Hey. I’m Gameunculus Community manager and we created this article for all people who are interested in crypto games.There are still many prejudices and myths about crypto games. Some people say that they are dull and out of date. The others believe that all crypto games are scam or gambling. But what the F crypto games are and why it’s not (always) a scam?Let’s try to bring all the facts together.Firstly, a couple of words about crypto games: “Crypto games, also called blockchain games or gaming dapps, are online games (mobile or PC) who’s code is partly or entirely run on a blockchain”. So I believe it’s clear for everyone. Let’s move on.Crypto games are not 100% decentralized.Blockchain technology does allow full decentralization, but no crypto game is 100% decentralized. They just lean heavily towards decentralization in the spectrum, while normal console video games are far on the centralized end. This diet decentralization is beneficial for the gamers in at least one way: games can run faster and include more complex gameplay if part or all of their code is off-chain.What about trustlesness?During the earliest stages of a game’s career you can’t possibly know whether a game will pick up or not. Another problem is that even on the blockchain, a game can still be abandoned by devs, which might eventually bring down the price of your assets. It’s not a perfect system, but crypto games still come out with an advantage over fully centralized games in this case.Different genres, different risk.Crypto games are divided on several types, such as:Hot Potato games;Collectibles, with and without gameplay;RPG, MMORPG, Strategy, Idle and others;Gambling;Off-chain crypto games.Risk depends on a genre of a game. So before playing you need to look at all pros and cons. And remember to never invest more than you can afford.More details here: https://ift.tt/2qHKVae it was useful. Stay tuned!
