Wonder Game
4 min readFeb 14, 2023

We are in the process of creating a pre-alpha version of our game that incorporates most of the elements from the Maze Game. This will have limited features and serve as an introduction to Phase 1.

Levels

The Maze Game has been divided into Levels. The first level would be pre-alpha and would contain very minimal gameplay.

As each level changes, we get introduced to new scenery of the maze, as well as different changes to the gameplay of the maze itself. Levels will gradually introduce new features and build on the Maze.

Maze

There will be one singular maze that people can explore in the mini-game, and that will change periodically over an epoch of three days. Players will be able to enter the maze and search for items. While roaming around the maze, players burn their energy. They will have fixed energy to explore the maze.

Maze Stats

Maze size: 1024x1024

Walkable Area: 40–50%

Items Drop Rate: 7%

Character NFTs

All three Character NFTs will be able to explore the maze during this phase. This will not be true for any subsequent phase after this.

Cards, Queens and Alices will be able to wander the maze to find items and one special item hidden amongst the chests. One item that will be helpful to the Queen as she begins to create her own maze.

Energy

Every Character will have some Energy to explore the maze. We will start with a certain amount of base Energy, and as you upgrade your NFT, your energy will increase. The Energy will be a weighted sum of the stats of the NFT.

Keep in mind, in the later version of Phase 1, the Energy of NFT will be derived from the ‘Stamina’ stats, and the energy recharging mechanism will depend on ‘Rest’ stats.

Energy will recharge every 12 hours. Energy will regenerate at the same time for every NFT, at 0:00 and 12:00 UTC. All energy changes as a result of upgrades will be in effect after 12 pm UTC.

For more information on how the energy of an NFT can be calculated, please refer to this article.

Item Rewards

The Pre-Alpha phase will only have 2 types of in-game rewards: Food and Treasure Chests.

Food: Scattered around the maze, there will be food items. Food will be consumed immediately after finding it and will reward you with energy. For the Pre-Alpha phase, there will only be one food item (Cupcake) giving you 15 energy after consumption.

Cupcake gives you 15 Energy

In the later version of Phase 1, there will be multiple food items, with varying levels of energy regeneration.

Treasure Chests: There will be three types of Treasure Chests available in this maze: Wooden Chest, Golden Chest, and the Legendary Chest.

For this phase, the chests will be just a collectible. The data is stored in the backend and will be updated on the chain in a later phase. The chests can be opened and traded in Phase 1. The chests and what they contain will be revealed later.

Among these, only the Legendary chests will be tradable.

Obstacles and Sheilds

There will be many obstacles inside the maze. For this phase, there is a rolling boulder obstacle. Upon contact with the boulder, your Score will be decreased by 100.

You can avoid being hit by the ball by walking around the maze or simply by pressing ‘K’ to activate the shield.

The magical Sheild spawns around your character and protects you from the strike of the Rolling Boulder. 1 charge of Shield is gained for every 100 steps walked around the maze.

Leaderboard

The leaderboard will be divided based on NFT type. We would have 6 leaderboards in total for Clubs, Spades, Hearts, Diamonds, Alices, and Queens.

The top scorer in each category will receive a Legendary Chest.
