The gaming industry is huge and the mobile gaming industry just pushed it to much higher heights than what was possible before, and it was not long before most of the gamer demographic was addicted to the mobile offerings.
Gaming has always been one of the major pastimes for most of the young and old alike and I remember the days i used to get home from school and play racing games that used to run on DOS and it was pure fun. Nowadays, with the advancements in the graphics processing and new ray-tracing lighting tech available for consumers to experience, racing games have evolved to a point were they are so realistic and their physics model is accurate to that in our real world, it is like experiencing the same feeling as physically being there.
As a car fanatic myself, having a intense passion for anything on wheels, am into playing, driving, designing and customizing my ride. The wealthy are into the hobby of collecting and restoring precious, exotic and rare cars and many business are into the customization of vehicles.
Name one guy or girl for that matter that you know of, who hasn't dreamt of owning a Supercar or having designed or drawn a version of a car in their childhood. I know, that when I was young, I was totally into them and could name a car and its price just by hearing the engine sound and most of my friends were into the hobby of collecting toy car models and trading them for better ones. I mean, which guy hasn't at least once during their childhood wasn't fascinated by cars or any vehicle for that matter. We all were and will always will be.
Cryptocarz Platform
They aim to capture the intended audience by having a platform powered by blockchain where you could design, build and even race your creation using Virtual Reality (VR) and share them with your friends. They also enable you to sell your collections as they will all be limited and with the time the usually tend to get expensive. The mechanics in play here are same as what they do in car collections in real life.
But they are mainly presenting themselves as gaming platform rather than being just a collecting and trading platform. They tend to make it into a e-sport arena in the future. As of now, they are at pre-development stages. They accept most of the popular crypto-currencies as a payment and have an DApp in development.
ICO & Team
They are basically the joint venture between three different gaming studios and their team consists of members and developers from the studios. They are all experienced in their gaming domains and this is their first successful blockchain project. The project is in its nascent stage and much of their vision and roadmap is yet to be formed as of now. But they do have a good and diversified team at the beginning itself and they won't run out of talent considering they've got three studios backing them up. They haven't planned to hold an ICO for now, until the all else is planned and organized. Their tokens are based on Ethereum based ERC721 Token and basically that makes the cars that you own as collectibles.
Conclusion
They have a really unique platform which brings together car lovers, gamers, crypto-enthusiasts and developers together and lets them even make a buck or two out of it by building, trading, designing and collecting cars using the blockchain platform. It is also a part of a huge number of blockchain powered projects that is embracing the VR but among the few who want to turn this into an e-sport.
