In yesterday's tweet we told you about the upcoming MojoMelee gameplay from our partner Planet Mojo, who offers a mysterious alien world to explore in their upcoming MojoMelee game. Let's take a look at the rest of the game mechanics.

SpellStones

Mojos use SpellStones to wield magic from the Aura of Planet Mojo. In Mojo Melee, SpellStones unleash a single powerful ability that is used at the start of combat. SpellStones are tied to Mojo subclasses and can only be used by the Mojos of that subclass. Each team can equip two SpellStones.

SpellStones that give boons to a player’s units can be attached to their Champions or Mojo. A unit can have up to two SpellStones attached to it, so keep an eye out for fun buff combos.

SpellStones that damage enemy units are set on the opponent’s side of the arena. By doing so, a player needs to make a prediction about where their opponent’s units will be placed.

Game Types: Ranked and Unranked

There are two game types — ranked and unranked. Both include duel and brawl as game modes. Unranked games provide a more casual setting for players to try out new team formations or to learn the game’s mechanics, while ranked games offer greater rewards and more intense competition.

Unranked Games:

Players can win XP from battles and Ore from Quests.

Ranked Games:

Earn XP from battles.

Gain Ore by winning matches or completing Quests and Challenges.

Season-long event with rewards.

Quests

Quests are daily activities that involve unranked and ranked gameplay. Each Quest has a set of goals that players must complete to gain rewards.

Quest Rules:

l A player will have 3 daily Quests to complete per day.

l Completed Quests will be renewed daily.

l Players can refresh each Quest slot once per day to draw a new Quest.

Over time, we plan to expand and enhance the Quest system.

Collection Tiers

As you collect more Planet Mojo NFTs in your wallet, your Collection Tier will increase. Progressing to higher Collection Tiers grants players many benefits, including Challenge Points that are needed to take on Challenges that offer additional rewards.

Challenges

A player engaging in ranked gameplay can initiate a Challenge to earn additional rewards upon completion.

The player completes a Challenge by winning a number of ranked games without suffering too many losses.

There are two ways to start a Challenge:

l Spend Challenge Points, which are gained from Collection Tier rewards.

l Spend BattleStones, which are rewards from completing Activities and winning Tournaments.

Players will unlock more advanced Challenges as their rank goes higher. These Challenges have higher starting costs, but offer bigger rewards.

BattlePasses

Mojo Melee has two types of BattlePasses, a “Free BattlePass” and a “Premium BattlePass”.

BattlePasses reward players based on their play and give players extra perks based on which BattlePass they own.

The Free BattlePass is free as the name states and gameplay earns a player BattlePass progress leading to Ore and BattleStone rewards.

Players can upgrade to the Premium BattlePass through various means including using tokens, stable coins, or by having a high enough Collection Tier. By upgrading to the Premium BattlePass players will earn additional, unique rewards, access to special events and exclusive content.

Free Players & Leveling Up NFTs

Mojo Melee is available to players even if they do not yet own any Planet Mojo NFTs.
