After a long hiatus Steemgar is back online operating on Steem blockchain. If you don't happen to know, Steemgar was one of the first projects that brought gaming to Steem blockchain. It seems using Steem for gaming has finally catched on in a big way and all I can say it's about time and I can't wait to see how complex games can get here. However, looking at the current gaming applications on Steem blockchain, Steemgar seems to still offer something unique that other games here lack. What is that you might ask?
Real-time, exciting and fast paced multiplayer gameplay where your skills matter most!
See for yourself in a example from Agar
As you can see, you aren't just clicking things and waiting for something to happen most of the time and no, you just don't get to watch your cards battle for you etiher. Instead you're the one in control and battling against other players in Steemgar, not your hired gangsters, spaceships or monsters. Is it more challenging? Yes! But at the same time it's also insanely rewarding feeling as you survive an intense battle as a top player! Steemgar is one of the few games that actually has managed to make my hand shake or pulse rise, it can get pretty intense, but you have to try it yourself to believe it! The experience of course isn't 100% same in Steemgar compared to Agar, but it's pretty damn close. In some aspects even better. Let me explain...
- In Steemgar you can win real value with your skills. Winner gets Steem dollars and those who end up in top 5 gets upvoted by the service and hopefully by other players as well for being a good competition.
- Steemgar is similar to battle royal. Each match lasts 5 minutes and every player gets 2 respawns.
- There's a ticket system: Every match requires a ticket worth of 0.1 SBD from the player. So everyone in the match will have something to lose and to win! This will result in tough, competitive and fun matches for all.
If you've already read enough you should head to Steemgar websiteand also to our Discord
See you on the battlefield!
For those who are still here
Steemgar is looking for sponsors and partnerships! If you visit the site, you can see there's a space reserved to showcase each sponsor/partner. If you feel this is something you'd be interested in, feel free to contact @igster at the Steemgar's discord channel. Or if you might have some other ideas, you can always throw them at me, don't be shy.
More details about Steemgar
The service uses Steemconnect to handle your keys. Steemgar doesn't store them anywhere. Keychain integration is being looked into.
There's a new match every 12 hours. Hopefully as the service establishes itself more here, we can increase this number.
Each match requires a ticket. The player slots for each match is limited to 30 right now, meaning as soon as you know you'll be playing in the next match, you should make a payment to enter to ensure you get to play. You can pay hours before the match start and at minimum you should send it at least four minutes before.
Steemgar is meant for solo play. Teamwork is not allowed and will result in being banned. We hope to ensure the game is fair for everyone! The main goal is to have fun after all.
Everyone is equal! You can't buy anything in Steemgar to do better in game. Zero, nada, none!
Winner gets his Steem Dollar reward as a share from the ticket pool collected for that particular match, this means winner will get more Steem dollars for each player who joined the match! So share the word and enjoy bigger rewards! The minimum reward for winner will always be higher than the ticket price for the match.
To celebrate the new launch of Steemgar, the cut for the service itself will be lowered until further notice. Below you can see how the number of players in match affect the rewards for the winner
Match of 1 player: 0.15 SBD reward
Match of 5 players: 0.42 SBD reward
Match of 10 players: 0.82 SBD reward
Match of 20 players: 1.62 SBD reward
Match of 30 players: 2.42 SBD reward
That's about it in short. There's more information available at the site and in our discord.
I personally hope we get to experience many exciting matches together!

Dear #igster
It can be considered as an easy way to earn. It is very easy to play in accordance with the schedule. Let's look at everyone in this post game. The source of something is not easy. If it works on the mind, the possibility of possibility can be opened. Thank you
Dear #gentlebot
The stem provided by you, encourages a small blogger like me, that is deep in the heart. Publish language is less. But it is difficult to understand that it is a silent monopoly. Thank you for the stay with.
Well, it's easy to get a little bit of SBD if not any other players join you, if they do, it can be quite hard. But thanks for the reply and have a great day!
Good to know that Steemgar is back and that now it has a better reward system! It was weird rewarding with votes and the trail before!
Would be cool if you made a Steemgar coin on steem-engine and rewarded every player that bought a ticket, those coins could be using to buy skins and stuff that make you look cooler like agar does.
Yes, it was never intended to be a long term system. And the current one will continue to evolve as well.
Yes, that would be a great addition to the game. It is something I have to look into first as Steem-engine isn't that familiar to me. There are other plans as well for the token, if that route is the one that'll be taken. Hashing out the whole plan will take some time though.
I remember the early days when @cryptoctopus used his VP and rewards meant something. It is a really nice and simple game where one can have fun and also earn rewards. Have you considered a call to some whales that might have unused VP? @igster?
To promote the post or to reward match winners? I'll do more promotion posts along the way and hopefully Steemgar will attract some support from the bigger stake holders.
Nice that steemgar is back and working. =)
Indeed, hopefully players find their way to the game and we can get some good matches going :)
Hi and welcome here! When I started on steemit, my biggest problem was to find interesting people to interact with. So, to help newcomers getting started I created a directory with other interesting and or talented steemians to follow or interact with. Feel free to check it out at https://www.steemiandir.com I am sure it will help you find like-minded people. Enjoy your stay here and do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions!
Visit Your Directory or Website. The Idea is Good. Hope it will work well for newcomers. Can You tell how more steemians can be added in the list? Who qualifies for this list
When there's only one game per day and it's at 2am! :'(
Hey @sisygoboom, there are actually two matches per day for now. It's not a perfect situation at all and we hope to to increase that number asap but for that to happen, we need actual players joining the matches we already have. The time schedules for the current ones though can be changed.
And the second match would be at 2pm for you by the way! Hopefully you get to play in that one.
I'll keep an eye out for it, I checked at 23:00 yesterday and 16:00 today so only saw the 2am ones 😂 would be great to see more games and players, best of luck!
Thank you!
let me try this.. seems good
It's rather fun once you get multiple people battling out, more people also means more rewards for the winner so might as well get your friends to join as well
Interesting. I am starting

Posted using Partiko Android

I will try. Thanks for sharing.

Good luck! It helps if you test Agar first since the gameplay is almost the same before jumping into Steemgar match
That's great woohooo

Well I hope you find your way all the way to the matches once you do!
Random idea what if there was a team mode where it could be like red vs blue and the winning team shares the rewards among it's members
That's a game mode that could be implemented in the future, yes. I think Agar has one also and it's popular
Nice to read about it. I am new to steemgar. I heard the first time about it. Hope to try it.
And I hope that you get to give it a try too
I've been here a little while and wasn't aware of steemgar. Having watched the video, I'm still not sure what you are supposed to do, swallow the circles? 😁
Resteemed so I don't forget to give it a try!
Yes, you basically got the main goal of it. Every player starts as a small circle at the start of the match and as you eat little pellets of food, you grow larger. As you grow, you can start eating smaller players than you as well. The biggest player in the end wins the game and the price. It's a rather fun game when you manage to get many players together.
Fun.
