🔥🎩 DUNGEONS & DEGENS IS LIVE 🎩🔥
Inspired by the legendary Dungeons and Dragons, we’ve created a unique gaming experience for all skill levels with a total prize pool of 4.5 Million $degen tokens up for grabs.

At Game7 we needed a tool that could track, measure and reward contributions - to provide decision-making capabilities to those who invest time and effort, rather than those who solely invest capital.
The result is Summon.

🎮 Game development tooling
📝 Smart contracts and standards
🛠 Core infrastructure
👥 Community tooling
Building a balanced game economy from Day 1 is an elusive task for any game developer.
This is even more challenging for Web3 games, where tokenized assets and P2P trading bring their own sets of complexities.
Instead, game devs should design economic control levers that…
Player-friendly experiences are the path forward for our Web3 gaming ecosystem.
For blockchain to be accepted among the gaming community, Web3 game creators need to start prioritizing fun. 🎮
As
@kroseranger
put it eloquently:
blockchain gaming -> games that use blockchain
The gaming community doesn’t want gamefi. They want games that are fun. If blockchain is to be a part of the gaming conversation it’s fun first and blockchain second. From blockchain gaming -> games that use blockchain.
