Crypto Rumble is a Web3 match-3 RPG game built on the Zypher Network game engine. At the beginning of each match, players select three heroes from their hero pool to form a team. They can also equip their heroes with gear from their inventory to boost specific stats. The ultimate goal in each match is to defeat a BOSS with varying attributes.
Battle Mechanics
The battle against the BOSS is turn-based. During the player's turn, they need to match blocks in a match-3 style game. When blocks are successfully cleared, the player's three heroes attack the BOSS. The effectiveness of the attacks depends on the heroes' attributes, levels, and quality, as well as the number of blocks cleared in one move—the more blocks cleared, the higher the damage inflicted on the BOSS.
Matches usually have a limited number of moves. The game is won if the BOSS is defeated before the moves run out. Conversely, the game is lost if all heroes fall or the BOSS remains undefeated after the moves are exhausted.
Heroes as Core Elements
Heroes are the most critical element in the game. Players need strategic thinking to choose different hero combinations to counter BOSS attributes effectively. Upgrading and enhancing hero quality is essential to improve gameplay in PvE battles and gain higher rewards and authority in PvP modes. Before diving into the Crypto Rumble universe, let’s explore the heroes in detail.
Hero Introduction
In Crypto Rumble, both heroes and BOSSes fall into one of three attributes: Mage, Assassin, or Warrior. Currently, there are nine heroes available for players to choose from, with three heroes under each attribute. Each hero has unique skill-based damage capabilities.
Attribute Counter System
The game features a counter system among attributes:
-
Warrior beats Assassin
-
Mage beats Warrior
-
Assassin beats Mage
When a hero's attribute counters the BOSS's attribute, an advantage is triggered, granting the hero a 50% damage bonus. Conversely, if the hero is countered by the BOSS's attribute, a disadvantage is triggered, and the BOSS receives 50% damage reduction. This system highlights the importance of selecting the right lineup to optimize damage output against various BOSSes.
Hero Levels
Heroes have levels ranging from 1 to 100, and players can level up their heroes by consuming experience points (earned through gameplay and completing tasks) and in-game currency, $Gold tokens. Each level-up increases the hero’s stats such as attack, defense, agility, and stamina. Higher levels require more experience points and $Gold tokens.
Hero Quality
In addition to levels, heroes have quality tiers: Common, Elite, and Legendary. Players can fuse identical heroes and consume $Diam tokens to enhance their quality. Upgrading hero quality significantly boosts their stats.
Stamina System
Every hero in Crypto Rumble has stamina points (VIT), starting at 1,000 VIT. These points are consumed during battles and do not regenerate automatically. Players need to use $Diam tokens to replenish stamina, with the required amount varying based on the hero's rarity—the rarer the hero, the higher the cost.
How to Obtain Heroes?
Mystery Boxes
Mystery boxes are the primary way to obtain heroes in Crypto Rumble. Players can purchase mystery boxes using $Diam tokens from the in-game store. Opening a mystery box yields a random hero of any profession, with a chance to acquire high-quality heroes such as Elite or Legendary.
Treasure Ark Event
Whitelist Players can also participate in the Treasure Ark event to earn mystery boxes by staking assets (https://ark.zypher.network/). For every 0.001 ETH staked, players receive 3 hero test boxes for Crypto Rumble.
The event will distribute 1,000 hero mystery boxes, each containing heroes to strengthen players' teams. There is no limit to the number of boxes a single player can earn. Note that mystery boxes purchased using $Diam tokens are non-tradable.
