Blockchain action RPG Realms of Alurya (also known as Synergy Land) is now officially live on Treasure mainnet, opening up the game for everyone to jump in and play for free while potentially earning NFTs along the way.
Following multiple playtests over the past 2 years and a migration to Treasure’s chain, the mainnet release is now finally here, launching with a host of fun gameplay features that help create a fully-fledged and engaging web3 gaming experience. Some of the core features include dungeon crawling gameplay with NFT rewards, pets, island management, and a player-driven economy.
Titled as “The Path of the Hero” update, this launch adds in new exciting dungeons to explore and battle in while trying to find resources and valuable loot hidden deep behind the many enemies that await those who dare venture inside these dangerous areas. Venturing into these dungeons is limited by an energy system, with 1 energy consumed per dungeon run. You get 1 energy for free every 6 hours, but you can only have up to 4 energy available at the same time. It’s possible to buy energy If you don’t want to wait for it to regenerate. Even as a free to play gamer, you have a chance of obtaining NFTs from dungeons.
You don’t have to go alone in search of unique rewards though. While there doesn’t seem to be co-op support yet, with this release, you can now have your own Aluryan Pets accompany you on your adventures. These companions are said to play an important role in gameplay, as they offer various benefits and advantages thanks to their unique abilities. They can provide different buffs, help in battle, and even unlock special in-game content, with some quests requiring ownership of specific pets in order to complete them. All pets are NFTs, and they come in 5 different types that you can purchase through the game’s new store alongside other exclusive NFTs. There is also a chance of getting them as rare dungeon drops in the form of pet eggs. While pets currently seem to have dungeon skills only, in the future they should also end up having island skills as well, providing buffs for farming and more.
Outside of dungeon crawling gameplay, you can manage your very own island. While everyone does get free land, the majority of benefits from land are unlocked by owning an island NFT. By owning an NFT island, you might be able to earn Seeds of Evolution NFTs, which can be used to hatch pet eggs into baby pets.
All of these features help form a complete web3-powered, player-driven economy, delivering an action-packed and engaging blockchain gaming experience in which you can play to earn NFTs for free.
You can easily start playing Realms of Alurya by creating an account and downloading the game launcher from the official website. After you download the launcher, you can download and install the web3 game itself, and dive right in into a vibrant fantasy world that combines farming and crafting mechanics with dungeon crawling action RPG gameplay, all backed by the Treasure mainnet. The Treasure gaming ecosystem was previously on Arbitrum, but ended up moving on late last year to launch a layer 2 network on ZKsync.
The game is only available on Windows PCs at the time of writing. A mobile release is arriving at some point in the future, but not in the short term, according to a Discord message from the game's community manager. Here are the official minimum and recommended system requirements:
