Phase 0.5 of the Maze Game is almost here. We have finished community beta-testing and have received great feedback from our community members. We have also added a few things and adapted them with the feedback in mind. Phase 0.5 is now very near, so we wanted to go deep into character gameplay and internal game mechanics.

Energy

In order to explore and traverse the maze and all its resources, you would need Energy. Energy is a separate stat and each NFT that explores the maze has.

Energy will regenerate every 12 hours. The regeneration will happen at 0:00 UTC, and 12:00 UTC.

There will be a Base Energy. This is the Energy all NFTs have before upgrades. For Alice and Queens, the Base Energy will be 500 Energy. For Cards, the Base Energy will be 300 Energy.

Stat upgrades will affect Energy directly. The Energy from Stats is calculated by taking your stats and multiplying them with a multiplier.

The max stat for each type of Card with the Multiplier is in the table below.

Energy from Stats= ∑ (Stat points* Multiplier)

For example: For Clubs, the Energy from Stats can be calculated as such.

Thus, the total energy for each type of Cards will be:

Maze Size and Items

Maze size: 1024x1024
Walkable Area: 50%
Items Reward Area: 7%

For this first phase, there are only four items that can be found in the maze: Cupcake, Wooden Chest, Gold Chest, and Legendary Chest. These items will only be found in the reward squares. The drop rates for the items are.

Leaderboard Scores

For Phase 0.5, we will have 6 leaderboards for each Character Type. There will be separate leaderboards for Alice, Queen, Clubs, Diamonds, Spades, and Hearts.

The leaderboard will be based on an NFTs total Maze Score. Every time you play the maze game, a score will be calculated. For an epoch, the scores of all of your attempts are added.

Scores will be added every time you spend energy to find items inside the game based on the multiplier given below. However, every time you are hit by the obstacle Boulder, the score will be decreased instead.

The top scorer in each NFT type every epoch will get a Legendary Chest! Are you excited to wander the wonderful maze?
