My new favorite game is a very simple incremental web 3 RPG called Ancient Realms.
AR was released this month on the WAX blockchain.
The reason I started playing this game was because it was a brand new play to earn NFT game that I could get into with a very small initial investment, it doesn't require any sort of time investment, and I really like the simplicity of it all.
To train your combat skills you will need a weapon. Go to atomichub.io, search the marketplace for ancient realms, filter by weapons, and find a sword (melee), bow (ranger), or staff (mage).
You are also going to need to pick up a fishing pole, and/or a mining pick. I suggest buying 1 rare or epic tool and then selling your extra resources to buy the iron or fish that you need.
Fishing will earn you a token called ARFISH. Mining earns ARIRON, and winning fights with common monsters or NPCs earns ARGOLD. You need gold to travel, fight bosses, and repair your tools. You need fish to restore your health, and iron to repair your gear after rough battles.
Depending on which item you use will determine what skills you gain experience in. I have decided to become a magic user so I have been selling my extra fish, and sometimes gold for WAX on alcor.exchange and then using the WAX to buy new gear, while selling my old gear, on atomichub.io. With this strategy I hope to get all epic mage gear, within the next couple weeks. Then I will focus on trying to upgrade that gear to legendary.
If you ever want to change classes and learn different combat skills like ranged or melee then you would simply switch weapons and gear. Rangers use leather armor and swords fighters use platemail armor.
The amount of EXP you earn is based directly off of how much HP your opponent has. For example if you slay the mighty orc, Ulam, that has a massive 275 HP then you will gain 275 EXP for killing him.
The boss fights in this game include Ulam and the Wendigo both have a chance to drop mythical NFTs that are worth hundreds of dollars on the open market and offer big bonuses to adventures lucky enough to loot them.
I have defeated Ulam and will soon be spending 200 gold to travel to the Rolling Hills to hunt down the infamous Wendigo. Wish me luck and if you decide to get the game, post your gear on twitter and tag me so I can see your progress!
