Gaming is no longer just about grinding stages and leveling up. The rising popularity of blockchain and cryptocurrency brought games a whole new use case – Play to Earn (P2E)! Now, gamers can truly own in-game assets, buy/sell/trade with other users, and earn cryptocurrency rewards to make the most of their playtime. One of the most promising P2E games today would be Wild Forest. Combining competitive gameplay with an exciting rewards system, Wild Forest aims to bring a whole new audience to Web3 gaming!

What is Wild Forest?

Wild Forest is a P2E real-time strategy (RTS) blockchain game where players compete with each other in a fast-paced PvP battle. Featuring a variety of animal-like characters, players summon units, build structures, and capture territories to destroy the enemy’s main base. 

In Wild Forest, users form their own unique deck of 7 cards to use in the battle. Each card has a direct unit representation in the game with its type, stats, and abilities. Players then play these cards on the battlefield, positioning their units and structures strategically to reach their opponent. Moreover, each unit has its own strengths and weaknesses to exploit. Each match played will definitely feel different due to planning around these factors. 

Wild Forest is also free-to-play, requiring no initial investment or Web3 knowledge to begin playing. They look to simplify the onboarding process, bringing in traditional players from PC and mobile platforms. As new players begin to warm up to the game, Web3 elements are slowly introduced through clear tutorials and guides.

P2E Aspects

Wild Forest leans into the P2E aspect through their non-fungible tokens (NFTs). Each card in the game is represented by a unique NFT and can be bought, sold, or traded with other players. There are always active listings in the Mavis Market. This function makes it relatively simple to find a specific unit that one is looking for. Moreover, players can make extra money by selling units they don’t need. A big portion of rewards in Wild Forest comes through earning these Unit NFTs. 

Players can also earn rewards in $WF (Wild Forest Token), the project’s utility token. WF can be used to rank up units, which allows them to level up more, increase their stats, and can add extra abilities. Units have 5 rarities: common, uncommon, rare, epic, and legendary. Ranking up a unit requires burning NFTs of it along with an accompanying amount of WF, with each successive rank up costing more NFTs and WF. WF is also used in premium in-game purchases (Premium Battle Pass). 

Leaderboard Rewards

Wild Forest offers specific prizes to their top players every season. Ranking on the Wild Forest’s Top Leaderboard nets Trophy Packs which are filled with $WF tokens and Unit NFTs. These packs can also be traded on the Mavis Market. Getting these rewards can significantly boost one’s progress in the game. Moreover, they can also be sold to earn extra money. 

Choosing to distribute tokens only to dedicated grinders keeps the game economy afloat. Mass distribution of tokens to casual players may just cause them to sell the tokens right away for immediate profits. Rather, the game ensures that their most dedicated player base is rewarded.

Here’s the kicker. These Unit NFTs and WF can hold actual market value. Many rare Unit NFTs are actually trading at high prices. For example, certain assets are currently trading for $500–$2,000, depending on rarity and demand.

Legendary units (the highest rank) tend to sell for the most. This encourages players to rise up the ranks and gain access to better rewards. For instance, take the story of a player like Anatta.ron, who recently shared their incredible success on Wild Forest. As per the tweet, this player has amassed a staggering amount of rewards, gaining over 21000 $WF from dominating the leaderboards. Players like Anatta.ron can use their rewards to mint rarer Unit NFTs and sell them at higher prices for increased revenue. 

Currently, WF is still not listed on any exchanges. However, after WF’s token generation event (TGE), the token will be available to be withdrawn on-chain and can also be sold for more income. Wild Forest’s conscious choice of controlling WF token emission, embedding token utility with gameplay, and focusing rewards on NFTs are also positive factors in adding value to $WF. 

These aren’t the end of it! In the future, Wild Forest is looking to add more earning mechanics. For players passionate about gaming and earning, Wild Forest offers a rare combination of both. By actively participating in battles, leveling up NFTs, and trading with the community, one can claim a piece of the Wild Forest prize pool!
