Axie: Den of Mysteries Launches on Ronin
Onchain Heroes has officially launched Axie: Den of Mysteries (Axie: DoM), a new engaging dungeon crawler game on the Ronin network. Designed for brief yet thrilling gaming sessions, each lasting between 3-5 minutes, the game allows players to dive quickly into action, collecting treasures and competing in a unique reward structure.
Innovative Gameplay Mechanics
To participate, players must purchase Keys, priced around $2 each, available for purchase using ETH, AXS, RON, or USDC. These Keys are not merely entry tokens but enhance the player’s ability to collect valuable loot during each dungeon run. The number of Keys used can influence the quantity and quality of loot drops and increases the player’s chances of receiving game-enhancing Blessings.
The gameplay involves navigating the dungeon using a fixed amount of Stamina (100 points), which is consumed with each action taken. Players can battle enemies to find extra Stamina, uncover hidden treasures, and collect Shards, enhancing the interactive experience with strategic elements like teleportation Gates and healing Fountains.
Structured Rewards System
The treasures gathered during the dungeon runs are tallied weekly, with players able to claim their share of the rewards in USDC, proportional to their efficiency and success in collecting treasures throughout the week. The game’s economic model is fueled by the sale of Keys: 60% of these funds are allocated to player rewards, 30% support the Blessing Pool, and the remaining 10% aids ongoing game development.
Additionally, a total of $20,000 in bAXS is allocated over four weeks, offering the top 100 Shard collectors weekly cash prizes amounting to $5,000 in bAXS.
Facing the Dungeon Boss and Earning Blessings
A central feature of the game is the Werewolf boss, with an 8% chance to encounter this formidable foe between the 7th and 15th floors of the dungeon. Defeating the Werewolf not only yields direct USDC rewards but also replenishes the player’s Stamina, allowing for extended gameplay. Various Blessings are awarded based on the player’s performance against the Werewolf, further enriching the gaming experience.
According to a representative from Onchain Heroes, “We’ve seeded the prize pool with $20,000 in bAXS. With Axie: DoM, we aim to create a self-sustaining game where players can earn while enjoying their time in the Den.”
For interested gamers, Axie: DoM is accessible via axiedom.xyz, inviting players worldwide to explore this innovative gaming landscape, strategize their play, and compete for substantial rewards in an expanding ecosystem.
