On May 30, Anton from the Cryptobots team was invited in Laplap gamefi AMA.
a.Questions prepared by Laplaper.
b. Open questions from community members.
Laplap:Hi, I'm Kaki from Laplap, host for today, Welcome to today's Laplap Gamefi AMA series about CryptoBots.It is a great pleasure to have Anton from the CryptoBots team as a guest today.
CryptoBots:I'm CBDO at Cryptobots. I have been in crypto from 2017, have seen a lot of dumps and flights to the moon.
we are Cryptobots - the first ever P2E game made in 2017. We also have one of the first NFT collections ever - called Classic Cryptobots, which was also one of the first on Opensea.
The game operated for about two years and was suspended due to the market downturn.
A:We have a very solid board of co-founders both in Crypto and Gaming business. Simon, Dmitry and Alex are co-founders of two very successful gaming studios - Playneta and Playkot. Playkot runs one of the best mobile RPG battlers in the world - Age of Magic and Alex helps the team with his experience in building best games in this genre.
We are focusing on building a very sustainable in-game economy by implementing such mechanics as zero sum game in which one player loses the same as the winning party gets, much more in-game ways to spend the money and moreover our goal is to onboard as many traditional mobile games players as possible and to make a game that is so fun to play that many people are willing to spend money there and that transforms the game from play2earn for play-and-earn.
This will be possible due to our vast experience in traditional mobile games. Speaking of the new Cryptobots Game, it will be a P2E turn-based strategy with arena battles set in the futuristic space metaverse. However, the key is that we do not aim for just a battler in the space thematic, its much much bigger. The player economy is massive - a real metaverse with countless p2e mechanics where you can battle on arenas and tournaments, become a bot manufacturer or trader, produce spaceships, send your ship to the exploration missions to earn real buck, provide services on your land or use it to mine resources and much much more!

We are also proud to have Konstantin Lomashuk as our co-founder who is a real OG in crypto, the founder of p2p.org and genesis investor in most of the biggest companies in crypto space.And we are a project with history from 2017. I see not many project with such history
A:We have dual token system: BITS and OIL tokens. BITS token is main token for the game. Limited quantity token that can be acquired for performing in-game activities or as a payment for goods. This token is set to be used in in-game player-driven DAOs and as a requirement to participate in end-game content
In-game trades or payments, be it a p2p payment for services or a marketplace purchase, includes an underlying fee paid in the governance token. While moving from bots to ships is the evolution of the battle system, socially the end game is in-game DAOs: alliances.Governance token is what makes the meta-content and social aspects of the gameplay work as intended while providing players with complete influence over how the in-game world develops.
OlL token is in0-game token. The in-game token is a system to support everyday player activities: In arenas, the token is granted for victories and achievements and in daily quests, tokens are rewarded as in-game items and directly for completing missions.
Both our NFT collections are on Ethereum but the game and will launch on Polygon
A:First we are going to release a game in June. Before that we will have Battle for The Land events. We have combined a betatest with a tournament. What is the prize?
The prize of tournament is 30% of super valuable lands. Buying a land you re becoming a landlord who owns a piece of planet in bots universe.
What can you do with land? First, every alliance need a base just to be created. And base can only be constructed on a piece of land. Second, you can place some facilities in your land such as repairment, upgrade plants. And as a NFT land lord you get the income from all economy loops that are going though your land.
Lands gameplay will be a grand economy strategy that requires social interaction to share and gain resources necessary for players' value growing all based on true blockchain ownership.
And land amount is limited to 10K. You wont be able to breed a land comparing to NFT bots. So they are a limited asset with high demand
A:The basic game is a collectible RPG battler just as Axie but with much richer gameplay: not only basic Cryptobots battles but also building Spaceship, spaceships battles, exploring spane and new planets, forming clans for big clans' battles of space fleets.
Tiny amount of the gameplay can be seen here: https://demo.cryptobots.me/
Also alliances can build a battle cruiser: a big piece of spaceship and wage space war between alliances
A:All the game is centered around Bots, and we make sure that the utility for those bad boys is to the roof.
Here is link for playable NFT collection.
Utility of Genesis bots are:
We will have the best rewards on the game launch and the first people to enter any crypto game are always the most lucky to get the best rewards. We have a very tiny amount of Cryptobots available - only for about 3000 teams to play. And the maximum rewards will be split between these first teams. Moreover at the gamelaunch there will be a lot of demand for the Cryptobots at the marketplace and their prices will probably go up but the only players who will be able to breed new Bots and benefit from it will be the owners of Genesis Cryptobots.
Another utility is that you use Genesis Bots to get 100% guaranteed access and play in the Battle for the Lands where you get NFT lands on the starting planet!
A:The economy model build by Axie Infinity team and copied by most of current games on the market is very dependent on the user base growth and collapses once there is not enough inflow of new users. Cryptobots from the start aimed to fix it.
We are building a long-term stable and balanced economy Only real APYs, sustainable long-term. Our APYs will rich 200-300% for the best players and up to 100% for an average player which is not comparable to 100-1000x in other games and similar projects
So there will be different revenue streams: prized for bots battles and spaceship battles, exploration bonuses, profit from land with production buildings, alliances wars, breeding, fusing and transmuting of bots and spaceships
We will have d eep economy to ensure long-term gaming engagement: to get to the high-end content the players would need to retain the value in the game for a long time and the economy is built to encourage long-term investments We are aiming to build a game the players will enjoy playing and will be willing to spend money for cosmetic improvements of their in-game characters, pay-to-win and have fun playing. Just as in traditional games.
We aim to attract tens of millions of non-crypto gamers to the crypto space. We have a vast traditional marketing experience in Playneta studio that we will use to onboard a lot of non-crypto gamers to Cryptobots through ASO, performance marketing (paid Facebook and Google ads) - not only word of mouth as existing games on the market.
We aim to extract additional value from the blockchain ecosystem (blockchain network, wallet, DEX etc) and use it for marketing Cryptobots
