Valannia is a strategy MMO game built on the Solana blockchain, integrating web3, NFTs, and crypto into a single platform. Inspired by the medieval fantasy era, players take the role of different avatars belonging to one of the 8 factions in the game.
It’s a socially active game where players interact with the Valannia universe through immersive gameplay and navigate its dynamics, including buying and selling assets, gathering resources, creating powerful items, and making decisions through DAO. Valannia is built to deliver a fun and exciting experience for players while exploring play to earn opportunities.
Valannia combines traditional MMO with real-time strategy (RTS) in an open world where players play in combat mode, control their avatars, and command the troops. Players have the freedom to choose a game style according to their personality. For instance, passive players who like to stay behind the curtain can take and hone the role of a merchant, while socially active players can play as active members of the tavern in the capital city.
At the same time, there are options to go on adventures looking for treasures or follow a disinclined life by pursuing a life of military regimen. Players, while living their lives in one of the eight cities of the Valannia universe.
Players interact with the Valannia universe in Green, Yellow, and Red zones. Green Zone is the social interaction circle where players engage with each other, trade, shop, build houses, etc. Then there’s the Yellow Zone, which begins outside the capitals and can be used for combat. Yellow zones are abundant with riches, and players can extract them, but they are also risky, as anyone can attack anybody.
The Red Zone is the deepest area of Valannia, which houses several unexplored and unknown secrets. Since the risk of entering the Red Zone is the highest, the rewards players can extract by exploring this area are also the highest. If a player dies in the Yellow Zone, they will lose some percentage of their inventory and have to repair their inventory. But dying in the Red Zone means permanently losing all assets, including NFTs.
Valannia has a massive in-game economy focusing on raw materials, resources, and in-game items, which players can trade any on the marketplace. The in-game economy runs with Valannium Gold, which is not a token. Then there are resources, Valannia tokens, and gems.
