“You stumble upon an ancient tomb. You wish to plunder it of gold and treasures, but fear that there may be hidden traps and curses. You send your Soul Ba to fly and read the hieroglyphs that are barely visible on the walls.”

We are determined to stand out from what has recently become quite a crowded GameFi space by creating and delivering outstanding gaming experiences. Every day, we strive to build a fun metaverse with thrilling gameplay and plenty of opportunities for socializing, an experience that players will thoroughly enjoy while also earning and receiving rewards. Mara, the Write and Lore Creator emphasised ‘We’re aiming for Mummy to be a triple A game that stands out from the crowd. The play-and-earn mechanics are the cherry on top, a cool reward system that happens naturally while playing.‘

While initially the MMORPG will be free-to-play, the game economy is based on a play-and -earn model which features a reward system with bonuses such as gold, in-game items, and NFTs, which the player can trade for $MMY tokens. As you explore the Mummy world, wander around the Great Pyramids, recover chests, find lost tombs, discover hidden sacred places filled with items to plunder, and fight their way through the virtual world, players are rewarded with NFT treasures, gold (our in-game currency), and in-game (non-NFT) items.

Consumables, depending on what they are & their utility — weapon upgrades, spells, clothing, hideout artworks & decorations etc can be obtained in lootboxes after defeating certain bosses, earned while playing after completing quests etc or purchased from the Premium Shop as in-game items (non-NFT) or as NFTs from the Marketplace. For example, after they acquire a saddle and animal feed or they hunt and fish for the feed, players can build trust with wild animals and use them as transportation to level up by benefiting from their speed while exploring the varied landscape.

‘We have partnered with Machinations.io to design our game economy which is a very challenging task because of its mathematical and logical complexity.’ Machinations’ Game Economy Health Monitoring Service will predict and prevent economic hurdles by verifying our game economy based on large-scale simulations prior to the launch of the game and afterwards continuously audit, monitor, predict and alert on trends based on live players and market data.

‘We are developing our own Marketplace where players can sell, purchase, and trade NFTs using $MMY. The NFTs can be earned while playing the game in lootboxes after defeating a challenging boss or after completing a certain quest.’ Some NFTs have in-game utility — weapon upgrades, unlocking specific quests, the power to read some hieroglyphs and interact with NPCs, others may be artworks to decorate the hideout. Some Soul NFTs, in particular, may be rented to other players for passive income — the Ka Soul NFT can be rented for specific task such as working on the pyramids or fishing. There are nine Soul NFTs to collect for your character. Some are won ofter quests, some can be purchased. Each will allow you to experience the Mummy world in unique ways.

There is more information about their utilities in the WP (link to Soul NFTs Whitepaper page)

You have joined the Chaos faction, won many battles and crowned yourself in riches and glory. Lately, you have a change of heart. Perhaps the kingdom would prosper under the rule of Order. You wish to change factions and go to the Marketplace to purchase a Soul Ren NFT. Now the Gods know your identity has changed.

We’re very excited and passionate about what we’re creating at Mummy & hope you’ll join us on this epic journey 🤩
