Why not go check out the Mavia Website as soon as you’ve finished reading this article.
The public beta test for the game is scheduled for sometime in Q3 of 2022 with v1.0 expected in Q4 of the same year. If your even a little interested you should go set reminders on your calendar because you are not going to want to miss this.
Game Concept
Heroes of Mavia is an online multiplayer blockchain game in which you, the player, can use your base and army to wage mighty battles with other players on the fantasy inspired Mavia island. You are the commander of your base and by strength your strategic brilliance stand to claim real cryptocurrency through defeating your opponents.
In essence Heroes of Mavia is a base builder/defender game where you need to decide which defensive structures to errect as protection and which troops to train for attacking purposes. You need access to one of the NFT lands to build a base. Don’t stop reading now if you find yourself lacking in the required funds traditionally needed to purchase such an NFT because on Mavia you can also rent from or partner with other landowners to get in and start battling for profits.
Gameplay
Your goal is to build up your base by spending the three primary resources namely Gold, Oil and Ruby gained from conquering other players bases. The stronger your base the more able you are in defending it and through other elements like statues you are able to augment the bases ability to generate resources or speed up unit creation. How you deploy your resources is critical for your success because if you focus too much on one element or the other you weaken yourself in others.
Gameplay becomes increasingly challenging as players develop their base and bolster their combative units and their related skills. The smaller or weaker an opponents base the less you earn from defeating them but the same applies where you earn more the stronger they are. Who you are matched with is determined by player skill level. You will be able to attack and be attacked by others in the same or similar skill level so the game will always stay engaging and no one will ever get so OP that it stops being fun.
In Game Units
Troops
In the land of Mavia you will have access to several different units to fight or defend with. There are Vehicle, Infantry and Air units each with distinct strengths and weaknesses. You can upgrade the statistics and aesthetics of your troops.
Walls
Walls are your first line of defense for your base and the buildings within. You place these in such a way as to direct your aponants troops into traps. Walls are also upgradable.
Traps
The traps are most commonly hidden from your enemy’s view so strategic placement can help whittle away at those pesky pilferers trying to get at your resources.
Buildings
The defensive buildings are used to cut down your opponents troops and can have power and durability improved through upgrades.
HQ
Your headquarters form the central foundation of your base and allow you to deploy more advanced buildings, troops and traps upon upgrade.
NFT Heroes
The heroes are the cream of the crop combat units. These heroes can not only can they be used to attack opponents but they also defend your base. Blessed with Special Powers these bad boys and girls add a definite edge to your overall chance of success.
NFT Statues
Statues are a great way to boost things like base stats, production rates and more.
Passive Earning
So you certainly do benefit greatly, through $RUBY earning, from playing the game but you can also earn while you sleep, or really any other “offline” activity. If you focus on strengthening your base defenses you will earn $RUBY when your base defends itself and survives with little to no damage.
