NEWBIES INITIATIVE TASK 6 || BLOCKCHAIN GAMES & SPLINTERLANDS
Greetings everyone...
It's my pleasure to present to you our task 6 which is the last since the newbies initiative started. The team members behind this initiative have gone the extra length to unravel different ways of achieving good growth in this blockchain and I can't appreciate them enough for this free knowledge with amazing support so far.

When I joined this blockchain, I was told to always engage in other people's posts and not just to dump my post and leave, and wait for a miracle to happen. So I was visiting as many posts as I can and I kept reading and hearing splinterland card this and that, renting, game, battle, etc. Well, it sounded so strange and I thought this particular game was meant for some certain hiveans, I didn't know that anyone can play the game 🤦 , so I always skip such posts, lolz...you wouldn't blame a newbie, or would you? 🤩🤩 The picture is becoming a bit clearer now, especially after my encounter with this topic via our last Discord live meeting where @ksam did justice to this topic.
So in this task, I am gonna summarize my understanding of the tutorial given to us by answering the following questions but before that, get to know what BLOCKCHAIN GAME IS ALL ABOUT
These are games played for fun and pleasure and by doing so, you earn cryptocurrency, and NFTs (Non fungible tokens), and trade your coins in the marketplace. Simply put, it's a play-to-earn game; amazing, isn't it?
Unlike other games we play using our phones including Nokia torch phones and stay glued on it for hours while trying to defeat an invisible opponent just for fun anyway, without earning from it, this blockchain game is UNIQUE because it offers you a lot of earnings while enjoying your games
Now, unto the questions...
| Mention 3 Blockchain games and their in-game currency/currencies. |
|---|
The 3 blockchain games I know are the :
Splinterlands: the in-game currency is splintershards
Rising star game: the in-game currencies are the starbits/star pro
Axie: the in-game currencies are the axs/slp
| What do you understand by NFTs? Of what use are they? How can you acquire/sell them? |
|---|
NFTs are digital or electronic assets that represent objects in the real-world like: art, images, music, in-game assets, video, and historical items.
NFT are non fungible (not replaceable) tokens, that can be used for gaming purposes like the splinterlands cards. It can represent an art. When you see an NFT you like, you can decide to purchase it and keep it as an art.
OF WHAT USE ARE NFTs?
They can be used in the game, they can be rented out to other players for a fee and they can be auctioned in the game marketplace at a higher price
HOW CAN YOU ACQUIRE/SELL THEM?
You can acquire them by minting them
and you sell them in *NFT market place.

The 4 levels of card Rarity in splinterlands are :

This section is not compulsory but, it's very important. However, I have created an account already but have yet to buy the spell book which cost $10. I had to hold on to this because I am not yet conversant with the games and the battle involved. I needed more learning before jumping into it Though, it's important to note that you stand the chance of earning a lot when you give this game detailed attention. I was made to understand that only blogging about the games "may" earn you a good curation by the steemMonsters account plus other coins you might be winning and giveaway participation. So I think this game is worth a try 👌
I want to humbly show my gratitude to all the people behind the newbie's growth in this blockchain. It's been an amazing learning curve so far and I am elated. Thank you so much!👍
Omo you're in form o, the way you just load us with post and now done with the task ahead of everyone, show my the way na.
You did a great job here, and I've learn few new detail here.
Keep up the good work and I wish you all the best.
Hahaha
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.....too much post?🤦🤦
I am just trying to be consistent .
Thanks for your warm sweet comment 👍
Smile that's good, just joking.
You're welcome, sha show me the way.
The way is very straight and bright 🤩🤩🤩👍
This is so good Ma'am, you did a really good job coming up with this write-up. It was as if I was reading another post from a professional. You explained a lot and it only means you have taken your time to digest the lesson very well.
I've also tried opening a splinterland account but I stopped at that Sam point because money was involved and I didn't want to get anything wrong. @ksam please, what can you say about that? Should we go ahead? If we should what is it are we going to see next? I hope to be part of the game 😪.
Ma'am, like I said before you did a really good job, it's always motivating to read from you, I hope I get my entry in soon too.
You can play and practice without paying anything! But you can't earn anything using that free mode.
I hope that answers your question haunty 😁
Yes, thank you. So that free mode can we do a video of us playing that one as an entry for the second party of the task?
It isnt necessary to do a video
Just a screenshot for proof and the link of the Battle will do.
So that you don't have to go through 3speaks and all the wahala involved with attaching videos since it'll be a short video
Okay, that's true.
I'm still trying to login but nothing is working oo 😏.
Na wa ooo
This one na real village people 😏
But shey you've already registered abi??
No.
Can we talk?
Alright
Awwwwwn
Here she goes again with her beautiful sweet comments 🥰🥰🥳
Thank you so much my dear👍
I'm blushing 🤭🤭, you're welcome Ma'am 🤗❤️.
Wonderful piece 👌
Let me not talk much for now, before they'll say I am giving out expo. However, let me comment on something.
You can create an account and play or practice the game for as long as you want. The only thing is that you won't be able to earn anything at all (from the game).
Which means you can practice and if you think you're getting a hang of it, and if it us something you can do then you can go ahead to purchase the Spellbook (if you want).
I hope it is clear.
Whatttt!!
Please talk oo😀😀 or should I come via Dm? Hahaha , my ears are itching to hear that @ksam 🤗
Wow, this addition is clearer now . I will try practicing the game first. Thanks a bunch 👍

Welcome to Splinterlands.
Steem Monsters was one of the first nfts I bought. I didn't even know they were nfts back then. Then I bought some krypto kittys. But I can't play with the kittys.
If you need any help playing Splinterlands don't hesitate to ask.
Happy Gaming!
Amazing ...many thanks 🤗👍
Loved this post and how you formatted it.
For Splinterlands, I think you'll earn back the $10 then start profit if you played every day, but it's hard to do it if you only bought the starter pack, you won't win reward cards unless you bought or rented enough cards to reach the bronze level.
If you're not confident in this game, I recommend renting, but buying is the better for long-term, because you can always sell them back and recover at least most of your money.
These were my newbie advises as a Splinterlands player who doesn't play much anymore.
!PIZZA !LUV !LOLZ !CTP

Hello
Since everyone is done with this assignment, I'll just make an assessment of what you have done and notify you if there's any correction. This is important so that we make some clarifications and move on with the correct info.
First of all, I appreciate you for attempting this exercise. Many find this subject confusing because it is, but you demonstrated your competence and ability to assimilate even hard subject matters. It is highly commendable.
☆ You really demonstrated great mastery of this Subject, you know, and it is evident in your work.
☆ Your explanation of what Blockchain Games are is wonderful. In the same way, your attempt at answering all the questions; NFTs and Splinterlands.
Thank you for this piece.
Just an additional info:
Splinterlands is an Ecosystem of its own and it has so many currencies running in the Ecosystem.
There are many others, but they aren't classified as in-game tokens because you can't win them inside the game.
Only, Dark Energy Crystals (DEC) can be won in Splinterlands game, and it is also part of Splinterlands tokens.
Also, for the acquisition of NFTS you said:
This is true, but then you can also win them or purchase them as well.
Thank you once more for this great piece.
I hope you find this info helpful
Shalom
Wowww
This is exactly an observation I just pointed in our last task which is Task 7.
You know sometimes we submit this task thinking that we got it all, but corrections like this will yield a good result in our learning process.
Thank you so much for taking your time to read this again , this helpful tips are welcomed
They are valued , thank you 👍👌💪
