About

Calvaria: Duels of Eternity is a card game in which players compete in tournaments using cards that represent different characters, each having their own unique sets of abilities. The player’s goal is to defeat opponents using complex strategies and tactics in order to get rewards and various upgrades.

The game is designed in such a way that each player can truly own the in-game resources. They can earn these either through playing or investing in the game’s ecosystem. All of this is made possible by blockchain technology, which gives players true digital ownership.

The game will feature many different game modes to accommodate players with different goals and preferences. Players will be able to compete with each other, earn tokens, complete the single player campaign, win unique cards and upgrades and participate in seasonal tournaments.

The main currency of the game is the $RIA token, which is the main component of the game’s entire economy. In addition to it within the ecosystem, there’s also an $eRIA (Earned RIA) token that allows users to earn money playing the game, use it within the game to level up their cards, and purchase in-game resources, such as upgrades or unique cards in the form of NFT tokens.

The game will also introduce an additional way of interacting with the game mechanics and the economy in the form of NFT collections, whose tokens will give their owners a strategic advantage in competitions. Along with game resources, collectible NFT tokens will be fully owned by their possessors, which opens up additional opportunities for making money on third-party NFT platforms, such as OpenSea, Rarible, etc.

Calaveras

The Calaveras are a phenomenon subject to many rumors and hearsay in the afterlife. Some believe their conception predates the war, but even that has been obfuscated by time. What is known is that in concentrations of conflict and areas where souls have been forcefully dispersed they can arise, as a swirling force gathers around one who had fallen and culminating in its reborn form. They wander the lands between Santa Muerte and Quetzalcoatl’s domain endlessly seeking the chaotic fields of battle. The conjurations Calaveras produce accelerate combat to its terrible conclusion before again walking off without a word or moment’s hesitation. When approached it is said they seem to be in flux between states of lucidity and delirium, a persistent persona of who they are or were shines through at times, and at others they seem vacant and can only offer peculiar utterances. However when attacked or attempted to be moved, the aggressors are dispatched near instantly. Now the Calaveras have come to be seen as forces of nature, as predictable as the tides and drifting like a soft breeze, but like lightning they strike indiscriminately.*The Calaveras are NFTs created for the Calvaria: Duels of Eternity game.

Mission

We see how huge the gaming industry is. At the same time, it limits the players due to the unilateral economic model that everyone has become used to. Continuing the practice of centralizing game resources and not paying dividends for time spent in the game will discredit the gaming community over the long term. We believe that players should be fully-fledged participants in the development of the in-game ecosystem, with ownership rights to resources and earnings for the time they spend in the game. This makes it possible to create an amazing gaming experience as well as to facilitate completely new and open types of interactions between users, developers and investors, where everyone has an impact on the development of the project. Thanks to this approach, the game becomes not just another seasonal entertainment, but a large living ecosystem that can develop sustainably and with many years of future growth potential. You can think of it as a kind of virtual nation with its own government, where every user counts. In turn, we as a development team must ensure that the project’s economy grows as smoothly and sustainably as possible during the initial stages, until it can regulate and support itself independently without additional incentives.

All of the above game features are made possible thanks to NFT and blockchain technology. Almost all resources inside the game will be ERC-721 NFT tokens, which will directly belong to their owners. The owners in turn are free to fully utilize them as they see fit: as example they can either own or trade them. Each user will be rewarded with ERC-20 $eRIA tokens for their time spent in the game. Just like NFTs, they will belong to their owner, who will be able to own or sell them. The $RIA tokens, as the backbone of the Calvaria: DoE economy, have the same capabilities.

We have also begun to notice that a problem is starting to emerge among “Play to Earn” games that has also become apparent to many investors and gamers around the world: Most games are too simple or not well-developed enough to provide real enjoyment. Game projects are launched for the sake of the hype they generate, but they are short-lived, since they have neither a vision nor a realistic plan. As soon as the reward decreases due to either a change in the market value of the asset or a change in the reward system made by the development team, most projects experience a decline in interest because their product fails to attract a large audience.

First of all, we understand that there can be no compromises in terms of quality. A game with really gratifying mechanics, interactivity, and complexity allowing for a competitive aspect — that’s what we consider a basic requirement. The project should not be solely dependent on a “Play to Earn” system. Rather, it should be a pleasant addition to the game, the experience of which will only be enhanced by this system.

In consideration of the above, we decided to create a card game due to both the popularity of such games and their moderate learning curves for new players. In addition, in order to enhance interest and engagement, we’ve created a unique setting and accompanying narrative about the afterlife, which is a frontier that very few games explore. If we prioritize player enjoyment and make the “Play to Earn” mechanic a secondary motivation, then the project’s longevity will be guaranteed by an ever-growing audience.
