space stations, mysterious caverns and other ruins. The players’ task is to unlock the many puzzles that are hidden within these ruins.
The game uses blockchain technology to implement a P2P rental market, where players can rent in-game assets for specified periods of time.
Currently available is the text-adventure version of Age of Rust, with an in-game currency known as Rustbits. These coins will eventually become converted to ERC-1155 tokens using Enjin Coin’s smart contract to enable this functionality. The full version of the game is expected to go live towards the end of 2019.
9. Gods Unchained
Gods Unchained is a multi-player esport game where users can battle each other, trade, sell and store gaming cards.

5. Decentraland
This is a typical hybrid of work and game with a lot of value attached to it. Decentraland is more of a VR platform that allows its users to create, experience and monetize content and applications.

Conclusion
Blockchain encroachment into digital content industry is deep and pronounced. There is hardly any area today where blockchain technology is not finding implementation, whether in partial terms or in full.
As a review platform, users can find information and reviews on tons of games on the Blue Baikal platform. Even more interestingly is that the platform rewards participants who perform different kinds of tasks like reviewing and promoting content.
Unlike previous protocols where users have to depend on some central entities to determine the outcome and rewards, blockchain systems enable users to own their own value in a transparent system.
