Concept Art House’s partner Dustland created a fictional character around their BAYC ape called buster_dustland, the first ape in a voice-based adventure game.
Let’s follow Concept Art House to take a more detailed look at the first game combined with token economy, Dustland Runner.
Dustland Runner is the world's first voice-based blockchain game to provide fitness proof. Running in the real world can advance the narrative and earn virtual rewards including exclusive NFTs and DOSE tokens, known as "play-to-earn", and we call it "move-to-earn".
In Dustland, the more you move, the more rewards you get. In other words, by exercising to get rewards, the more tasks users complete, the more rewards they get. For example, users can can be used to level up characters, improve stats, and get through more dangerous tasks to obtain greater rewards by using collected items and resources.
This game is also a sequel to "Zombies, Run!", users can explore the storyline while running, and the brain must follow the pace and move together! No matter where the user is - home, gym, office, or outdoors - they can enter the game with one click, choose the appropriate mode and duration, and start an adventure of "run-to-earn".
In the game, users can unlock various advanced functions, new props, exclusive teaching voice packs and other rewards by completing the game, and at the same time win in-game DOSE tokens, NFTs, etc.
Background: A Courier's Wilderness Survival Story
In the game, the user is a free courier specialist, whose job is to complete the bounty courier task in this place called "Dustlands". As the saying goes, "Just go where the work is", but as a novice, the user does not have an exclusive car, and can only rely on two legs - trot, fast, sprint or walk! Of course, during the game, users will gradually obtain various props, equipment, etc., and the voice system will also give users various prompts. The game will record the user's running distance, duration, calories burned and other sports-related information, which can be connected with the fitness APP on the user's mobile phone, allowing users to share their game results in social software with one click!
However, the core of Dustland Runner's game is running distance, not speed, so it is a fitness game suitable for all users regardless of whether the user usually works out or not. With unlimited locations, the game is suitable for both indoor and outdoor scenarios. The user's movement trajectory in the game will not be restricted by the actual movement location.
Gameplay: More Than Running
Users can select the "job (task)" they want to pick up in Bounty Boards. Delivering couriers in the wilderness is a risky task. In addition to running all the time, users also need to be careful of robbers or monsters in the desert to protect themselves and the couriered goods. After completing each task, users will get rich rewards. It should be noted that the user's cargo box is also a sought-after asset, so be sure to watch it!
In the game, the user needs to turn on the GPS positioning function of the smartphone, and the game can automatically recognize the completion of the running task. At the same time, users need to bind the Polygon (Matic) wallet, so that game rewards (including NFTs) can be used outside of Dustland Runner. Vehicles and other NFT props and equipment have different rarity levels to correspond to different driving force, speed, defensive power, attack power and other attributes in the game. Of course, like many blockchain games, in-game land resources, cultural relics (Relics NFTs), and Augmentation Crystals are also graded. In addition to direct purchases, some NFTs will drop randomly as a reward for completing tasks.
As this is a voice game, users must remember to wear headphones. Listening to voice commands is the key to playing Dustland Runner: real-time understanding of the user's running information, whether there is a "dangerous" approach, what the weather is like, and more. In the process of completing tasks, users will also know all kinds of secrets about this land, and get to know those unknown tribes...
