Pixels

Pixels is a play-and-own farming sim inspired by Stardew Valley and RuneScape that runs on the Ronin network. Played as a free-to-play title on web browsers from a top-down perspective by controlling a 2D character in a beautiful pixelated MMO world, you get to complete quests and unlock recipes as you enjoy peacefully gathering various resources and items to grow crops on public and private farms, sharing the rewards with other players.

Players can buy their own Farmland NFT to reap all the rewards while inviting friends over to plant crops and share a piece of what they grow on your turf. It’s also possible to rent an Farmland NFT, while new players are encouraged to buy the customizable Beginner Speck land using in-game earnable coins that you can gain by selling your harvested crops. Next to farming as the main available industry, players can also collect resources through other industries that include mining, woodcutting, apiary and more in the future. As you play and do various actions, you consume energy that refills by eating food as well as by letting it increase by 1% every 5 minutes.

Soccerverse

Soccerverse is a decentralized football management sim in which players can take on the role of manager, player agent, player influencer and shareholder in a fully autonomous MMO world, where each role can receive a share of the rewards. Launched in final public open beta in March 2024, the on-chain browser-based free-to-play title includes 100k+ players and 3500+ clubs from over 90 countries. Take control of a club and build your team and tactics while receiving backing for your decisions from club shareholders referred to as “influencers.” Clubs act as fractionalized DAOs that you can purchase a share of in order to gain voting power to help with making various choices such as manager appointments. Buy a share of a promising player to become their agent and earn rewards for helping conclude successful contract negotiations while affecting their morale for potentially better performances. If you’re looking for a crypto version of the Football Manager franchise, then this may be the most similar Web3 game out there.

CropBytes

CropBytes is one of if not the oldest Web3 farming sim available on Android and iOS devices since 2018. It went free-to-play in 2022, making it more accessible to raise your farming business as you grow crops, feed animals and harvest produce in an isometric 3D world in which you use produce to mine $CBX tokens, the game’s core token. Trade fungible assets with other players in an open market and use $CBX to buy utility-based NFTs.

While initially a farming game, CropBytes is now becoming a gaming ecosystem that will include a strategic PvP world-building game called CropBytes Conquest. Players will be able to engage in turn-based 1v1 battles while nurturing their own land consisting of different types of biomes.

BLOCKLORDS

BLOCKLORDS is a free-to-play medieval grand strategy game in which you build your village into a powerful fortress in a player-driven world.

Available for download for free on the Epic Games Store for Windows PCs in early access, players start off as a Farmer Hero and grow their character into their desired playstyle while gaining more unique Heroes through gameplay and the game’s official marketplace to help make your squads better and expand your dynasty. Each Hero features unique stats and traits that can significantly help in resource gathering and territorial conquest. Players can form different types of Farm Squads and Battle Squads in order to ensure maximum efficiency and productivity in crucial fields such as farming, mining, hunting, large-scale battling and more.

Sunflower Land

Sunflower Land is a Polygon-based farming game in which you raise your farm on your own island. Played from web browsers, the blockchain title consists of cute pixel art to enjoy as you peacefully grow and cook food to level up while fishing, chopping wood and expanding your island. Leveling up will allow you to unlock new areas, such as the Pumpkin Plaza, the main hub in which you can trade with other players, craft diverse items and complete deliveries from a variety of NPCs to gain rewards.
